A social hostel in the downtown grid, well placed for Sule Pagoda and the 19th Street food strip.
Space Boutique Hostel is a social hostel on 32nd Street in Pabedan Township, in the downtown grid of Yangon, well placed for the Sule Pagoda and the 19th Street food strip. The numbered streets of Pabedan form the dense, walkable heart of the old city, with colonial buildings, tea shops, markets and restaurants all within a short walk, so hostel guests can reach most central sights without transport. The 19th Street barbecue and beer area, a popular evening gathering spot for locals and visitors, is nearby, as are Bogyoke Aung San Market and the river. Space Boutique Hostel offers Dormitory Bed and Private Room options, priced at about US$10-25 per night (roughly 43,000-108,000 MMK), among the lowest in the city. Amenities include dorm beds, free Wi-Fi, air conditioning and a common area, where travellers can meet, plan trips and relax. The social atmosphere is the main draw, as the hostel appeals to backpackers and solo travellers who want company and local tips. No restaurant or pool is listed, so meals are taken in nearby cafes and street food stalls, which are cheap and plentiful. Staff at hostels like this commonly help with bus tickets to Bagan, Mandalay and Inle Lake, airport transfers and city tours, which is useful because Yangon is the main entry point to Myanmar. The hostel suits younger and budget-conscious travellers and those on short stopovers. Light sleepers may find a downtown dorm noisy, and privacy is limited in shared rooms. With a rating of 4.1, Space Boutique Hostel is a well-regarded budget option in central Yangon.
