Location of Adler Luxury Hostel?
Stay in the heart of Singapore!
The location is simply fantastic. You will be staying in the very heart of the city centre, right in China Town. China Town itself is a must-visit in Singapore. ”China Town“ and ”Telok Ayer“ metro stations are just 1 street away. Right in front you have the Sri Mariamman Temple, a beautiful temple to visit. Take off your shoes and walk in.
The Hop-on-Hop-Off Tourist bus leaves directly from Adler’s front door. Perfect!
Around the corner you have many bars to go for a drink. The bars are The Coconut Club, Beaujolais, Bar Naked and Mortimer. Just walk out of the hostel and turn left, and take the first left. Here you are.
For eating in the area, just two streets away, we fell in love with Yi Xin Vegetarian. It is incredibly cheap (less than $2/ 2€ per dish). Get some rice and order whatever you fancy from the food display. Many dishes look like meat or fish and are made 100% out of tofu. Super tasty for meat-lovers too! The medium-priced option in the area is Old Nyonya, the food court to eat with the locals.
If you want to treat yourself, visit Senso to get some delicious Italian food.

Adler Luxury Hostel in a Review
So, still curious about Adler Hostel, right? If you follow us on Instagram, you may have seen our live-walk through Adler Hostel.
Join us on Instagram for our walks through 5 Star Hostels. We usually announce them beforehand via Facebook.
Let’s get a creamy coffee in the lobby in this luxury hostel in Singapore. It is time to find out what’s all the fuss about.
The Design wows
It does not take long to realize, there’s some deep design passion here. You are greeted by the reception desk on the left-hand side. Right behind you will see numerous seating options.
Maybe the sofa to play some PlayStation?
We prefer the seating corner to have a quiet read. Up to you!
Adler Hostel stands out for many reasons. The location is simply perfect, and the interior speaks for itself. The unique part we see are their spacious rooms to unwind.
What types of rooms are here?
There is a wide range of shared room types available. These are
- Queen Bed in Female Dorm
- Single Bed in Female Dorm
- King Bed in Mixed Dorm (for couples)
- 1 extra-large double bed
- Mixed Dorm
There are no private room types available. For couples, we recommend the King Bed in Mixed Dorm.
Read: our full guide to hostel room types.
Especially the female dorms are very popular here. There’s a simple reason for that. These rooms are completely designed for the modern female-traveler.
We were in our dorm, sitting on the sofa, when three Americans came in.
”WOWZIE!“, exclaimed one of the three.
The other one said ”this is awesome, so much space“, when he glimpsed his pod for the first time. They were actually three soldiers, stationed in Japan. They were in town for a city break.
We learned during our stay that this is quite a standard reaction when people walk into the rooms.
On our live Instagram-walk through the hostel, we showed every single corner.
From the lobby, up to the dorms and facilities. Interestingly enough, the reaction of our community was quite similar.
Every single bed comes with a fluffy towel and a bottle of Adler Hostel-branded water.
The beds are so-called pods, giving you the privacy you need in a dorm. Every pod has its curtain as well as a big locker inside. The locker is seriously huge. It easily fits a big backpack.
The locker does not require a padlock. Simply put in your own code and lock it. Follow the instructions on the locker. It is super easy, you will see.
Nevertheless, we actually the padlock a must-have on our packing list for hostels.
Quick story: We actually managed to lock our stuff in, forgetting the code. Don’t worry, the staff has a master key, and they can open it for you again. Lucky us!

How social is Adler?
The guests at Adler Hostel Singapore come from all over the place.
We have seen many hostels with a specific group of travelers. But at Adler, you will find travelers of all ages and nationalities. That being said, there is one thing they all have in common: they are keen about premium hostels.
We love to chat.
Many of our fellow travelers told us, that they picked this accommodation for its design and reputation. No coincidence; after all, this is why we are here as well.
So, what about the vibes, you may ask?
At the moment, there are no social events planned by the team.
The breakfast time is the best to get in touch with your fellow hostel mates.
If you are a solo-travelers, looking for a place to mingle, we would rather recommend COO Boutique Hostel.
Check out our gull guide to the best hostels in Singapore for more details.
One disadvantage we have to mention:
The breakfast at Adler Hostel is basic.
There is bread and jam and coffee. Although the coffee is really good, the rest was average. Yet, we think for this price and the quality of the rooms and such, it is completely OK.
We just want to mention this to have this review of Adler Hostel complete!
Other than that, people usually head out to explore Singapore.
They visit China Town, take the metro to the gardens on the bay, have a drink on the most famous rooftop terrace, you name it.
Travelers in Singapore are typically in town only for 2-3 days.
If you want to mingle and connect later on, come to the lounge in the evening. This is when travelers head back home to have a quick rest.
Mostly people head out to have a few cold ones.
There are a couple of hip bars right around the corners of Adler Luxury.
The owner of Adler Hostel
The hostel is named after the owner himself.
Adler, that’s his name, is a world-traveler. He traveled around Europe and fell in love with the concept of hosteling.
As with many hostel origins, this was the kick-off to his own hostel dream. He started his passion-project back in late 2012.
Ever since, his hostel has become one of the best luxury hostels in Asia and the world.
Since its opening, the hostel has expanded to a new building, just two buildings next to the main one. Here you have the breakfast lounge and the spacious dorms with double-beds.
Adler is full of new ideas, and he keeps improving and adapting the accommodation to travelers’ needs.
