    推薦!!老闆娘人很好,會給很多行程的建議。早上也有簡單的餐點,房間有小陽台可以晾衣服。 但美中不足的是女生背包客房睡覺時拉簾後感覺有些悶 。此外,用餐和交誼廳沒有冷氣。

    Comfortable and clean hostel. Dorm beds had AC, curtains, electric sockets for each bed. The host is super nice and went out of her way to help me with bus tickets. Location inside the walled city. No complaints

    The place was nice and cosy. It's on the quiet side of the area but also walking distance to the Sun night market, Sat night market and other places. Lots of good reviews of the massage shop nearby there. Can walk the old city square around 10-15min walk to one spot. Grab bike or car also will be cheap to any place from here like the One Nimman area. The owner is a couple and they are friendly and can speak English. I took the private room which is on the top floor so be prepared to carry your luggage up the stairs of 3 storeys. The room was nice and spacious. The toilet was good as well. I like the bed and pillow, both are soft. The bed maybe too soft as I felt like I'm sinking but still nice to sleep on. Fridge you need to share in the kitchen area. So far no need to worry of no space or people stealing it. It wasn't that crowded on the days I was there. So plenty of space to sit in the kitchen and also the lounging area. Got hot and cold water dispenser to refill your water daily. You can use the kitchen utensils for your meals. There's a microwave too. You are only allowed to eat at the kitchen area to prevent ants or cockroaches in the room. Simple breakfast is also available in the morning but I skip it as I wanted to eat Thai food outside. So can't comment on that. My only issue was with the shower head. I didn't like how the spray of the water came out. It's a bit hard to shower especially when washing my hair. The building is also not sound proof as it is an old building so you will hear other people from the dorms going in & out of their room or using the shared toilet. But it was not bad during my time since not many people.

    It's a simple, clean hostel, but Koki (the host) makes all the difference. If you ask her for help she goes way beyond what is necessary and she just makes you feel at home. She anticipates needs and will research anything you would want to know. Don't expect parties or social activities, but a quiet place to call your home away from home.

    It was my second time at Pakping. I stayed here for 16 nights, and I would definitely choose them again. My first stay was in the female room (2023), but this year I chose to stay in the 10-bed mixed room (cheaper). Bed: Super comfortable, with curtains, a private locker, and drawers. You also get a private locker. (Big enough to hang some clothes and save your bag) AC: Works all the time Bathroom: You get a shared bathroom for females and another one for males. Breakfast: Toast, Cereal, Coffee / Tea, Honey, Milk (Soy Milk too!) Juice, Toasts. Kitchen: Fridge available + Kitchen elements to have all your meals (It's not possible to cook) Location: The best!! Close to everything and at the same time far from the chaos. Atmosphere: Hard to explain, but for some reason, I feel this is a safe place for women. I would describe it as a nice, small hostel for Digital Female Nomads. Wifi works great, desks are available for working, and it is almost always quiet. I was working at that moment, but needed some time to study and I could find the peace and silince I needed. The shared bathroom has only 1 toilet and 2 showers. The toilet is inside one of the showers, so when someone is taking a bath, you need to go downstairs and use the common toilet (Kitchen floor). It is not comfortable when the mix room is occupied mainly by women.

    Koki is the absolute sweetest! Wishing her much blessings to come. The cleaning staff is also very sweet an efficient. Only thing is the toilet is such a tight space you basically have to sit sideways if you are a little taller than most. Also the shower head placement. You either have to turn it to the wall or get pretty aggressively sprayed if its facing you.

    Very helpful staff, exceptionally clean. Clean towels and clean bathroom, you can tell they make this a priority. The owner was always giving helpful tips, I saw her talk with everyone. There is a good community sense there to be nice and respectful. All in all had a great experience. Breakfast = coffee, tea, cereals, and some spreads.

  • Engine customer Feb 2026

    The place is uper clean and modern, this is more like a hotel, i got helped with everything I've needed, definitely one of the best places ive stayed in the north of thailand, thank you so much ❤️

  • Engine customer Feb 2026

    Koki and Paul are so very helpful even late nights when we chat or text they would reply.They are so helpful as well. With the property NONE. Some guest are so inconsiderate like they bang the doors super early morning so noisy with their things without thinking with the other guest but with the property everything is good.

  • Engine customer Jan 2026

    Koki and her husband are very welcoming. This hostel was great : confortable, clean, quiet ! They are very helpful if you need to book activities. Great location, close to temples, Night market and streets of interest ! I definitely recommend !

  • Engine customer Jan 2026

    Loved my stay here — Koki and her beautiful family are warm, friendly, knowledgable hosts (with inspiring backstories!) and you can pretty much organize everything you want to do in Chiang Mai through their guidance and/or booking. The minimalist space was clean, cozy, centrally located along a peaceful side street in the old city. Amenities wise, I particularly appreciated that towels and locked storage were provide and the capsule dorm setup vs. traditional bunk beds. Would definitely stay here again when in Chiang Mai.

  • Engine customer Jan 2026

    The sheets are so comfy and host is knowledgeable about recommendations. No elevator but that’s okay.

  • Engine customer Jan 2026

    Clean and quiet. Nothing.

  • Engine customer Jan 2026

    The reception staff were always very helpful and you can book at the hostel easily a lots of activities.

  • Engine customer Nov 2025

    The rooms are clean and quite. People are very respectful there. The only drawback that I can think was the lack of many hangers and space in the room but it was not a huge problem.

  • Engine customer Nov 2025

    Great stuff, very clean, location is good for the old city

  • Engine customer Nov 2025

    Nothing.
