Guest rooms at the hostel are equipped with a private bathroom equipped with a shower. Everything. Cozy place with free coffee and snacks. Free washing machine. Great view on the sea. And the most important: a really warm welcome and the owner, William, really makes you feel like part of the family. We had an amazing stay here. William is the best host you can think of. Very professional and fast when it comes to booking tours or diving sessions. But also always in for a good talk, good time, party, he really becomes a friend since the 1st day. The rooms are very clean and the place really has an appropriate name « the nest », it is how you feel staying here. I highly recommend this place for every kind of stay.

Located in Kuching, 8.3 km from Borneo Convention Centre Kuching, Upspot Kuching Waterfront Premium Hostel provides air-conditioned rooms and a shared lounge. The property is around 41 km from Fort Margherita Kuching, 41 km from Harmony Arch Kuching and 41 km from Charles Brooke Memorial Kuching. The property is non-smoking and is situated 11 km from Sarawak Stadium. The Amenities Location I initially booked just one night at Upspot Kuching Waterfront Premium Hostel, but ended up extending my stay for three more days—it’s that good! This place truly feels like a home away from home, offering everything a traveler could need. The amenities are top-notch: a well-equipped workspace (ideal for digital nomads!), a modern kitchen, cozy dining area, relaxing TV lounge, and even washing machines and dryers (a lifesaver for long-term stays). But the real standout is its location. Nestled near the Kuching Waterfront, you’re steps away from the riverfront promenade, historic attractions, charming cafes, and vibrant local markets. Exploring the city couldn’t be easier! Whether you’re passing through for a night or settling in longer, Upspot delivers comfort, convenience, and great value. I’d return in a heartbeat—highly recommended for solo travelers, couples, or anyone seeking a clean, social, and well-located stay. Don’t miss this gem! 🌟
