Comfort Zone Hostel @ Tha Pae

Situated in Chiang Mai and within 500 metres of Tha Pae Gate, Comfort Zone Hostel @ Tha Pae has a shared lounge, non-smoking rooms, and free WiFi. The property is close to several well-known attractions, 1.3 km from Chiang Mai Gate, 1.6 km from Chang Puak Gate and 2 km from Wat Phra Singh. The accommodation features airport transfers, while a bicycle rental service is also available. as someone who is picky with what hostel they stay at (and reads tons of reviews before booking) this hostel absolutely exceeded my expectations. george and his wife kim are the most incredible people. (I would come back and stay here just for them) the rooms are clean, beds are so comfortable, showers are clean, you get a locker AND an extra drawer for your stuff, and it is very close to everything in CM. the best part is that the kitchen has a ton of snacks, drinks and coffee all day. I am already planning my trip back here and cannot wait to come back just because of this hostel. thank you george for being the best host and for your incredible hospitality!!
