Quarters Hostel

Colonial District, the Quays & Marina Bay


Right in the heart of Boat Quay, Quarters Hostel welcomes guests into a cool pale-pink, cafe-esque reception-dining area, perfect for meeting other travellers. Choose from eight-, four- and two-bed dorms, with sleek built-in capsules. Rooms are small – it's the centre of the city after all – but the soft piped tunes make it feel like a fancy hotel. Female-only dorms are available.
