I liked everything:)booked for 2 days and ended staying quite longer :) The bed is comfortable and room is nice. The location is great being out of the city but still really close especially if you rent a small bike and the ambience is quiet. The staff Dewi and Tiny did an impeccable job! They do their best to help around. I’ll be back for sure.

The location is fantastic, 10 mins away from the main walking street. The views and the chilling area/pool is superb and the facilities are clean and comfortable. But what makes the hostel unique is the owner, K was extremely helpful and caring! She helped me organizing my trip to Laos and gave me the best tips! Perfect place if you’re not looking for a party hostel but still have good vibes

I absolutely loved the vibes of this hostel. The capsule-style beds offer total privacy, which is such a bonus when staying in a dorm. There’s also plenty of space to relax and unwind. Everything was spotless, and the staff were genuinely amazing—friendly, helpful, and always around when you need something. A special shout-out to Jax, who was especially kind and made me feel really welcome. I’d definitely stay here again!

The greatest advantage of this hotel is by far the ambiance, with barbecues, pool parties, bar crawls, quiz nights and many other fun activities organized by the wonderful team. This is arguably the perfect hostel for the solo traveler or a group of friends looking to meet new people. Other than that, rooms are pretty clean and comfortable, and most importantly air conditioned. Each has a private bathroom, aside from a public one. There are lockers in the room itself, which is very comfortable.

All hostels in Pai

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    The hostel is absolutely amazing! Great location, not even 10min walk from town, the pool and the view are incredible, the pets are super cute and friendly. The staff is amazingly friendly and super helpful with everything. Dorms are comfy, spacious, cleaned and well maintained. This is a 11/10 hostel for sure! They have food and drinks with a decent price. Loved it so much I had to extend for one more night.

    The lady who runs the hostel is amazing! She can help you with literally anything - she can book your transport for the cheapest rate going, she got me a safety pin when i had a splinter and just in general i really felt like she was looking out for me which was so lovely especially as a solo female traveller. The beds too are super comfy with njce curtains and bathrooms njce too plus the garden is gorgeous - super nice place to chill you wouldn’t believe it’s right next to walking street - location could not be more perfect

    The best hostel we have stayed at in Thailand by far! Rooms are very clean and new, shower is amazing! Very sociable hostel! Bar open every night with good night life (special shout out to the bar man who was so lovely). The bar has all sorts of games out for you to get involved with… beer pong, connect 4, Uno, cards etc… met so many great people at this hostel! Great location and staff are very welcoming. Pool is clean and refreshing when it’s sunny. Cannot fault this hostel at all! Perfect for young backpackers who love to socialise!

    I think this is the best hostel in Pai! Good atmosphere and many opportunities to meet new people. The managers are very involved with the guests. Yoga classes are offered every day and trips are organized. The rooms are hygienic and comfortable enough. Good value for money. I would definitely go back here and regret not being able to stay longer.
