Great new, clean hostel in a great location in Mirissa, near the beach and the main road. The rooms were new and clean and the staff super friendly, giving us water bottles to refill and telling us about their experiences in Sri Lanka. Bonus point for their arrangements with solar panels and electric aggregates to survive any power cut. We would recommend The Hostel to anyone visiting Mirissa.

You feel like in a luxurious resort and not a hostel. Its incredibly clean, they clean the dorms everyday and it smells amazing, they also change bed linen and towels every second day. The dorms a big with spacious locker for your bag, the bed is super comfy and has power sockets, little table and a lamp. The pool is clean and almost always in a shade so you can chill there. The property is massive and feels so relaxing. They do daily yoga and also have a WhatsApp group where they organise daily activities. You can have cheap breakfast and drinks there. You can also pay by card

The family room in Banana bunks was great for our family. But it is not really the room that was important- it was the use of the fabulous Petti Petti Beach Club.This great beach club is right on the beach (whereas the accommodation is across a main road, a minute’s walk away) and owned by the same people, so you get a discount on the food which is delicious and great value. We made the most of having breakfast, lunch and dinner here and all meals were great, along with lounging around the pool and hiring surfboards from the beach. The staff were very friendly too, so all in all a great place to stay in Mirissa.

The bathroom wa really cosy and clean! The people here were very friendly. They gave us a shower after we checked out and went to the beach. We could leave our bags behind and he also went to get some bottles of water for us because it was late at night. Would really recommend this place!

The staff! The guys are doing it great. They try to include everyone in the group. It's a social and chill hostel that go partying eveywhere else so it's perfect. If you feel like party you join if you don't feel like partying you stay in the nicest common areas talking and having a tea with others. They have daily activities to make it like a family

All hostels in Mirissa

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.
