About

Your Chiang Mai adventure starts at Mad Monkey. Spend your days exploring, then come back for family dinners, events, and nights you'll be talking about long after checkout.

At Mad Monkey Chiang Mai, making plans is easy because there's always someone heading out for the next adventure. Kick things off at The Meet Up, a daily 7pm get-together at the bar with 50% off beers. Come alone, leave together. Cool off by our saltwater pool, or jump into one of our nightly events, from Music Bingo on Tuesdays and Karaoke on Thursdays to Pub Crawls every Tuesday, Friday and Sunday. Chiang Mai is all about connection over chaos, and our air-conditioned bar, pool area, and social spaces give you the perfect place to meet new people.

Use Mad Monkey as your base to experience northern Thailand's biggest adventures. Visit an ethical Elephant Sanctuary, climb through the famous Sticky Waterfalls, spend the day at the Grand Canyon Water Park, soar above the jungle on a zipline, or learn authentic Thai flavours in a local cooking class. Whatever's on your list, you can book it all directly through the hostel.

Step outside and you'll find Chiang Mai's best experiences within easy reach, from Tha Pae Gate and the Old City's ancient temples to buzzing night markets, rooftop bars, local cafes, and some of Thailand's best street food. When you're ready to call it a night, head back to our air-conditioned dorms or private rooms, pull the privacy curtain, recharge, and get ready to do it all again tomorrow. Remember if you book directly, you get additional free nights and loyalty perks.

Because the best travel stories don't happen on an itinerary. They happen when one adventure leads to another, strangers become your crew, and Chiang Mai gives you plenty of reasons to stay just one more night.
