Great staff, great location and a nice room. You can book lots of things with the hostel including a trip to the elephant sanctuary which I would highly recommend!

Cheap, noisy and smelly bathroom”

It's a good deal for the price u pay, bathrooms were really smelly, there is no shampoo, shower gel, you have to bring your own. Wooden floors makes the while house super noisy, if u are not lucky with neighbours as I was. The room is small, but clean, we had problems with ants, they bite us over night. I would give it 5/10.

Great Hostel with Relaxed Vibe”

We really enjoyed our stay here. The building is traditional Thai teak and has cool chill out and communal areas. The traditional build does mean you can hear your neighbours like they are in the room with you but people were respectful when we were there. Staff are helpful and nice and the breakfast is good. It's also a great location in the old city but a little bit out of the way so quieter.

We couldn’t sleep!”

When we first arrived at Bann elephant, I was so happy as it looked very chilled and unique, however everything is wooden, and it’s only a wooden panel between rooms, so we could hear everything. Shared showers wasn’t clean. Communal area was lovely, staff were helpful.

Cheap hostel with Lanna style”

Cheap hostel Local house style

Nie polecam”

Miły personel i dobra lokalizacja i koniec plusów. W pokojach są pluskwy, proponowano nam inne pokoje, wszędzie brudna i poplamiona pościel. Nie warto.

Trevligt”

My main issue is that it smells like stinky feet everywhere. I just couldn't stand it. The toilet needs improvement. The lighting in the room is too gloomy.

Feels like home”

Bann Elephant Home feels like you’re at home. Nice, quiet and beautiful place. The staff is very helpful, will answer all your questions and give suggestions when needed. At the same time they will leave you alone when you don’t want to strike a conversation.

Uncomfortable, noisy, no daylight...”

We had booked a room with own bathroom and gardenview. We had our own bathroom but the gardenview was a 50x20 cm hole in the upper end of the wall. Garden view like in a prison or even less. It was really noisy all the time cause the rooms were next to the hang around area. Also we heard every step from the people on the room on the floor ebove us. One night we were sitting outside in the later Evening at the smoking area. Every time we were sitting there they usually turned on the fan against the mosquitos. On that evening they turned of and told us it’s time to go to bed. Well no problem but the way they told us were really impolite. Can’t recommend this hostel. Sorry.

Great value for money ”

The staff at this hostel are friendly and great. They bend over backwards to help. It’s location is a plus. I would recommend this hostel for your stay in Chiang Mai, especially in the Old City, An Elderly Backpacker.

Nice and quiet hostel with welcoming family atmosphere ”

But not the best hostel in Chiang Mai

Stay at this place”

My mates and I stayed here a couple of nights, couldn’t ask for more. Great value and everyone loves you. Stay here.

Excellent hostel in the old City of Chiang Mai”

Lively, lovely, joyful.

Great atmosphere”

Bann Elephant is a beautiful traditional Thai home with lots of wood and cozy decoration that really feels like home. There are lots of places where you can sit down comfortably and meet some new friends or just read a book. The only bad thing is that the common bathrooms were not clean, the shelves looked like they had not been cleaned for months and there was a thick layer of grease on the water heaters. There's also no toiletries and not even soap. Ratings could easily go up if someone would take care of these basics.

Acceptabelt”

We were there when some of the bathrooms were under construction which was unfortunate

good staff”

In the corner of the old city, we cannot find it in the first time but latter is ok. It's so clean here,and the staff so nice!

Not welcoming”

We have a 7 months baby, and the first welcome was asking us if the baby crying in the night because the room are wooden room. Well it's a baby, our is not a crying baby, but anyway this does not make us feel confortable. If they have problems they could write not babies and pet allowed!! The room is small, but very clean, the matrass very confortble, but the room is completely dark. 2 windows looking inside the living room!!! In our floor for more than 10 room plus a dorm we had just 2 shared bathroom!! The price compare to the facilities was the most expensive we paid in Chiang Mai, and we are travelling in Chiang Mai many years

No value for money”

I stayed at the same price at other places, and this is expensive compared to what you get. Old shower and bathroom and very uncomfortable to use- it is located literally outside the room you open a door from your room at it is as if they turned a balcony into a bathroom. No mosquito nets on windows although there are lots of them. I don't mind walking but important to mention the location is a 30 minutes walk from the night Bazar.

Över medel”

Clean and a few blocks from the main attractions in old town. Not a bad place for travelers on a budget but also nothing special

Ok for the price”

The place is ok for the price but the room had a smell of naftalin.
