Summary of traveller reviews

Sylvis Hostel Chiangmai in Chiang Mai offers a great location and friendly staff, with clean rooms and bathrooms. It's a social spot with a bar, though some guests find the beds quite hard and the music loud until midnight.

Clean bedrooms although a friend found the beds quite uncomfortable. Various events during our stay made us feel quite unsafe, particularly as the staff did next to nothing to address the safety concerns. Well located and some really nice people staying there which improved the experience.

Came here hoping it’d be social but it was absolutely dead, everyone goes to stamps across the road. Despite there not being a single person at the bar (except 3 staff playing darts), the music was blaring till 12am, I know they warn you of this but it was the empty bar that made it weird. Pictures are nicer than the hostel, it’s a glorified shed, bed was rock hard and to combat the smell of weed, they sprayed an aerosol in the morning in the room that nearly choked us. Don’t recommend

was a lovely hostel but vibes were very off. the common area was always empty or full of 30yr olds. not a place to go if you’re looking to make friends
