The hostel was spotless, bathrooms are outside and convenient at every floor, free coffee and good quality Thai loose leaf tea 💯 Special thanks to Apple for always smiling and making sure we had everything we needed. Hope to come back there soon, take care team <3

What a great find! I came across the newly opened Secret Corner boutique hostel in Chiang Rai, - everything is brand new and super clean, + the WiFi is amazing! The dorm rooms are smartly laid out and the beds are v comfortable. The central location makes for easy access to nearby centre bars & restaurants. The other guests were from Asia and the far side of Europe making for some great discussions! Highly recommended.

If you want to meet new friends quickly and feel like you’re part of a little family, this is the place to be. By far the best hostel I’ve stayed at in Thailand. When you arrive and check in, within 30 minutes, you’ll likely have met 4-5 new people. It’s an amazing vibe that makes you feel great right away. Plus, they offer a free egg in the morning with toast and coffee, which is a perfect start to your day. The beds are comfortable, the showers have great pressure with hot water, towels are included, and the AC works perfectly. They host games or events every night, and you’re always welcome to join in. You can also play ping pong, volleyball, or badminton. The two owners are incredibly friendly and helpful, assisting you with getting anywhere you need to go. They’ve even made a map that you can scan with a QR code, allowing you to see all the best activities in Chiang Rai on Google Maps, perfect for planning your day. It’s such a welcoming place. I hope I can stay there again!

The location of the hostel was perfect, only a five minute walk to the night market and bus station. The host was very friendly and helpful, and organized with further transport and even woke up at 05 to make me breakfast and to make sure I got on transfer! The dorms are equipped with curtains and are very comfortable. Clean bathrooms and showers with hot water. I had an overall very good stay at Together Backpackers in Chiang Rai!

Great location. Walk to shops and restaurants and night bazaar areas easily. I found restaurants around night bizarre much nicer and more hygienic than actual night market stalls. Helpful owner. Bikes and motorbikes and tours all can be booked cheaply through reception... High school next door so before and after school mini market set up on the street every school day with great food and snacks. Walking distance to bus station to Chiang Mai....

It was a very clean space with a great location. The rooms were nice and the private bathroom was very convenient. There was also a public bathroom for use if needed, too. The amenities were awesome as well. For the first time staying in a hostel, Connect Hostel exceeded my expectations.
