The staff at this hotel were really helpful and friendly, always there to assist with any queries or requests. the location was great, very convenient for exploring the city and the nearby attractions. the free breakfast provided was a nice touch, even though it was a simple spread. the towels provided were also a bonus.
The rooms were a bit cramped, especially the bathrooms. the noise from the traffic outside could be quite disturbing, even with earplugs.

The hostel offers lockers for guests to store their bags, providing convenience and security. The dorm rooms have comfortable mattresses and curtains that ensure privacy for a good night's sleep. The entire hostel is well-maintained and clean, creating a pleasant and hygienic environment. The staff members are friendly and helpful, making the stay even more enjoyable. The capsules in the dorm rooms offer both privacy and noise reduction, allowing guests to relax undisturbed. The beds are larger than average and come with great pillows, soft sheets, and blankets for added comfort. The hostel has a little hangout area where guests can socialize and purchase beverages. Laundry facilities are available for guests' use, including machine drying and a space for hang drying clothes outside on the balcony. The location is excellent, surrounded by cafes and with a nice walkway nearby. Guests can sit outside and watch the bustling street, and there is also the convenience of purchasing water and beer on the premises until late in the evening. Free breakfast is provided, including bread, jams, and bananas, and towels are also given to guests.
Felt like a home away from home, with nothing being too much trouble.

The location was perfect, with plenty of shops and eateries within walking distance. The dorm room was clean and comfortable, with curtains for added privacy and ample storage space under the beds. I also appreciated the complimentary tea/coffee and breakfast options in the morning, as well as the on-site laundry facilities. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to others!
Couldn't recommend this hotel more.

The hostel provided thick curtains for each bed, allowing for privacy in the dorm room. I also appreciated the good storage space under the beds. The location was great, with a short walk to the downtown area and many temples nearby.
The bathrooms were a bit tiny and the water pressure could have been better. there were only a few showers and toilets, which could be an issue when the place gets fully booked.

We had an excellent stay at this hostel. The cleanliness was outstanding, especially for a hostel in this city. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful, always greeting us with smiles. The location was perfect, just a few minutes away from the markets and on the opposite side of the river from Old Town. The hotel facilities were top-notch, with comfortable beds that had curtains for privacy and noise blockage. The bathroom facilities were clean and well-maintained. We also appreciated the free laundry machine and the option for machine drying or hanging our clothes on the balcony. this hostel provided us with a wonderful and comfortable experience.
Absolutely nothing to say about dislikes.

I recently stayed at Hug Backpackers for a few nights and had a fantastic experience. The hostel is incredibly clean, especially for a hostel in this area. The location is ideal, within walking distance to the charming old city. The staff is friendly and it's evident that they prioritize cleanliness. The hostel also has a lovely outdoor seating area, perfect for relaxing and people-watching. Plus, there's a convenience store on the property for buying water and beer. it's a great option for a comfortable and clean stay in Chiang Mai.
Would recommend this hotel.

The value for money at this hostel was great, considering the cleanliness and comfort of the rooms. The location was perfect, just across the moat from Old Town with plenty of dining options nearby. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful throughout my stay.
Hotel breakfast could have been improved by offering a wider variety of options.

I stayed at Hug Backpackers for two trips and loved it! The clean, modern dorms had hot showers and comfy beds with privacy curtains. The lovely hosts recognized me and even gave me the same bed for both stays. There were great lockers for storage and a towel rack on the beds. The breakfast of toast with butter and jam was a nice touch. a great value for the location, cleanliness, and comfortable beds.
Can recommend this hotel.
