Prawdao Resort

The hostel is located in the perfect area by the river, close to everything but also far enough to be quiet. They have an amazing BBQ restaurant on site and plenty of activities for the guests. The reps are AMAZING!! Huge SHOUTOUT to them! They always try to help you, they always smile and they are just super fun to be around. Reps, music, food, activites and location are 10/10

I must say that I visited during a very busy time and the first 2 days/nights (I stayed for 5 days in total at this place) were not comfortable. If you can afford a private room during peak season, go for it. The dorms were very loud, always people coming in and out and not so clean cuz of all of the traffic. I couldn't enjoy any privacy at any moment of the day or night but again it was A VERY BUSY week for Pai.

Clean, spacious. Great location. Easy to book tours. Lovely staff. Helped us with everything and even cooked us some Khao Soi

Weak AC

The pool when clean was fab, and the bar and Thai staff were great. Location was great, and the excursions booked through hostel (half day trip with 6 stops) was amazing and met loads of really cool people.

The reps sometimes took things a bit too far, the "organised fun" was sometimes a bit cringey, things like smash or pass so maybe a lot better venue for teenagers and early 20s. For 2 girls in there late 20s it made us feel quite old, where as other hostels were more inclusive!

perfect for socialising and meeting people always get things on in the evening such as games or party’s. we’ll equipped bar with quick service and good prices. good for solo travellers. Bar at the hostel closed 12 or before every night so if you do want some quite you are able to have it. Receive dinner included in the price in the evening, very tasty!

bathroom was a bit dirty and floor was as well but not awful. can be a bit loud when people come home from clubs so probably need ear plugs.

Very social hostel with great reps. Taylor was fab when we arrived and at organising activities without them feeling like forced fun. Met Hannah on our last night and she was fab too! Lockers in the room were great to securely store belongings.

Bathrooms are looking a little tired and received a message upon booking giving details of activities which sounded great but when we arrived we were told they weren’t running in wet season which was disappointing.

Absolute amazing time! From the moment I walked in I knew I was in the right place. The staff were super welcoming and helpful and there were a lot of people just hanging around enjoying the day. The hostel had a nice vibe about it and was right on the river. Early morning coffee was super peaceful sitting by the water, but the nights are crazy fun! Pretty much the entire hostel hangs out at the bar in the evening for the free family dinner. We played some drinking games and I had a couple of buckets before joining the pub crawl down the walking street. Huge shoutout to the reps and staff for making me feel so welcome! I will be back for some more wild nights!

The only thing that was a bit of a downer was the fact I couldn't stay longer! Love this place!

The best Social hostel I’ve ever stayed in. Planed on staying a couple of nights but ended up staying for 8 nights. The facilities were excellent and the staff were even better. Special mention to all the Thai staff who were so helpful throughout my stay. Big mention to the fabulous Manager Tanisha who couldn’t of been nicer from the minute I arrived. To all the reps Emma, Izzy(needs to practice her Irish accent), Frazer and of course Callum who worked tirelessly throughout. I can’t wait to return

WOOOWWW! Sick vibe and great atmosphere! As a solo traveler was welcomed so warm and felt like at home from the first minute I stepped into this place. Staff very nice and helpful and all the volunteers create atmosphere you’ll never forget it. Also facilities great and beds are very comfortable with curtains to have your lil privacy. It’s defo one of my highlights during this trip and have no doubt I’m coming back again soon! Thank you all!

Clean room, nice service, affordable price, amazing view, and good location. There is a walking street nearby and the hotel has a big parking lot. I really recommend this place for anyone who wanna visit Pai. Will definitely come back again.

We upgraded from a double room to one of the larger cottages for a week - lovely grounds, very friendly and accommodating staff, free drinking water [buy a refillable bottle and say no to plastic :)], tea and instant coffee. We had a few requests [to add a table and two chairs and to get a second duvet] and the staff was very helpful. The open common area features a working space with low and high chairs, hammocks and tables, with sockets - ideal for working if you need to. And I hear they're planning some upgrades to make it even more welcoming. All in all, we enjoyed our stay and we'll surely return when it's warmer. :)

The material the cottages are built from is highly conducting - it's super warm during the day [but they offer A/C] and very cold at night [we stayed in February, 12 C at night]. The bathroom could be improved - there's no shower cabin/curtain [it's a showerhead between the sink and the toilet, but that's not a major inconvenience unless you're very picky :)] and the window doesn't close properly so it's very cold at night.
