Pai Circus Hostel was absolutely amazing! The views were stunning, the atmosphere was so laid-back and social, and it was the perfect place to meet great people. Everything about the hostel made it an unforgettable experience. Rhiannon was a fantastic rep—always friendly, super helpful, and full of great recommendations. She really added to the welcoming vibe of the place and made sure everyone was having a great time.

The only minor imperfections were the weather, which wasn’t great during my stay (though, of course, they couldn’t control that!), and the WiFi, which lagged a bit here and there. But honestly, those didn’t take away from how fantastic the place was. I’d definitely stay again!

I recently stayed at the Pai circus hostel, and it was an incredible experience! The atmosphere was super welcoming, the facilities were clean and comfortable, and the location was perfect for exploring the area. The common areas made it easy to meet other travelers, and the vibe was just right—relaxed but social. A huge shoutout to Rhiannon, the rep at the hostel! She was absolutely amazing—so friendly, helpful, and always had a smile on her face. Whether it was giving great recommendations, organizing activities, or just making sure everyone felt at home, she went above and beyond to make our stay special. If you're looking for a great place to stay in Thailand, I highly recommend [Hostel Name]. And if you're lucky enough to have Rhiannon around during your visit, you’re in for an even better time! 🌟 Would definitely stay here again!

Honestly, there wasn’t anything I didn’t like! Everything was well-run, and I had a great experience. It was exactly what I was looking for!!

There were some things I liked from the pool and the excellent location the spectacular view and the excellent staff, Chris Ang were really nice at the reception and helped me check in and settle easily thanks to them. I want to say that Amelia and Freya raised the mood and made the place lively and happy. They introduced me to the city and helped me get to know and connect with the environment. Thank you for a perfect stay. I will definitely come back.

I think the number of showers should be increased and installed in the bungalow as well. Bringing more chairs during rush hours was felt to be lacking. More options in the restaurant in terms of desserts, side dishes and main food

Dave! He was a great rep for the hostel. He had so much zest for life and went above and beyond to make sure everyone felt welcome and was having a good time. He even took us on a few excursions in his free time. The hostel was great! Beautiful views and he capybara cafe was really cool. We kept extending our stay since we loved it so much.

The bathrooms were always pretty dirty. They could have been cleaned more frequently since it was always a struggle to find a clean toilet.

The hostel Reps were SO great!! They were friendly and approachable and always had such great recommendations for things to do and see

While I was there the water was turned off for periods of the day for repairs. This happened a few days in a row and was quite frustrating. As well as this, the showers were not very clean and the water pressure was pretty disappointing. Still LOVED the stay though!

The staff are so funny and helpful, good English. Willing to move my dorm due to some roudy boys that made me feel unsafe with a free upgrade. Very social with mostly lovely people. The free taxi to town and pick up was a definite highlight for someone who didn't feel confident renting their own moped. You can book all tours and the common areas are so lovely. The view! So generous and kind. The party vibes did not go late at all and it's all shut down by midnight. The 4 person dorms up the back are the best with the privates a close second. Worth the money and great food. Love the privacy of the curtain. Got given a blanket and yoga mat when woken up early by snoring guys. They do have mopeds you can hire. The puppy is amazing!!!

No circus classes or yoga/activities. Roudy guests after tubing. No hot water in the bathrooms near my dorm and minimal in the main - very run down ones. I liked that they attempted to keep them clean they just need redoing. It's pretty far out to walk but most tours pick you up and it was a bit too cold to use the pool. The aircon was making a god awful squeaking sound and the toilet drips.

We enjoyed the good location of the hostel especially sunset, the staff were great aswell especially Dave he was always there to help out and have a chat with you I think it adds an extra level of service that makes the hostel more enjoyable and approachable especially when it’s your first day there.

A lot of bugs but expected as it is more rural.

They organise buses which is nice and things like the sunset tour. The single room I had was nice and there's a good atmosphere there, with a fire and pool. Kris at the desk is super helpful, as are all the staff!

Bit far from the town itself. The sockets in the rooms are awkwardly places as well, had to do a lot of balancing to get my phone to charge.

This hostel is a hidden gem in Pai! The atmosphere is lively and welcoming, and the pool is the perfect spot to unwind after exploring. The view here is incredible, nothing compares. The campfire every night is a great way to meet fellow travelers, and the capybara cafe is a must-visit. Rhiannon is an amazing rep who went above and beyond to make our stay exceptional
