Secret Corner Boutique Hostel

Chiang Rai

"I had such an amazing stay at Secret Corner. The room and common areas are spotless, and the rooftop was such a great spot! I found myself spending my mornings on the rooftop doing work, and spending evenings on the rooftop socializing. The staff was also incredibly friendly and helped me plan some of my day to day itineraries. I would come back to Secret Corner next time I'm in Chiang Rai in a heartbeat."

Nak Nakara Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"By far the best hotel we stayed at in Thailand. The staff was genuinely nice. The rooms were clean and comfortable. The architecture of the hotel is also interesting. We were so happy the shower water gets really hot since our Chiang Mai hotel it only was slightly warm. The included breakfast was also good for hotel breakfast quality. Would definitely book here again."
