About

Welcome to Revolution Pai - Riverside, aka the most social hostel in town! You’ll arrive as a guest but will leave as part of the family.

Located on the river, just around the corner from walking street and bar street, our location is the best in Pai! Plus, our BRAND NEW, MASSIVE POOL is officially open!

We're thrilled to show you the best of Pai!
The team at Revs takes hospitality seriously. With 10 years of experience operating hostels, and of course being backpackers ourselves, we will help you make the best memories of your trip. So....please please PLEASE read before booking :D

WARNING: Revolution Hostels are a 'go hard, adventure hard' kinda place. We love to show you the best of the surroundings, culture and food, and at night of course the best places to let loose! And with daily happy hour plus strong buckets starting at 250 THB, no wonder it's a loved kick-off point for many a thirsty traveler!

We host nightly social events at our poppin' bar such as pub quiz, beer pong tournament and boozy bingo. We operate pub crawls, pool parties, tubing trips, foam parties, canyon tours, and more! We are the official pre-party for the largest tubing event in Pai, Jungle Tubing, plus the official pre-party for Secret Sunrise urban rave - think DJs, All You Can Drink, dancing on tables and other shenanigans! So, be prepared to forget some of the best nights of your life! :)

Not sure what to do here? Join us for tubing in Pai! We only sell the best, Jungle Tubing, during the months of November to July. With a high-season average of 500 tubers enjoying 4 riverside bars, 2 foam parties, DJs, games and even a 2-stage festival, it’s no wonder Jungle Tubing is the most popular tubing event in town!

Want to get to know Pai? Let us show you why people get stuck in the Pai-hole! We organize day trips to all of Pai’s most exciting spots, like the stunning White Buddha, Chinese Village, Yun Lai Viewpoint, Hot Springs and more. We also offer chill sunset trips to the most scenic spots in Pai including the iconic Two Huts, Pai Canyon and Panorama Bar!

After any of our day activities you can enjoy the free family dinner we prepare every. single. night.

Come enjoy our riverside bar. Stoke up the fire pit to warm yourself (with a cold beer in hand of course) on those cooler Pai nights. Take a dip in the river to cool off, or just lay in the hammocks in the yard and enjoy those blue skies.

We have 1 hostel doggy, Happy (the handsome tan one) and several of the neighbor dogs hang out at Revs. Don't be surprised to find some puppy eyes and a wagging tail at your table any time of the day. They even love to come tubing! If you do not like dogs however, please note this before you book!

And lastly, as we are just around the corner from the bar street, on most nights you'll end your evening just a few minutes away from your comfortable bed :)
