Rooms & Rates I booked two nights and stayed five. The mixed dorm is small enough that you actually know everyone, the beds have proper curtains and real mattresses, and the rooftop at sunset is where my whole trip’s friendships happened.— Hannah Brunner, Munich, Germany
Our Features 
The Neighbourhood Read our guests’ reviews What makes Bunkmate, Bunkmate
A 32-bed hostel small enough to feel like a house, in the most characterful corner of the city.
Beds you can actually sleep in
Sprung mattresses, thick privacy curtains, reading lights and charging points on every bunk — not the usual thin-foam afterthought.
A small, social house
Eight-bed dorms, a lounge that fills up by 8pm and hosts who introduce you around. Walk in not knowing a soul; walk out part of the crew.
Right in Kampong Glam
Four minutes from the MRT, two minutes from Haji Lane, surrounded by hawker food, murals and the best people-watching in town.
Local, not touristy
Our walking tours, supper crawls and rooftop nights are run by people who live here — you see the Singapore that locals actually love.

The good stuff, sorted
No drip-fees, no "linen extra" at the desk. The things that make a long stay easy are simply part of the rate.
Kampong Glam is your front garden
Murals, hawker food, the golden mosque and the MRT — all within a few minutes’ walk. This is the Singapore travellers fall for.
Haji Lane & the murals
Singapore’s most photogenic back-lane — indie boutiques, street art and rooftop bars, two minutes from the door.
Sultan Mosque & Bussorah Street
The golden-domed landmark on our doorstep, with a palm-lined street of carpet shops, perfume sellers and shisha cafés.
Hawker suppers
From Arab Street kebabs to a 24-hour prata joint and the legendary stalls a short walk away — your cheapest, best meals in the city.
Tours, suppers & rooftop nights
The easiest way to fall in with the house — all run by hosts who actually live here, all on the noticeboard in the lounge.
Kampong Glam walking tour
A free join-in morning walk through the lanes, murals and history of our quarter, led by a host who lives here.
Hawker supper crawl
A small group heads out two evenings a week to eat our favourite cheap, brilliant local food — you pay only for what you eat.
Rooftop sundowners
BYO or buy-in rooftop hangs as the light goes — the easiest way to fall in with the rest of the house.
Game & movie nights
Rainy-night board games and a projector in the lounge — nobody travels alone for long at Bunkmate.

I booked two nights and stayed five. The mixed dorm is small enough that you actually know everyone, the beds have proper curtains and real mattresses, and the rooftop at sunset is where my whole trip’s friendships happened. Reza walked us to the best prata I’ve ever had. This is how a hostel should feel.
Came over for a work trip with a colleague and the private twin was a steal — a proper lockable room for less than half a hotel, four minutes from the MRT. Spotless bathrooms, fast WiFi for our calls, and a lounge to switch off in afterwards. Would not stay anywhere else in town now.
As a solo woman the female dorm was perfect — quiet, its own washroom, keycard floor, and a host on site all night so I never felt uneasy. But downstairs is so social I made friends from six countries. The supper crawl with Arjun was the highlight of my whole Southeast Asia trip.
My partner and I did a staycation right here in our own city — easily the best little trip we’ve taken. We live in Singapore and still found corners of Kampong Glam we’d never seen. The double room was cosy and private, the rooftop was magic, and the whole thing cost less than one fancy dinner. Bunkmate gets the balance exactly right.

Honest, all-in pricing
The rate you see is the rate you pay — linen, WiFi, lockers, kitchen and the tours are all in. No surprise resort fees, no "cleaning" add-on at the desk.
Safe, keycard access
Keycard entry to every floor, lockers at every bed, CCTV in the common areas and an overnight host on site — so you can switch off and sleep.
Hosts who actually host
Reza and the team live and breathe Kampong Glam. They’ll plan your day, walk you to supper and remember your name — a hostel, not a check-in counter.
A bed, a rooftop & a city full of friends.
