Guest Reviews

• Chun (8/5): - Good Central location with subway and train station near by. Capsule is good for privacy but not so for ventilation. Not all functions work in my capsule. if area is ok for you, and the price is reasonable then go.
• Rachel (10/5): Recommend - Loved the stay! It was comfortable and private to stay in the pods. The staff was helpful
• NANAMI (4/5): - レセプションに通じるエレベーターまで階段で登らないといけなかったので荷物が多いと大変。ランドリーを使ったが現金対応なので現金を持っていないといけないのと、一回の乾燥機では乾き切らず、お金を払わないといけないのが不便だった。 部屋は壁がかなり薄く、夜中まで出入りする人がいたため、なかなか寝れなかった。宇宙コンセプトは良かったが、キー解除の音や全ての音が聞こえるのでかなり次の日は寝不足であった。 ベットマットは薄いので身体が痛くなった。 ただスタッフの人は良い。
• Pat_peeps_Patel (8/5): Unique ambience. - Had the special for the day Pasta Agiolo. Was good. Ambience is probably the biggest selling point for this place. The food isnt very space themed tbh and thats prob something they could work on....idk. The lights and posters and the graffiti were cool, specially in the lift. This does seem more like a place to get kids though...
• julio (10/5): - Es lo que se ve en las imágenes, un hostel ambientado tipo hotel capsula japones, muy buen ambiente, gente muy amable, el barrio por las noches regulinchi, pero la gente inofensiva.
• Patrycja (6/5): Mixed feelings - I have very mixed feelings about the place. Very cool concept. My capsule needed a bit of TLC some lights and panels not working properly. The room was super cold whilst the rest of the property was on the warm side. With individually controlled temperature within the capsule. There were only 2 loos and 4 showers on my floor which I didn't think was a lot but luckily it wasn't the issue as the people at the hostel had very different sleeping/awake patterns. The location is good with many food choices and attractions near by. Public transport in walking distance. There is lingering smell of disinfectant throughout the property. I cannot decide if I would stay again.
• Stephannie (10/5): - I've already reviewed via recent bookings this month. Still 5 Stars. The rest goes in the book. Will send copy to Space Camp. Y'all da best!!
• Deborah (8/5): Great concept - Great place for fit people and young families. Unfortunately getting in and out of capsule was difficult for me and having to carry my suitcase up a flight of stairs was also hard. Oh to be young again
• Stephannie (10/5): - There’s a pillow menu!! One soft one firm. Personally I prefer a firm pillow and firm bed. The temperature knob has two options, turn up to one of the upper three dot speeds for heat, turn down to one of the three dot options for cooling. I’m an extremely light sleeper and was worried about being able to rest. However with an eye mask and ear plugs (loop brand high end) I rest like a baby lots of nice friendly people and super fantastic space crew (staff)
• Kenneth (10/5): - The Space Hotel is uniquely design. The space pods annd lockers are very creative. Easy check in and great price. I recommend checking out there roof top after 8pm. Very cool atmosphere. I would stay again
• Peter (10/5): - Unfortunately, I caught a cold/flu in KL. Because of the way the pods were designed, the mattress is not very thick. So after my last two nights of the six, my back started to tighten up. This is not a complaint, only a comment and I woulgd recommend this hotel to the younger traveler.
• Jack (10/5): - Very Cool and unique themed hotel. The staff allowed early check in and was very friendly and helpful
• Jenny (10/5): - Enjoy capsule
• ana_cantu15 (10/5): Fun experience!! Vip family room. - We stayed here as a family of 4 with 2 boys aged 8 and 10. It was awesome. Such a unique hotel experience. The price was very good, we got the vip room (3c) which had 4 individual pods and it's own shower and toilet as well as a small couch. It was clean and there were laundry facilities which we used. The location is excellent, around 30 second walk to the main entrance of Chinatown and vith a view of the new tall building (forget the name!) staff was friendly too. Would definitely stay again.
• Kim (8/5): - Really unique place to stay and very well themed with great decor, uv lights and plenty of photo opportunities! Family room was perfect for our needs, we loved the sleep pods, really comfortable and a great shower. Just a real shame that the slide was broken as our kids were looking forward to that, and the tvs dont work in the pods. Easily walkable to the Jalan Petaling market.
