Stayed for 2 nights in the six bed mixed dorm and absolutely enjoyed it. The room was spacious, they have really good mattresses, reading lights and lockers. Everything is quite new and well taken care of. The staff is really nice and helpful, the breakfast is big, I would definitely come back!

One of the best hostels I have stayed in. Great facilities throughout, a clean and welcoming hostel. Anyone wishing to spend a few days in Georgetown should consider Ryokan. The staff are wonderful too and this hostel provided the perfect place to relax and recover after the partying in Thailand.

I stayed in Ryokan for a week. It was really nice and clean. The staff was also very helpful and friendly. Apart from that, the hostel is well-located. If you would just like to chill, this would be a perfect place because Muntri St. is pretty quiet, but still very central and close to the attractions. I would recommend staying... More

I stayed for several nights in one of the mixed dorm rooms and it was great. The place is very quiet and clean and the staff is very friendly and helpful. If you are looking for a quiet hostel that is very clean this is the place to go.

Ryokan is a stylish and clean hostel with a number of dorm rooms (and a few private rooms). Many of the rooms are quite small and the bunk beds are crammed into them with pretty much no extra space. I stayed in a 4 bed dorm room the first night and in the 6 bed "loft" the second night (the... More

Everything was good. The only set back is when there is a group or young people staying in the place, where they tend to be ignorance of the other ppl staying there as well. As a prewar building the flooring is usually made from planks and the wall of the building is thin. Common sense is you have to walk... More
