About

The Manor By Mingle - Poolside Access Next Door

The Manor By Mingle places you in the thick of Kuala Lumpur's historic core, a 9-minute walk from the ornate Sin Sze Si Ya Temple. The hostel keeps things simple but well-run, with a terrace for unwinding and free Wi-Fi that actually works. A 24-hour reception means late arrivals are never a problem, and the shared kitchen and laundry facilities make longer stays easy.

The name says it all: for a small extra fee you get access to the pool next door, a rare perk for a budget stay in this part of town. Guest reviews consistently call out the friendly, helpful staff and the social atmosphere that makes it easy to meet other travellers. The rooms are comfortable and the air-conditioning effective, but be prepared for noise from fellow guests in the evenings.

In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

3 reasons to book
  • Facilities that punch above the price — The hostel racks up an 8.9 rating for facilities, with guests calling out the pool access next door and the multiple water dispensers scattered throughout the building.
  • Staff that actually care — Multiple reviews highlight the friendly, helpful team — one guest was allowed to check in early and received a room upgrade without asking.
  • A social, easy-to-meet-people vibe — The common areas and organised social events make it simple for solo travellers to connect, as one reviewer noted.

Worth weighing

3 to weigh
  • Noise travels — A recurring theme in reviews is noise from other guests chatting late into the night — if you're a light sleeper, pack earplugs.
  • Bathroom hygiene could be better — At least one guest mentioned that bathroom cleanliness was below par, which is worth noting if you're particular.
  • Basic comfort scores — Comfort gets the lowest category rating at 7.5 — the beds are fine but not plush, and five in a dorm can be cramped.

“Excellent value — comfy beds, lively vibe, and a perfect spot for meeting people. Location was great for sightseeing and the staff went above and beyond.”

8Verified guest

“Staff were brilliant, letting us check in early and even upgrading our room. Walking distance to the main sights, and the cheap rate with breakfast was a bonus. Only downside was other guests talking loudly late at night.”

“A charming little hotel with lovely decor — the photos don't do it justice. Cozy room, would happily stay again.”