• Shiying (10/5): - Nice
• 803mkl (10/5): Enjoy a different day and night - This is a new concept hotel model. You can go and experience it. It is very close to Petaling Street and the traditional historical district to experience Chinese culture. This is a good choice for you. Enjoy the food and entertainment time of this hotel.
• caienl2024 (10/5): Space hotel is very clean - This hotel offers best service and a comfortable stay. This hotel is very clean. The staff is welcoming and friendly, and the facilities are top-notch. It's definitely an ideal accommodation choice. it's a home away from home where you can relax, unwind, and create lasting memories. With its exceptional service, cleanliness, and top-notch facilities, it's undoubtedly the ideal choice for discerning travelers seeking a memorable accommodation experience.
• alvinf625 (10/5): Best staying experience in KL - The best hostel I ever stay in Kuala Lumpur,the Hostel is very clean and comfortable to stay,I have a very good sleep when I staying at the hostel. This place is surrounding with alot nice local food and many choices. the location is easy excess to public transport since I landed from The Airport KLIA. strongly recommended
• 258alvint (10/5): GOOD HOTEL - The shared facilities, including bathrooms and common areas, were well-maintained and easily accessible. Despite the communal nature of the hotel, I never felt crowded or uncomfortable. One of the highlights of my stay was the convenient location of the hotel. Situated in the heart of the city, it was within walking distance of many attractions, restaurants, and public transportation options, making it easy to explore the area.
• ryankV5138SX (10/5): Tip top cleanliness and tidiness. - 1. Very clean and comfy bed. Covers and pillow super clean as well. And No smell or whatsoever. Those are very important to me. 2. Customer service is good too....staffs are helpful. Nothing to complain. 3. Space theme is interesting and i like it.
• Cruiser67678430421 (4/5): Urgent Concerns Regarding Cleanliness and Health Standards at The Space Hotel - I am writing to express my deep concern about the cleanliness and hygiene standards during my recent stay at The Space Hotel. Initially, I was impressed by the overall appearance and the excellent behavior of your staff, which prompted me to leave positive reviews on Agoda and Trip Advisor. However, my perception drastically changed on the day of my departure due to a distressing health issue I encountered. Upon entering my capsule, I was immediately met with an unpleasant odor emanating from the blanket, which upon closer inspection, revealed itself to be a used towel. Additionally, the provided pillow had a foul smell, and upon investigation, I discovered urine spots on it. Despite the outer cover appearing fresh, there were numerous unhygienic spots within the pillow itself. These conditions are unacceptable and deeply concerning, especially considering the potential health risks they pose to guests. Regrettably, the lack of hygiene within my capsule resulted in me falling ill with diarrhea, despite abstaining from consuming anything within the hotel premises. This experience was not only distressing but also significantly impacted my overall impression of The Space Hotel. Furthermore, I encountered several other drawbacks during my stay. The locker provided in the capsule was too small to accommodate even a cabin bag, causing inconvenience to guests with luggage. Moreover, the washroom/restroom suffered from high humidity due to the absence of windows or an exhaust fan, creating discomfort for guests. Additionally, I must highlight the operational inconvenience of The Space Hotel being solely on the third floor, requiring guests to take the lift from the first floor. This could be improved for better accessibility. Given these issues, I cannot recommend staying in a small and narrow capsule without fresh air ventilation. Such cramped accommodations, like dormitories, bunk beds, or capsules, may lead to illness, as experienced firsthand. Good health is crucial for enjoying a trip to its fullest extent. I urge you to take immediate and comprehensive action to address these concerns to ensure the health and well-being of your guests. Your attention to these matters is crucial in maintaining the reputation and quality of service.
• Nader (10/5): - Very helpful and friendly staff the whole facility being cleaned constantly overall a great place to stay if you are ok to sleep in a capsule
• Greig (10/5): Great for kids budget hostel - Great budget hostel with a difference - superb for kids!
