Finding the Very best of Bargain Accommodation in Southeast Asia
When you are planning your journey around the Globe, finding comfortable backpacker accommodation on a restricted budget may appear a difficult job. However, unlike the bed-ridden dorms and cockroach-infested hostels that form your worst fears, a little money can stretch a long way in Southeast Asia, if you know where to look! If you're prepared to snatch your pack and head only a short walk from the most popular 'backpacker areas' featured in the likes of the Lonely Planet, then some great deals are easily found.
Prices vary significantly between countries. A basic room in Bangkok in the main visitor hub of the Khao San Road, will cost you circa 300 baht (approx. GBP6 or USD9), and we're chatting basic. However, move away from the main street and clean, simple rooms can be rented for half this cost.
Heading north from Bangkok to the less populated Chiang Mai, your 300 baht can get you a multitude of 'flashpacker ' luxuries, from a pool to air conditioning and heaven forbid, even a hot shower!
Cambodia is less costly, while you can expect to either lower your standards or splash more cash in the more touristy areas like Koh Samui and Koh Phi Phi (Southern Thailand).
In Laos 150 baht will go a long way, or you can save the pennies and go basic with a waterfront bamboo hut for your stay.
But wherever in Southeast Asia you are staying, the worry can be taken out of the process by preparing beforehand. Head to an internet café and snap yourself up a deal, particularly around popular calandar events such as the Full Moon parties on Koh Phangan where prices inflate and places rapidly fill up. Some kindly owners will even pick you up on arrival, thus sparing you tuk tuk fees, so it's totally worth being that little bit more prepared.
And besides, which sweaty back-packers really want to drag themselves around flicking through a battered travel guide having spent 24 hours on a crowded cramped overnight bus?… not me!
Laura Davies is at present a student from University of Sheffield, doing a summer internship with 'South East Asia Backpacker Magazine' a print and online resource for anybody travelling the area and looking for backpacker friendly accommodation on the cheap. Helping students like herself to enjoy back packing around Southeast Asia.

A backpack fitted with pocket(s) that are suspended on the wearer"s front side (chest) and loaded in such a way that the load in the front and the load in the back are about equal is called a bodypack. The majority of the load on a bodypack is carried by the hips.
