"I am genuinely disappointed with my experience at this hostel. I booked and paid for a family room three days in advance, but when my family and I arrived, we were informed that there was no room available. We waited for 3 hours, and the staff did not provide any assistance; they simply stated that there was no room and walked away from the reception. This was incredibly frustrating, and we ultimately had to find another hotel over 40 minutes away, which completely disrupted our travel plans....

10/10 Excellent

This is one of the best hostels I have stayed in. The staff are friendly and welcoming and organise walking tours of Chiang Mai on occasion to bring people together. The dining area and other outdoor areas are great for hanging out in and meeting the other travellers. The rooms are clean and the beds and pillows are comfy. The breakfast is simple but excellent and the kitchen appliances and utensils are available for cooking and storage of food. The hostel also has a great location.

Premier Hostel Chiang Mai

Chang Phueak

10/10 Excellent

I stayed in the Suite at Premier Hostel Chiang Mai and it was genuinely amazing. The room was huge and the bed was massive and super comfortable — easily one of the best rooms I’ve had while travelling. The location is great too, right in the Old Town and perfect for walking around to temples, cafés and night markets. The only small downside was that the water supply from the shower and sink was very slow — it felt like the pump may have failed. Aside from that, everything was spot on. Would...

Insight Hostel

Chiang Mai

10/10 Excellent

Insight Hostel was very calm and relaxing. While its small and has less activities compared to others in Chiangmai, it was perfect for me to sit back with nature and relax. The environment was amazing with big trees and all traditional houses was great. Ultimately I ended up with fond memories of a place with staff that made me feel like family. THIS IS NOT A HIGH ENERGY/ACTIVE but WONDERFUL SLOW LIFE accommodation.

10/10 Excellent

The staff were so friendly and helpful- giving lots of advice of good places to visit. Free water saved us lots of money & location was great. Breakfast had a small selection but bread and fruit was very good! Only thing that let it down a little bit was our room wasn’t cleaned in the 6 days we were there, meaning towels etc were quite grotty by the end! It also meant that we had to ask for toilet paper when we ran out which felt a bit weird. Staff are a credit to the hostel & made our stay...

8/10 Good

If you want somewhere basic and well located in Chiangmai old town, this is the place for you. Staff were so friendly and helpful and the hotel is in a lovely area walking distance from lovely shops and places to eat and book other excursions. My only complaint would be that the room was quite basic, there was a lot of noise from other AC generators (despite the one in our room being turned off whilst we tried to sleep) and the shower was not hot. But for the price you can’t complain! I would...

This is probably the best hostel I’ve ever stayed at globally. It is exceptional in every way. The design is fantastic, I really like the beds with curtains to provide a private space and the poured concrete sinks. The showers are grand. The balconies are fantastic. The cleanliness is next to no other. They make your bed every day and provide a fresh towel and bottle of water daily. The pool is absolutely wonderful, better than the hotel I stayed at in the area that was treble the price, with...
