Chiang Mai Hostels

Hostels are one of the most convenient and inexpensive options for accommodation when staying in Chiang Mai.

The best part about Hostels is that you can easily book online in advance of your trip, or simply arrive in Chiang Mai and go door to door. There are so many Chiang Mai Hostels available!

Part of the reason why this form of accommodation is popular in Thailand can be attributed to the rapid growth of the tourism sector. With so many backpackers and young people coming to Chiang Mai, the number of hostels and guest houses have grown exponentially in the last 10 years.

Hostels have several advantages over other readily available forms of accommodation. Not only are they more affordable, they also offer a casual lodging option where you can meet other travellers.

Many Chiang Mai Hostels are located in the old city, as this is considered the centre of the tourist area of Chiang Mai. But there are also a number of reputable hostels located in the Nimman area (north west of the old city) as well as near the Night Bazaar and Ping River (east of the old city).

Many hostels offer dorm-like accommodation with bunk beds which sleep 4, 6 or 8 people. These rooms often have shared bathroom facilities, lounge and kitchen areas. Other hostels offer private rooms with ensuite bathrooms and shared lounge facilities.

You would be hard pressed to find a hostel that DIDN’T have free Wifi, so you can rest assured that the internet is readily accessible. Some hostels also have pool tables, swimming pools and small bars.
