Nice hostel in Chiang Rai”
The hostel is clean, modern. Beds are comfy but duvet was quiet small. It’s a short walk to the bus stop and town centre. But it’s on a very busy road so very loud and dusty as the windows in the common area are open all day. They have laundry there and some free toast for breakfast. It was very quiet as not many people in the hostel

Really enjoy my stay here even just one day! The reception lady was so nice to help us to catch on our bus to Chiang Mai. The breakfast is fresh and yummy, room is clean and the location is quite and walkable to the night market. The reception also help us to book our Green bus tickets to Chiang Mai and help us to rent the motorbike. Highly recommend this hostel if you come to Chiang Rai!

Superb ”
Convenient to go to everywhere. The hostel is along the main road, opposite to lanna post office & Chiang Rai bachanukrao hospital. The atmosphere in the building and room is good, high ventilation.

Chic and cool”
The hostel is as seen on the web. Staff is friendly and very helpful. Breakfast set is amazingly beautiful and delicious. I forgot my sunglasse when checked out, the staff called soon after I left the hotel, so we can go get it back in time. Thanks a lot for the honesty of the staff.

Cute, Clean and Convenient ”
I love that they have communal kitchens for sharing on each level. It's something to keep in mind for budget travellers who may want to make simple meals. The location is also very convenient. The rooms are really nice, the bed is great and they look just like in the photos. Highly recommend.

Nice place well equipped but lacking in human connection ”
Usually hostels we visit are more friendly and welcoming and at happy nest the staff seemed sour and distant. The place itself is very much ok.

Nice cafe attached to hostel”
Unfortunately almost empty when I was staying (Thai pass / Covid times) and they put me in a room with a hostel employee and local medical student. The Common areas were nice to chill out in, there is an excellent cafe on the ground floor. WiFi, locker+key, washing machine, fridge with water, bread & butter to make toast, coffee and hot chocolate, cookies free. Short walk to bars, eateries and night market.

No lift”
The cafe vibe is nice but not recommend family with small children and old folk as there us no lift. The shower pressure and bathroom is small but this is a hostel so is still acceptable. Near bus station 1.

Price quality is not what i expected”
If your enter the hostel its so nice and cozy. But when you walk upstairs its very basic. The shower is not clean to be honest and the beds make a lot of noice when the top as well as the bottom bunk is taken. The staff is not the ‘Thai friendly’ as you expected like every other hostel. Would not come back here.

Totally disappointed ”
The lobby look very good but the room are totally different, i dont mind old interior but dirty and un-hygiene are different. I cannot stand the bathroom, there’s fungus and some part are full of rust. The staff on the day i arrived seem like pissing off on something all the time, also you cannot back to hostel later than midnight. Breakfast are ok.

A cute little boutique hostel in the heart of CR”
When I arrived at Happynest I couldn't believe how cute and chic it was, definitely the best hostel that I have stayed during my one month in Thailand. I booked a dorm room at a very reasonable price (with breakfast included) but ended up having the whole room and the toilet to myself. The staff members including the owner were very helpful and friendly; they were doing an ice bucket challenge on one evening and were nice enough to let me join in. There were many social areas for guests to chill out and mingle. I tried the western as well the Thai style breakfast, they were both delicious. I will definitely recommend this hostel to friends who are interested in visiting Chiang Rai!

Great stay in Chiang Rai ”
Happynest hostel is a very modern and clean and well kept hostel. I stayed in a 4 bed dorm, which I practically had to myself except for first night. I think because Chiang Rai is not the most touristic town in Thailand. The beds are clean but personally I found the mattress a little too soft for me and found it hard initially to settle. My room was facing the main road so getting to sleep was a little hard with drivers revving engines as they drove by late at night or driving past with loud music after 12am! The room had nice air conditioning which made a good difference as it was very hot. Each floor had shared toilets/bathroom and were split into separate male and female bathrooms with one shower each for men and women on all floors. Good thing the place didn't fill up, must have been low season so never had to contend for the shower. Location is nice and central, the hostel is a good 20 minute walk from main bus station, night bazaar and restaurants and shops. The White Temple (main draw to Chiang Rai) is a good 20 to 25 minute drive away on the highway. Breakfast is included and you get to choose what type when you check in, between Western breakfast or a Thai breakfast. I chose Western, which is scrambled egg, mixed veg and toasted ham sandwich with juice and pot of yogurt. Coffee and tea on offer too. Breakfast was pretty basic, but not bad and was sufficient for me while nothing special. Service was good and staff helpful! All in all, a very good few days stay in a very CLEAN and quiet hostel, would absolutely recommend.
