BestHostels Indonesia (BestHostels.co.id) is a startup company in Bali that serves as an Online Travel Agency (OTA) providing dedicated booking services for sharing accommodation such as hostels, bunkbeds, dormitory rooms, and capsule hotels. Before officially becoming BestHostels Indonesia, the forerunner of this company actually began the journey from an Instagram account @besthostelsbali which was originally formed as a promotional platform for hostel accommodation in Bali, which at that time was not well-known to tourists, especially domestic tourists. BestHostels Indonesia was founded by Rahmadi Aditya Putra (CEO and Founder) operating under PT. Galang Kangin Digital was also officially established in July 2019. Rahmadi who has a creative, management, and hospitality background came up with the idea of BestHostels Indonesia, which was later supported by the co-Founder, Bayu, who has an IT background and played an essential role in its product development. The vision of the company is to become the platform of choice for booking the first hostel in Indonesia, which also provides various travel products and services targeting young travelers who want to have unlimited adventures at an affordable price range. BestHostels Indonesia also has a mission to contribute to driving the national economy by prioritizing cooperation with local business owners such as local hostels and shared-type accommodations, transportation companies, activists, and local tourist activities or attractions providers. In the future, BestHostels Indonesia's mission is to expand its network to more cities in Indonesia as well as increase the variety of products and services according to market needs, especially to fulfill backpackers and local tourists’ demands. One of them is by expanding into homestay and guest house accommodation.
