Guest reviews for Mapping Hostel
"Everyone is friendly to each other and respectful in their own way. I liked my fellow roommates. The hosts were kind too and helpful."
"There were times the smell from the bathrooms were unbearable, but be patient as there is little staff and they cannot clean every minute after every guest. They do clean the facilities morning and evenings so just find the right time and you will be fine."
"Really good vibe, clean facilities and kind staff! Also friendly dogs & cat :) beautiful spot by the river"
"The beds in the dorms were hard but personally i dont mind that"
"Awesome people and vibe. Perfect hangout area on the river. Amazing staff!"
"Aucun."
"The location by the river is idyllic, the accommodation was pleasant and great value"
"It’s a large place, with many guests, which ends up causing some noise"
"Great vibes on the local river, safe, clean, lot of trees veggie surrounding the place."
"No"
"Location is good because everything you need is nearby. The staff was really friendly and the rooms were clean. The setting is pretty relaxing too as you can sit by the river bank to watch the sunset. They can keep your luggage for you a while if you need that and finding grab rides to and from the hostel was pretty quick and cheap."
"Aucun."
"It’s cheapest you can find. Good price. Nice river and chill backyard area."
"Lots of 60 year olds staying long term. They have no idea about respecting other people. Watching loud ig reels all the time. Talking in the rooms. Nov 2024 they have construction next door."
"Very nice staff. Chill vibe. Cute pets everywhere. Coffee :) Away from the tourist area, so it’s more calm. But you need to have a scooter or take grab. I prefer this area because it’s peaceful and on the river. If you like being out of the city, camping, and more thoughtful meditative people/not partying, you’ll like this place :)"
"The only bad thing is the WiFi is terrible. I couldn’t get it to work unless I was in the lobby. But it’s okay for me because I like the more natural/peaceful atmosphere. It’s outdoor/indoor, so it’s hotter with lounging areas outside. Not everyone will like this. But I like it!"
"The price/value for the private AC room is unmatched. We slept very comfortably. Cute hostel animals and friendly staff. I would stay here again if we come back to Chiang Mai"
"Bathroom cleanliness was not great at times, for me it wasn’t that bad, again considering the price, but if you are a picky backpacker take this into consideration. Location was a bit far from old town but we walked quite often or took a grab, easy walk to night bazaar"
"Great people, excellent location, very good vibes and energy, close to 7/11"
"Nothing"

Guest reviews
"Hotel is right off the main road so close to a lot of restaurants and shops, solid 15 minute walk to the beach, and 5 minute walk to the bus stop. The room was clean and amenities were provided. The owner was kind and was limited in English but did her best."

"Wonderful hotel. Great staff - loved Carmen!!! super close to the beach but tucked away in a quiet corner of it all. great room, great bed, great everything. Highly recommend. Only regret was that we did not stay there longer. A gem of a place."
Marnie PapaCrab Boutique Guesthouse
"Per and Sirilak's apartment at Kamala Regent is lovely. Our hosts were very easy to communicate with and provided helpful information on request. Very clean, spacious and comfortable apartment and friendly people to deal with. Walking distance to just about everything under 1km. Some local coffee and restaurants within a 5 minute walk. On-site facilities such as pool, restaurant and gym very nice and clean. Security were happy to call a taxi for us when we weren't up for walking. We highly recommend and would absolutely stay again. Thank you for making our stay in Kamala memorable 💖"
