First Look at Designer Hostel Makati Junction Hostel

Although I travel a lot, even alone at times, I have never tried staying in a hostel ever because I fear I might be staying with a group of creeps or weirdos and sorts.  Sorry!  Yeah I am a pampered traveler or at least I keep caution when travelling alone.   I like to stay in my own private room, in my own bed and my own bathroom.  Because at the end of my adventure exploring a new place, I want to relax and get energized for the next day that I may not have the energy to socialize and mingle with some roomies.

However, the concept of hostels are a meant for budget travelers and backpackers who would rather spend their money on something else than just a place to crash in.  After all, they won’t be spending as much time in their room when traveling and exploring their destination

While I still have not stayed in, I was one of those who got the first look at a designer hostel in Gen. Luna Street in Makati, the Makati Junction Hostels My first impressions was NICE! It looks very cozy and every nook and cranny are picture worthy!  So without further ado, here’s how it looks in there.

We went at about 9pm so my building pic is dark. But Makati Junction Hostels is a 4 story building with more than 100 beds!

Here’s the lobby:

With the President of Tajara Leisure & Hospitality Group Cyndy Tan Jarabata and his brother and interior designer Edwin Uy who is responsible for all the instagrammable corners of this place.

The TV room!

I like the concept of the glass window as it shows the map to the place!Love the TV room!

The cute lounging area with a hanging tent!

The kitchen and dining area

The kitchen and the hotel staff

Now let’s take a look at the rooms!

Here’s the ladies room, it has two double deck beds and a huge mirror with pretty girly graphics!

Here’s another room with 6 beds 3 double deck beds and inside are two private rooms with a double deck bed good for two people. There’s a restroom inside.

On the 2nd floor are single bed rooms with four beds inside!

And a common bathroom with shower and comfort room with hair dryer and lavatory.

 

 

Oh yeah, they use key cards for their rooms!

And some friendly reminders

Tall people watch your heads or watch out for petite girls like me hahahah!

If you want to drink there’s more downstairs

A bed in a 4 bed room is Php600.00, a bed in a 2 person private room is Php900.00 a night. There’s 20% discount for their opening night so you might wanna see it for yourself.

This was during the f*ckvalentine event at Junction Hostel last February 13, 2014. We were offered to stay but we decided not to that day as we have Vday plans next day hahaha!  But I / we will be back and stay on another night soon and tell you about the experience. At the moment I am impressed at this designer hostel.  Designer hostels are upcoming trend in the hospitality and accommodations business in the country and Ms. Cindy said expect more hostels like this from them!

Looking forward to stay here and meet new friends or explore the vicinity and as well as their other hostels opening around the country soon!
