I really enjoyed my staff at the hostel. It was perfect for Songkran. The staff is so friendly. The bunks are super comfy. I would gladly come back!

The workers were incredible. Thank you especially to Poupèe and Sara who really made the experience and elevated it especially for one of our friends who was struggling.

The staff is the best and they genuinely care about you and connect you with other travelers. It’s overall a very relaxed vibe and I probably had the best sleep there on 4 weeks of backpacking there

Really enjoyed staying in Connection Hostel. The staff were the best and the common room is a good way to meet new people and break the ice with games. They have good services like the shuttle to Pai and a ton of crackers to scran whenever you’re in the kitchen. Would recommend but the doors need a tutorial on how to open

Connection Hostel had a very cool vibe and the staff are amazing. If you sit in the common room for a while, you get talking to people quite quick. The pool table and the crackers are a nice touch.

Really enjoyed my stay here. The staff were lovely and met loads of people even though I only stayed 1 night. Booked late so only had a female en-suite dorm available but the bathroom was lovely. The outside common area was great for chatting to people too.

This hostel is incredible! Social hostel with a great space to hangout and meet people! The staff are super helpful with giving recommendations and arranging tours for you! Poupée in particular is AMAZING!! She is so kind and I got to know her on a personal level which made my stay so much better! I would absolutely recommend this hostel!

they provide instant coffee and tea bags which is nice. the place felt almost deserted in only March. there is a lack of water pressure, evident in the taps, the showers (which were not very warm but useable) and most importantly the bum guns. I'm usually ok with unisex bathrooms but the layout was awkward with only two sinks that were next to each other. the beds were very comfortable and the rooms very clean

Personnel très gentil et serviable, activités organisées tous les jours pour aider à socialiser et les dortoirs donnent l’intimité. Douches froides et lits plutôt inconfortables mais pas dramatiques. Bon prix.

One of the best and most social hostels I’ve stayed in so far, Sara and the rest of the staff were so welcoming and did an amazing job at creating an amazing environment. Not a party hostel but really social.
