Paul & Kooki are both very nice and supportive. I really enjoyed the stay and liked the vibe in the hostel. The common areas are too comfortable to move. Haha. It's exactly the vibe of Chiangmai. :) The bed was also set up in good design with curtain, charger, and night light in every bed. The bed struture is also very stable that you rarely felt the movement of upper bed.

The rooms and facilities were sleek and clean. The beds were fairly comfortable, and the common space was lovely. The location is also lovely being right within the old town but on a quiet, peaceful street.

The decoration and the equipment are super nice and accommodating, with the curtains in the beds you have some intimacy. There are enough plugs to charge your devices. I stayed there for a layover to take the bus. Yet, it was super comfortable.

This place is a gem in the heart of Chiang Mai old town! We have been to resorts all over Thailand but Pran at Kumuang has by far the most beautiful interior, particularly in the rooms. The historical building where its located has been fully and amazingly renovated, which brought it back to its splendor. Staff is very gentle, keen to help at any time. The owner is so sweet and inspires anyone who listens to her history.

I had the pleasure of staying at 2TB Hostel, and I must say, the owner is an incredibly kind and helpful woman. Her warm hospitality made my stay one of the best experiences I've had so far. – comfortable, welcoming, and truly memorable. Highly recommended!

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.
