Great location, walking distance to bus station, Night Bazaar and perfect for sightseeing even on foot. The staff really outstanding! Thanks to Nes and the young girl whose name I unfortunately don't remember, ready to give a lot of advice and information and very serious and attentive in the management and cleaning of the facility. Initially I was a bit scared seeing the dormitory with 12 beds, instead I slept great! Big room and always fresh air, the solution with the curtains attached to the beds is great! Nice terrace! The whole Hostel was always very clean! Coffee, tea, bananas and cookies always available! At this price, a real pampering!

Situated in Chiang Rai and with Clock Tower Chiang Rai reachable within 600 metres, Busket Hostel features express check-in and check-out, non-smoking rooms, a shared lounge, free WiFi throughout the property and a terrace. The property is located 3.7 km from Central Plaza ChiangRai, 13 km from Wat Rong Khun - The White Temple and 19 km from Mae Fah Luang University. The accommodation provides a shared kitchen, a tour desk and luggage storage for guests. The location was perfect- a 3 or so minute walk from the bus station and a couple minute walk to the night market. The woman who runs it was very nice and helpful. Also the hostel has a half day sightseeing excursion with a driver for 500 baht which takes you to White temple, blue temple, Lolita cafe and the Big Buddha- great value if you only want to see the temples and don’t want to do the long full day excursions online that go to Golden Triangle as well. Property was very clean, rooms and lockers were spacious, and overall was a great stay.
