Best place to stay in Pai! The pool was so wonderful to swim in during the hot weather. The patio area is very relaxing with beautiful views of the mountains. Comfy seating areas and very comfortable beds. Clean rooms and toilet areas. The best thing was the air conditioning!! I actually moved from another hostel to this hostel because it had air conditioning - a must in the heat. The staff are very friendly and the location is good with just a short 10 minute walk into the centre. I didn't get any of the food but they offer smoothies, curries, rice dishes etc. as well as drinks. Lovely relaxed and chill atmosphere whilst also being sociable if you want to chat. I met some lovely people here but also enjoyed just sitting and reading by the pool to have some time alone. Can't recommend enough!!

Had such a lovely stay, the host was fab - we arrived late in the evening and the property had only opened a few days prior. The host invited us to eat with her friends! Super welcoming! The room was clean and great bathroom/ wardrobe space! Hairdryer too which is always a bonus! Couldn’t recommend this stay enough for a couple!

The space is brand new refurbished and done so in a very modern beautiful way. The dorm size was exceptional, there was storage in the rooms and the bathroom. Privacy was good, communal areas were also great, each level had a balcony and places to hang outside the dorm. The location was also really great, just out of the main centre of Pai, next to a big green park that has a community Saturday market. With so much to do in Pai this was one of the best guesthouses I have stayed in that provided a relaxation space.

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!

My stay at 17 stories in Pai was an absolute gem of an experience. Nestled amidst the lush greenery and tranquility of Pai, this guest house was a serene escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The ambiance of the guest house was simply enchanting. Surrounded by picturesque landscapes, the charming individual double rooms are beautifully designed, offering both comfort and a genuine connection with nature. Waking up to the sounds of birds chirping and the gentle rustling of leaves was a delightful way to start each day. The hospitality extended by hosts Max and Kat was exceptional. They exuded warmth and were incredibly attentive, always ready with helpful tips and genuine smiles. Their dedication to ensuring a comfortable stay made me and my friends feel like a welcomed guests in their home, adding a personal touch that made the experience even more special. The cleanliness and upkeep of the guest house were commendable. The rooms were immaculate and thoughtfully appointed, providing a cozy and inviting atmosphere. Whether relaxing in a hammock or enjoying a local beer by the pool, every moment spent here felt like a serene retreat. One of the highlights was the communal spaces that fostered a sense of community among guests. The communal areas were inviting and beautifully arranged, encouraging interactions among travellers. It was a great opportunity to share stories, experiences, and recommendations while embracing the laid-back Pai vibe. The guest house's location was also perfect. It struck a balance between being close to Pai's attractions yet tucked away enough to offer peace and quiet. It was convenient to explore the town center or venture out to the surrounding natural wonders. thank you Max and Kat for such an unforgettable experience!!

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!

Free yoga classes every morning and the hostel arrange a lot of free/cheap activities. There’s a really nice vibe and it’s social but without being a party hostel. The best hostel in Pai!