• Kawatonell-potato (10/5): Clean, convenient, fun, good value - and service went the extra mile - We took the family room (set of 4 capsules plus private bathroom). We loved it: the room was sparkling clean, the staff were polite and helpful with advice (about the local area, travel [we were heading by train to Butterworth from there], and keeping bags after checked out, while we did last minute shopping). The location was really convenient, right next to the night market. The whole Space theme was brilliantly done, for the kids (age 9 and 13) it was their favorite accommodation on our entire trip across SE Asia. But I have to say, the cherry on the top was that - after our son left his comfort blanket (which he's had since age 2) in the capsule and we headed off up the coast - he was distraught - and the Space hotel team bent over backwards to get the blanket sent to us back home in Europe. I cannot commend the Space Hotel team more for their friendly and efficient service, which frankly, averted what could have evolved to become a childhood trauma ;-)
• Tim (8/5): - The capsule bed is fantastic for the price I paid. Surrounding area don't look safe especially at night where many homeless people wandering around the entrance. Although they don't dont give problems to hotel guests but I dont recommend this place for female solo traveller
• Brandon (10/5): - It was a nice place
• 213stars (2/5): DONT STAY IN THIS HOTEL - Theft is common in this hotel. It is most likely an inside job. Be careful of your belongings even if your capsule is locked. Manager and staff are rude. Better book another hotel. BAD SERVICE. DONT STAY!
• Minseung (8/5): - 직원들도 친절하고 깔끔하니 괜찮습니다. 딱 사소한 두가지가 점수를 깎아 먹었는데요 첫째는 개인사물함이 너무작아 기내용 캐리어도 들어가지 않습니다. 다들 밖에 내 놓긴 하던데 조금 불안하더라구요. 둘째는 두번째날에 캡슐 청소를 안해주더라구요. 원래 그런건지 잘 모르것네요
• Aekytrip (10/5): Best hotel in Chinatown Kuala Lumpur - I went to Kuala Lumpur on May 2023, I am stay at this hotel , when check in staff is completely best service at counter , room very clean , bathroom very clean, I stayed at this hotel is 2nd time, I would like to inform this hotel good value and comfortable for connecting to transportation bus train and connecting to Chinatown,
• Vacation136071 (2/5): The staff did not respond to my reservation request - Attempted to book a capsule at this hotel, since I liked the concept and what I saw on the photos. However, the hotel staff did not respond to my emails and inquiries. Therefore, I had to search for and book another accommodation in Kuala Lumpur.
• Freedom11350028637 (10/5): Lovely and Beautiful Space Hotel in my opinion...is the best place to stay for solo, group and familygroup and family. - After staying in for a few days in January 2023 , this Lovely and Beautiful Capsule Dormitory called Space Hotel , I really like it so much... the room is super cool, dormitory is spick and span, Hot and cold water Shower with Free Shower Gel, Free Hot and Cold water dispenser at Lobby , Capsule price is reasonable. Now whenever I travel to Kuala Lumpur, Space Hotel is my first choice and my place to stay. The whole Dormitory really lived up to it's name... is designed like a Space Concept. The Front Desk Officer MrDihyau, Housekeepers Mr Islam, Mr Sumon is friendly and helpful including Lady Boss Janice. Space Hotel is located in very good location...short walking to Petaling Street Chinatown and many yummy food nearby... popular with the locals and tourists is Foong Coffee shop and Ho Kow Hainan Cafe, Central Market with a Food Court selling good food, reasonable prices and many shops selling souvenirs and Malaysia Quality products is a place to visit. Just book a Grab Car which is very cheap abt RM6 to RM 12 depending on peak hr/off peak hr... not far away is my place to go for shopping, food, IT products is the Famous Bukit Bintang Area. For IT products you must visit Plaza Low Yat, Giant Supermarket @Sungai Wang Plaza is my place to go to buy fruits and drinks. Within walking distance in Bukit Bintang, is the Famous Alor Street Food, LOT 10 Mall and also Beautiful Pavilion Mall. As a experienced traveler, I would highly recommend all Solo traveler and family/group (they also have Family Room) travelers. In my opinion, Space Hotel deserved to be 5 Star rating .
• Travel59972451077 (10/5): Friendly stuff and comfortable! - I had an amazing stay at this hotel! The staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating, always going above and beyond to make my experience comfortable. The location was perfect, with easy access to all the attractions in the city.
• Connector49863732392 (10/5): Worth it. - This is a good hostel. I am impressed by the privacy provided by this hostel. The staff is nice, especially the lady at the counter. They cleaned the place often and I got to met a lot of people, sometime from the country that i did not know existed. It is quite a wholesome experience.
