Buzzas @ Pai Chan, hotel in Pai

Buzzas @ Pai Chan features an outdoor swimming pool, garden, a shared lounge and restaurant in Pai.

The location was great. Far enough from the crowds but a short walk away for good food & bike rental. The rooms were clean, the food decent and the view and vibe chilled. Staff were very helpful arranging travel and with local directions. Free, fresh coffee, hammocks to chill in. I stayed in a 6 bed dorm for 3 nights and extended my stay by 1 night for which I moved into a private bungalow. Both options were great! The dorm provided comfortable bed, decent shower and respect room mates. The private room, well… I just loved it… all of the aforementioned but with privacy and my own balcony. It is worth noting that 3 of my room mates also extended their stay at this property. If I ever visit Pai again, I will absolutely want to stay here.

    This is a super cute guesthouse! I arrived to Pai with a low budget and I really wanted to be close to the center. The location is amazing, the room is simple and cozy, really kind host, and a fun balcony to hung out. I think it’s perfect for a solo traveler looking for a simple place in a great location. Definitely value for money!

The staff is amazingly friendly and super helpful with everything. Dorms are comfy, spacious, cleaned and well maintained. This is a 11/10 hostel for sure! They have food and drinks with a decent price. Loved it so much I had to extend for one more night.

    The lady who runs the hostel is amazing! She can help you with literally anything - she can book your transport for the cheapest rate going, she got me a safety pin when i had a splinter and just in general i really felt like she was looking out for me which was so lovely especially as a solo female traveller. The beds too are super comfy with njce curtains and bathrooms njce too plus the garden is gorgeous - super nice place to chill you wouldn’t believe it’s right next to walking street - location could not be more perfect

    The best hostel we have stayed at in Thailand by far! Rooms are very clean and new, shower is amazing! Very sociable hostel! Bar open every night with good night life (special shout out to the bar man who was so lovely). The bar has all sorts of games out for you to get involved with… beer pong, connect 4, Uno, cards etc… met so many great people at this hostel! Great location and staff are very welcoming. Pool is clean and refreshing when it’s sunny. Cannot fault this hostel at all! Perfect for young backpackers who love to socialise!

    I think this is the best hostel in Pai! Good atmosphere and many opportunities to meet new people. The managers are very involved with the guests. Yoga classes are offered every day and trips are organized. The rooms are hygienic and comfortable enough. Good value for money. I would definitely go back here and regret not being able to stay longer.
