About BED Friends Poshtel

BED Friends Poshtel is centrally located on Phaholyothin Road, offering guests convenient access to Chiang Rai's night bazaar, the bus station, and several temples. The poshtel concept bridges the gap between budget hostels and mid-range hotels, providing clean, comfortable rooms that are particularly suitable for solo travelers and small groups who value reliable quality without paying full hotel rates.

The atmosphere is more quiet and relaxed than sociable, making it ideal for travelers who prefer relaxation to nightlife. A rooftop garden invites guests to linger, and a simple breakfast of coffee, tea, toast, and eggs is included each morning. Guests consistently describe the rooms as clean and comfortable, and the reception staff is particularly praised for their helpfulness and friendliness. Bicycles are available for rent nearby, allowing guests to easily explore the city and surrounding area on their own.

    A charming hostel in the heart of Chiang Rai, just a short walk from several temples, the night bazaar, and the bus station. Numerous bicycle rental shops are also nearby. The room was comfortable, and the shared bathroom was very clean. A free breakfast is offered on the second floor, and there's a rooftop terrace for relaxing and enjoying the view. The staff are very friendly and helpful, making you feel completely at ease.

    Great accommodation for a small price! The bathrooms were spotless. The water was a bit cold, though. The staff were very helpful and friendly, especially the young lady at reception! It can get a little noisy in the evenings as there's a bar opposite, but nothing too bad.

    Very clean and comfortable. The rooftop garden is lovely and quiet. Reasonable price. Highly recommended. Very central location near the bus station and night market.

    Tips for visiting hotels and resorts

    Compare the rates of online travel agencies and direct providers.

    After finding a deal on Agoda or Booking.com, you should always check the hotel's own website as well. Many Thai hotels offer a best price guarantee or extras like free breakfast when booking directly.

    Location is more important than the stars

    A well-located 3-star hotel is often better than a remote 5-star resort. In Bangkok, proximity to a BTS or MRT station saves hours; on islands, proximity to the desired beach is crucial.