• NorthStar42834035595 (10/5): Keep it up a good work! - Clean and nice environment , helpful and friendly hotel staff, location are very convenient easy to find restaurants and shopping, easy to get public transport. Hotel staff keep it up a good work! Great stay experience.
• Vermzie (2/5): DONT STAY in this hotel. THEFT is very common. - DON’T STAY in this hotel. I experienced theft without even leaving the hotel. The manager and staff are so RUDE in handling my situation. They just told me to go to the police. It seems like they are always handling theft concern commonly. The staff has access to the capsules. You will not feel safe and secured in the capsule. I regretted booking this hotel. Save yourself from stress and don’t book this hotel.
• Milka (8/5): 2 yötä hotellissa - Vietin hotellissa 2 yötä. Kokemus oli oikein hyvä; hotelli on siisti ja miellyttävä. Hotellin ympäristö oli hiukan rauhaton.
• y33L (8/5): Family Capsule with Private Toilet - Spent 1 night with my family at the capsule hotel. We booked the family capsule complete with own private toilet. I cant share toilets with kids around, haha. The capsule hotel is unique and kids enjoyed very much. There are 4 capsules in the family room. There is only 1 small sofa in the room. Room is quite small and honestly, it was a bit inconvenient for a family with 3 small kids. They were climbing up and down the capsule all the time. But overall they enjoyed. We took the kids to Central Market and Chinatown after we checked in. Reception was so kind, he gave the kids each a stationery set. Dinner was at Chinatown, you wont regret. Next morning, we went to Dataran Merdeka and let kids experience KL view. The room is without bfast and there's no cafe in the capsule hotel. But since this hotel is near Chinatown, you wont go hungry. Overall, nice experience for the kids to see KL. Only downside is room is very small and not suitable for small kids confined in the room as there's no space for movement.
• sway_thunders (8/5): Cozy hostel in great location. - Cozy Hostel with great terrace and unique space theme. Shared bathrooms were clean, with hot water and great water pressure. We stayed in on of the private rooms (windowless) which was tiny with no furniture besides the capsule bed and one chair. Great value for money. Staff was very friendly, location was perfect.
• Wei Bin (10/5): - 还不错的体验，蛮有意思的
• Verified traveler (8/5): - OK, but TV in room didn't work though advertised as such. Chinatown 100meters on foot
• Verified traveler (10/5): - OK, but TV in room didn't work. Chinatown 100metrs on foot
• Verified traveler (8/5): お得感 - スタッフの方も親切で何よりアドベンチャー感があります。男性の方が好まれるホテルではないでしょうか？ 宇宙をテーマにしており、ロビーにはスライダーがついていたり宇宙も置いてあったりで遊び心満載です♩ 終始青色の光が目にくるのが気になるのと、バスルームの温度が暑すぎて気持ち悪くなります。 水圧も問題ないですし、ホットシャワーもでます。wifiも繋がりやすかったです。 プライベートも守られるのにこの値段はすごいお得感があります。
• Verified traveler (8/5): - I really liked my stay at space hotel, it was good. Staff was friendly and helping. 😃 i will definitely come back. Cheers
• Verified traveler (10/5): - It good to stay here, nearby popular pace easy to travel get foods n drinks.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Very comfortable and so funtastic hotel.
• Verified traveler (8/5): - 駅から近く、チャイナタウンのメイン通りそばなので食事も格安で済ます事が出来て立地は最高です。ただスーツケースを入れるセーフティボックスが壊れていて滞在中はずっとカプセル内に置くハメになった点がちょっと…。カプセルは広めなので置けない事はないのですが。次回も利用したいと思っていますがちゃんとこういう設備が直っている事を願います。
• Verified traveler (8/5): - De voorzieningen als douche en toilet zijn netjes. Het matras was erg dun, waardoor het vrij hard en oncomfortabel was. Daarnaast lieten de kamers ondanks dat ze afgesloten waren van elkaar veel geluid door. Al met al prima voor een paar nachten.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - ห้องพักสะอาด พนักงานบริการดี เงียบ ไม่วุ่นวาย ทำเลที่ตั้งดีมากๆ เดินทางสะดวก เป็นประสบการณ์ที่ดีที่ได้พักในรูปแบบนี้
• Verified traveler (8/5): - Not much sound proofing in capsule, but generally quite a pleasant stay
• Peter (8/5): good price and location - stay here many times.clean and good location
• Nicole (8/5): - I like the cleaniless of the capsule. It feels safe and easy to use all the features inside. Really cosy n fun. In fact the entire capsule is extremely clean! The rooms which the capsules are placed are lockable too. You need an access card to get into the room where the capsules are. This is good. However the female bathroom does not feel safe. Anyone can go in and the shower doors encourage Peeping Toms. The gaps below and on top of the door is too big. There has to be better safety for the female bathrooms. I would suggest female bathroom to be locked and only accesible by female guests. As for location, it was at a convenient place but it was hard to find the place as it was hidden n tucked in one odd corner. My taxi went round 3x the same location as we could not see the signboard. In reality, the location was just right in front of us, just opposite Texas Chicken n lots of eateries. I would suggest putting a bigger banner for arriving guests to notice. Washing and drying of laundry was only RM5 and it was easy to operate. Overall, very good experience and cheap too. Im surprice how nice my stay had been. Its really quite good!!!!
