Green Sleep Hostel

Friendly helpful staff clean sanitary.

My single room was on the 4th floor. The men’s bathroom is on the 3rd floor. The distance was no problem. The bathroom was cleaned daily. MON at the front desk was my favorite receptionist because she did more than just greet you, she carried on a conversation which made me feel welcome. I felt 10 times safer in Thailand than at home. The air conditioning in my room was good. The breakfast was unlimited watermelon, banana and bread with jam. Because I eat only two meals a day, I would eat another small breakfast of two eggs, sausage and fruit at a restaurant only a block away and the meals were never more than $3 US dollars. For supper I went to a restaurant only one block away that had the best price and selection around which was identified by a food critic staying in the hostel. The price of the stay in the Green Sleep hostel was 1/3 the cost of my hostel in Phuket and 1/4 the cost of my hostel in Bangkok. For transportation, I used the red songtowls found only a block away and Grab which would pick you up at the front door of the hostel. Both are unbelievably cheap and convenient. The Sunday night market, a must to visit in Chiang Mai was one block away. I found a free Buddhist class being held at a temple only one block away that was extremely educational. I found booking my day tours through the hostel to be cheaper and a lot easier than doing it online. To meet anyone in the hostel and get a conversation going, all you have to do is ask them where they are from or what country is on their “bucket list” for next year. I found the Green Sleep hostel is as sociable as you want it to be.

This was my cocoon place all along my stay in Chiang Mai (stayed there twice, one time 4 days and the other time 2 days). For me, that was a perfect match specially on: - Chacha: she animates the place during the afternoon and at night and pretty much connects to everyone. This makes this place feel special and not a passby place. She is part of the reasons that made me come back twice at this hostel. - Hygiene in showers and rooms is great. I don't have much to say as cleaning persons pass every day in showers. - Location: you are at the center of Chiang Mai. It is really easy to access all shops and restaurants! - Common area allows to connect to people quite easily

Staff was great! Especially Chacha from the reception was really fun and always helpful. Location is in the center of the old town, perfect for exploring Chiang Mai. Dorm room was quite big and bed was a bit hard, but comfortable. Shared bathrooms were always clean, but they could use some refreshments.

Stayed in a female 6 bed dorm and was lovely and really clean. Beds and pillows are rock solid but that’s most places in Thailand and Asia I think!! The area to chill out or work and the kitchen was always clean and tidy and nice to hang out! Bathrooms were kept really clean too and not too busy! The girls working there are hilarious and really helpful with organising trips or transport - they are brilliant! Location is great for the old town - you can walk anywhere, the Sunday night market is on your doorstep but it’s behind the hostel so not noisy. There are lots of places to eat, drink, temples etc If you want to go further afield outside of old town it’s not far to get a bolt or hire a bike. The vibe is social but not party but also can be quiet too- a nice mix depending on what you want and who you talk to :) Will definitely come back here for another trip to Chiang Mai :)
