Great place to start our travels in Bali. The pool area was our favourite and it was a great location for anything in the Canggu area.

Fantastic rooms: clean setup with plenty of storage space for your belongings and the beds are structured well so there are no creeks from other members. Beds were very comfy, pool is fantastic and restaurant had great foot.

Kosone is the best hostel in Canggu by far. Kosone is very centrally located- about a 5 minute stroll to the beach/ old mans. Its also very close walking distance to other popular bars and restaurants (Luigi’s / Pretty Poison/ Shady Shack/ Betelnut/ Cafe Avocado). Because of this, I rarely needed to get a scooter/ taxi anywhere. The facilities are fantastic. Our bartender Ali was lovely and we enjoyed happy hour cocktails at the pool bar. The hostel also has activities most nights to entertain the guests- Monday movie nights, bbq Sundays, Pool parties on Saturdays. I have always found the service staff to be lovely and very attentive to the customers. The dorms contain super comfy double beds. As well as always having hot water, the showers included shower gel, and towels can be changed as often as the guest likes for clean fresh towels at no extra charge (Just an initial deposit of 100k for the towel which is later refunded). The reception staff were also great- always friendly and when I needed to gather some documents to extend my visa, I was helped with printing and they offered further advice on what else I may need. The hostel and restaurant stayed open for Nyepi day, which was really appreciated! In addition to that, the owner and staff devised a whole Nepyi schedule for the guests which included pool games, a scavenger hunt and 6 movie screenings of recent releases. I would strongly recommend Kosone to anyone passing through Canggu!

Hi, Thank you for taking the time to review Kosone. We are glad to hear you liked everything. With regards to the curtains, we do apologise. Unfortunately you must have been staying during our implementation of this feature and sometimes awaiting for materials can take longer than staff expect. All dorm beds now have curtains and we hope that you will still choose to come and stay with us again! Thank you, The Gu Village team.

Kosone Hostel is an awesome place to stay while in Canggu. It's still very new but I can see this being a hard place to get a bed in the future once it popularizes. Super clean and chill. The beds are very large and the food is excellent.

A really nice hostel, great spacious rooms with easy access to showers/bathrooms. It’s maybe around 5/10 minutes walk to the beach and plenty of great restaurants nearby! Would definitely recommend.

Stayed here for 4 nights and this is the BEST hostel I’ve ever stayed in. Everything is still brand new and spanking clean as they only opened a month ago and the breakfast selection is amazing!!! My only gripe about it is there are no curtains for the beds, perhaps the hostel could consider that to offer more privacy to guests sharing the dorm room. But overall amazing stay in a fantastic location, this will be my go to accom whenever I’m in Bali

Can highly recommend this hostel! Nice rooms with a comfortable bed and plenty of space for your suitcase and other things. Clean toilets and shower area. The pool area is big with great sunbeds all over and lots of space. Opportunity to do yoga included in your price in the morning on the rooftop. Some very nice instructors. And you can do a 20 min massage every day. Also very good quality. Food and drinks are also good so you can for sure have breakfast included in your price. I enjoyed most of the things I tried on the breakfast menu. The staff are really helpful and they are always providing you a smile and great service. All the staff from whoever u meet from housekeeping , reception, restaurant or the barteam. I dont have much bad to say about this place at all. Location of where the hostel is , is also very good. Close to beach and restaurants. I will for sure come back and I will also recommend it to other friends and travelers I meet. Thanks for it!

Good place to stay but service could improve
We stayed at Kos One for 6 nights. We had booked dorms with 4 beds in. The 4 bed room turned out to be a 8 bed room with no place at all for the suitcase. We addressed our disappointment over the room to the staff and got the opportunity to change to a private room after discussions with the manager. This was good even though we lived 3 people in a private room suited for 2 people. One of the managers had a bad attitude towards us for the rest of our stay witch was a bit sad. She was questioning towards all our request and was not helpful. The housekeeping staff were friendly and helpful. When we arrived we didn’t get information about all the activities the hostel offered for free. That would have been nice and we would probably have utilized it more if we knew about it. The breakfast was super! The lunch by the pool was a disappointment with small portions and not tasty. During our stay in the pool area we saw several persons, including ourselves, slipped when entering the pool. We could not see any sign etc as a warning for that. During the mornings they put chlorine on the edge of the pool. This was really itching to get on the skin and bleach our swimwear. Overall a nice place to stay and a perfect location. All tough parts of the service level must step up to meet the expectations.

The have an amazing pool and it's in the middle of the centre of Canggu. The rooms are very private. Large beds with curtains for privacy. The weird thing is, you can book one bed for 2 in a dorm. But the rooms were clean. Lot's of space for your stuff. Lot's of charge points for your phone. Close by Old Man's.

Hello! Thank you for staying with us and your kind words. The only thing we would like to make clear that two people (or more) are not allowed to stay in one bed. It is against our rules. Each bed is for one person only. We hope to see you again. Kind Regards