• Verified traveler (8/5): Fine for short stay - Good place for short stay...TV didn’t work and towels provided are too small
• Sergei (10/5): The best capsule hotel I've ever stayed--RECOMMEND - I have stayed in quite a few capsule hotels around the world but I have to say that this is one of the best. The bed and pillow were comfortable surprisingly enough. Inside the capsule was plenty of fresh air. TV, radio, blue lights, various chargers -- everything you need. The place was clean including bathrooms. Located right in the middle of China town. 20 minute walk from bus central. The place was just simply cool -- see my pictures. I will definitely stay here again and high recommend!
• Verified traveler (10/5): - cool and futuristic design; clean bed and facility.
• Johnnie (10/5): Convenient and no-nonsense stop. - Central KL location. Secure. Clean. Quiet. Strong Wi-Fi.
• Verified traveler (8/5): - Very cool and seems like they've only opened within a year. Good quality linen.
• Verified traveler (8/5): Very comfortable. - Modern, clean, very attentive staff and very close to transit options.
• Verified traveler (8/5): I would stay again. - Clean, simple, modern, very good location and affordable. I would stay again.
• ROZIAH (10/5): Great location n value - Great location easy access to almost all tourist destination, great value for money, and very nice space-y hotel
• MH (10/5): - Nice hotel with some minor improvements needed (eg. Tv and bathroom)
• kean mean (8/5): Good clean capsule hotel - The capsule are new and clean. There is drinking water machine provided in lobby area. Check in staff is friendly.
• Verified traveler (10/5): Better than expected - Great for layover.. take the bus to Sentral then train one stop. This place is better than I expected. Very comfortable. It was spacious and I really liked the blue backlight to add to the cozy feel. Negatives: soap in the shower was empty and I had to ask for my passport back forgotten on the scanner. I would have liked if the capsule was just a tad colder. Overall great.
• Katheryn (10/5): The Best Space Hotel Ever! - It was an amazing hostel located right in the middle of Chinatown near Central Market, Petaling Night Market, and the subway. The staff are helpful and around 24/hrs. I got lost getting there and was still able to check in after midnight. I would recommend this place to everyone as it was not expensive either. You had your own locker, bed, mini tv, and could control the AC. It was in a great location and everything was so clean. They even have a slide! They did not have a map so make sure that you get a map at the airport or bus station if you can.
• Kiran (10/5): Lovely space themed capsule hotel - Lovely capsules and theme of the hotel
• Mark (10/5): Recommended - I stayed here during a lay-over on my flight. It was a very comfortable and pleasant stay and afforded plenty of privacy.
• Wattan (8/5): - It was all good, hotel was good but lift or escalator should be working, had to walk upstairs till 4rth floor!
• Verified traveler (8/5): Good - It was fantastic except the air con being too cold and the room light peaking inside the cabin making it hard to sleep.
• Joachim (10/5): Awesome space theme - I like this space theme. More comfort and private in the room. But very cold inside the sharing room like the temperature of space.
• Roland (10/5): Thumbs up! - The location is good, good showers, friendly staff, the capsule is clean and cool. I had a pleasant stay at here :)
• john (10/5): Worth the stay - The slide makes the hotel different from others which worth a try New design with strong space theme Clean and confortable
