Not-so-hidden gem in the heart of Chinatown.
Right in the middle of popular Pagoda Street in Chinatown. Lots of great food stalls are steps from the Royal Hostel. Also steps away are good shopping, a couple malls and the Downtown and North East train lines. Also about 15-20 minute walks from Clarke Quay, Central Business District and Marina Bay Sands.
Staff is super friendly and accommodating. Wifi is sufficient in bunk area and very good in the communal areas.
Great location, great staff and a great value hostel. Two thumbs up. 👍👍
The location is really close to mrt and everything is perfect. Friendly staff and the scent of the bed is so good. Clean. Overall satisfied and out of my expectation.
Perfect location, just right next to Chinatown MRT, room is just fine size for 4 beds, bathrooms are clean. Not the best value especially at weekend. But still an affordable price with good location.

Fang2 was so informative and helpful.
I admit that I choose to not spend the night at hostel because of the smell in the room. Probably because one of the guest produce odor, also I found shoes and towels in the room, that might contribute to damp aroma in the room.

Not honest
I have made a reservation for single bed but when I checked in they said it was taken and gave me a bunk bed which I get the top! I told the lady I just had a surgery and I am not fit to climb up and down and she changed for me to bottom part. I am not happy that they do not honor the booking choice!
I'm a Singaporean and this is my first-ever stay in a hostel in my life! The hostel right next to the entrance of Chinatown MRT Station. The place is quiet and peaceful (at least in the dead of the night and early morning). The 3rd storey bunk is comfortably air-conditioned and the bed is nice to sleep on. Access in and out is available 24 hours. There is also a 24 hours MacDonald's just 5 minutes away, so you know where to head to should you have midnight cravings. The staff were friendly and helpful. The toilets could be better maintained and washed though. Overall, a pleasant experience staying here for 5 days!
I really enjoy the stay at Maple Lodge@Chinatown. The room was clean and the location is very nice. The people also very friendly and willing to help you whenever you have any problem. However, there is no free mineral water. We have to buy it ourselves.
The receptionist Fang was very friendly, the hostel is not very big but have all u needs, good location in downtown. The only thing I dislike was have to be barefoot inside their hostel but they do provide some indoor shoe for u but again I dont like it to share shoe with others.
한국에서는 MAN또는 WOMAN을 쓰지 Male Female은 거의 안 씁니다 보통 한글로 여성도미토리라고 표시해도 클릭해들어오는 경우가 많은데 여긴 그낭 female room 이래놔서 남자인 제가 실수로 예약 말레이시아에서 밤새고 피곤한몸으로 와서 예약실수 및 방이 있네 없네 기다리고 그러느라 여행시간낭비 및 스트레스를 받았고 결국 엑스트라차지 20달러를 지불했습니다 20달러는 이 동네 호스텔
하루 숙박비입니다.
제 잘못도 있지만 좀더 알아보기쉽게 표시를 안한 업소도 잘못이 있다고 생각하며 무엇보다 숙박예약이라는 개념과 사업 그리고 어플이 생긴지가 언젠데 남자인 제가 여성전용도미토리 예약을 해도 예악과 결제를 막지않고 다 되게 만든 호텔닷컴의 잘못이 크다고보며 건너편에 로얄롯지가 또 있는데 거긴 빈방(빈침대)이 많았습니다. 서로 다르다고하고 지금은 또 로얄롯지가 아닌 호스텔명 메이플롯지라고 표시되는데 그런건 제가 안필요없고
제가 무슨 큰 잘못을 했다고 엑스트라차지내고 이런 고생과 여행손실을 봐야하죠? 거의 다 남녀 혼성도미토리인데
왜 여기만 유난이에요?
It’s convenient and good place since it’s very close to MRT Chinatown. The staff (I dont know her name) is very nice. If I travel to Singapore again in the future, I’m gonna stay over at this hostel for sure.
