Set in George Town, less than 1 km from Northam Beach, Sogor Female Dormitory offers air-conditioned accommodation and a shared lounge. The property is around 1.8 km from 1st Avenue Penang, 2.9 km from Wonderfood Museum and 1.7 km from Penang Times Square. The property is non-smoking and is situated 1.4 km from Rainbow Skywalk at Komtar. Sogor Female Dormitory is honestly one of the best hostels I’ve ever stayed at! I feel so lucky to have had the chance to stay here for 3 nights—it was a fantastic experience from start to finish. Even though I came as a solo backpacker, I never felt alone. I ended up meeting two amazing foreigners during my stay, and we connected instantly. The environment is clean, hygienic, and very well maintained. The washrooms are spotless, the laundry area is convenient, and the public space is super comfortable—perfect for relaxing or chatting with other travelers. This hostel gave me not only a safe and comfy place to stay, but also meaningful memories and new friendships. I highly recommend it to any solo female traveler out there. I’d easily rate it 10/10!
