William
During our recent stay at a certain hostel in Chiang Mai, we were pleasantly surprised by the overall experience. The facilities were new, clean, and attractively decorated, creating a pleasant and comfortable atmosphere. We particularly appreciated the abundance of plugs in the rooms, making it easy to charge our devices. Additionally, the owner of the hostel was extremely helpful and genuinely friendly, always available to assist with any questions or concerns we had. The beds were surprisingly comfortable, with mattresses that suited our preference for a firmer feel. The curtains on the beds provided a sense of privacy, and the two lockers per bed were a great advantage, even though one of them occasionally didn't work. The common area with its spacious kitchen table also fostered a social environment, making it effortless to meet new people during breakfast. Speaking of breakfast, it was included in the price and offered a variety of options such as pastries, dim sum, fruit, and beverages. The cleanliness and tidiness of both the bedrooms and common areas were impressive, and the presence of a locked fridge with snacks and drinks for purchase added convenience. our stay was enjoyable, and we would recommend this hostel to others looking for a good social atmosphere and modern accommodations.

Super helpful owners who helped me book a suitable tour for my broken toe. Well-designed communal spaces that encourage interaction. Friendly and welcoming atmosphere. Good breakfast options.
Some issues with cleanliness, particularly in the female dorm. Sink in the room had very limited water flow.

I stayed at Pakping for 6 nights during my honeymoon trip through Thailand. The private Honeymoon suite was well-equipped and had a comfy queen-size bed. The hostel owner, Sam, was super nice and even gave us a honeymoon present. The hostel itself is modern and has a cozy living room area and a common breakfast table. We felt right at home and had a very positive and quiet experience. The location is also very good, with everything easily accessible on foot. I highly recommend the cooking lesson, which can be booked at the hostel. Thank you for making our stay unforgettable, Sam!
Would recommend this hotel.

The private Honeymoon suite was absolutely amazing! We had our own bathroom and a comfy queen-size bed. the owner even gave us a special Honeymoon present, which was so thoughtful. the location was perfect, situated in the south west of the Old Town. We loved being able to explore the charming streets and attractions nearby. the living room area was so cozy and the common table for breakfast was a nice touch.
That there weren't many opportunities to meet other travelers. It would have been nice to have some common activities organized by the hotel.

We had a fantastic stay at a charming hostel in Chiang Mai. The breakfast options were amazing and the owner made us feel incredibly welcome. We were even able to leave early in the morning and just left the key on the counter. The rooms were new and had their own shared bathrooms, and we were pleased to find two lockers for our belongings. Although the common area was quiet due to the hostel being relatively new, we still met some great people during our stay. The couple running the place took great care of it and were extremely helpful in providing recommendations for activities in the area. we had a wonderful experience and would definitely recommend this hostel to others.

We had a fantastic experience at this hostel. The staff were incredibly friendly and provided us with great tips on things to do in the area. The hostel itself was of high quality, with clean rooms and a quiet atmosphere. We felt right at home here, thanks to the accommodating owner and the comfortable beds. The location was also perfect, situated on a quiet street but still close to everything. Plus, they even had motorbikes and bicycles available for rent. if you're looking for a social and welcoming hostel, look no further than Pakping.
Nothing to fault! 😊

We had an unforgettable experience staying at this hostel. the location was ideal, with several temples and markets nearby. the friendly and helpful staff made our stay even more enjoyable. the room was clean and comfortable, with curtains for added privacy. the free breakfast and snacks were a great perk. the interior of the hostel was modern and attractively decorated, making us feel right at home.
Meeting other travelers was a bit difficult due to the small size of the shared lounge area.

Mind-blowing location with easy access to cafes, markets, and public facilities in the city center. The peaceful and clean ambiance provides the best hospitality. The spacious common area is perfect for relaxing and socializing. Snacks and complimentary amenities like peanut butter and bananas are a super bonus. The cozy reading space is jaw-dropping. Free breakfast, cold water, and curtains on beds enhance the comfort. This brand new hostel is a paradise for young adults seeking a comfortable and vibrant stay.
