Betel Box Asia Pte. Ltd.

I stayed at this hostel during the F1 weekend and it was quite expensive compared to my other stays in SE Asia. But that’s expected since all properties in Singapore are super pricey during the event. At least this one was reasonably priced compared to others. Check-in time followed strictly, but if you arrive early, you can safely leave your bags in the hall. They accept card payments. I stayed in the dormitory, bed was okay and AC wasn't strong and room stayed warm during night time. Bathrooms were super clean throughout my stay. The staff (sorry I forgot the names of the morning and night shift people) were very friendly and helped me plan my trip. At night sound level was high due to a nearby bar. There’s no charging point near the bed. There are plenty of Vietnamese food options nearby, but most places close before 10 p.m. Bus transport is more convenient than MRT from here. Overall, a good choice if you’re looking for a hygienic and safe place to stay.

Loved the place absolutely, came in September 2025 and it was amazing, great value for affordable money. Worth all my ringgits spending here, suitable for backpackers; you can even make friends here ;) I did and we still follow on each other ig. Lively place, good enough breakfast, close to public transportation, close to restaurants and mini convenience shops. Owner, Tony, is super duper helpful and knowledgeable. Made my stay amazing there. Can ask him anything there. Will definitely come back here when I backpack again to Singapore.

Stayed 3 nights and loved it! Clean and comfortable hostel in the charming Joo Chiat neighborhood, with amazing food all around. Great connectivity to the city and airport — perfect base for exploring Singapore on a budget.

Excellent rates is you call direct. Clean, quiet and excellent location to get around Singapore on buses. The staff are kind and helpful… great food options at your doorstep … can’t ask for more

Wow, tell all your friends, this is such a cool hostel! Never had a longer check-in in my life, just because Tony wanted to explain aaaall the good stuff that's happening in Singapore. And the stuff's good indeed! The sandwiches at the included breakfast made me feel right at home. And there's plenty of games, books etc. (even skateboards), so you never have to feel bored. Be aware that there aren't any curtains to give you privacy in the dorm, but the rest makes up for that big time! Thanks again Tony! :)

Tony is a legend, the best receptionist (is also the owner) i found so far, and I went in many hostels believe me. He love his job and he does his best to help you. Clean rooms, I felt safe, good open space, there is everything you need. Good quality price.

Had a great night at betel box backpackers, its quite a vibe and staff member was also lovely and friendly. Would def. recommend and come back.

Tony will go above and beyond to make your stay comfortable. They send you a brochure with lots of information about what to do in Singapore and how to move around. We stayed in the 5 bed female dorm which was very spacious and lovely. The shared bathrooms were clean and equipped with the basics. Also, the commo area was huge and they even sell drinks. Last but not least, breakfast was basic but very handy in such an expensive country. Everything was pretty good. Some toilets on the third floor were tiny and I kept getting wet with the shower by mistake but it wasn't a big deal. Also, bear in mind that prices are usually high everywhere and although it was one of the cheapest options, still far more expensive than any other country in the area.
