Great location—just a 5-minute walk to the night street, but tucked away in a quiet spot perfect for relaxing. 10 minutes walking to minivan station. The atmosphere is super chill, especially in the lounge area where it's easy to unwind or meet other travelers. The bathroom was impressively clean throughout my stay. Would definitely recommend for anyone looking for a good balance of nightlife access and laid-back vibes.

Such a nice view of the mountains and rice terraces. Good location, a bit outside of town (which I like) but still walkable and they can drive you/pick you up in town for free! Good place to chill and meet other people.

I highly recommend staying at the Tabletop Tavern if you're in Pai. Gummy and Fern felt more like friends that hosts, they were very caring and helpful. They always made sure I got everything I needed. They're very sweet and I suggest you stay at their place if you're looking for a more chill and restful location in Pai:)

Everything! There is no other place I would stay in Pai. It's quiet, around nature, there is a pool and hammocks. Mom and Papa, the hosts, gave me a feeling like I am their own son.

All hostels in Pai

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's 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 little 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!

    I think this is the best hostel in Pai! Good atmosphere and many opportunities to meet new people. The managers are very involved with the guests. Yoga classes are offered every day and trips are organized. The rooms are hygienic and comfortable enough. Good value for money. I would definitely go back here and regret not being able to stay longer.
