Norn Nung Len Cafe'&Hostel

Cafe

😠 Overpriced and overrated! Breakfast (cookies and coffee) for the price I’ve paid I already had (in bigger cities) a way better breakfast. The beds are comfortable but really noisy and they have no side table!!! So when you are on the top one you don’t have where to put mobile or bottle of water...... People often mention hostel, good, music, nice, staff, live, great, cafe, stay,

    Really cool hostel, really friendly staff. We enjoyed the live music on Saturday night. Loved the breakfast biscuits, free water and free soft drink every day! We stayed in the tent which was very comfortable and surprisingly private. Clean, hot showers.

    Tip top, super duper. Really lovely staff (thank you, Pat & Co. :-) ) and a good place to hang out. Good bed and comfy linen! The grey brick style & graffitis go well with the hostel concept and although you might think that it would give a somewhat "cold" impression, actually, the opposite is true. Beautiful "host family". And great location near good street food stands, bars, coffee shops and markets. ☆♡☆

    Overpriced and overrated! Breakfast (cookies and coffee) for the price I’ve paid I already had (in bigger cities) a way better breakfast. The beds are comfortable but really noisy and they have no side table!!! So when you are on the top one you don’t have where to put mobile or bottle of water... No hot water shower!!! in Chiang Rai (late November) the weather is cold so having to shower in cold water is not nice. Everyday live music until 12pm. I’ve had a bad experience regarding the laundry. First they had some softer and detergent close to the machine and the instructions is to do it by yourself and then go downstairs to pay at the cashier. The “detergent” was bleach (the package was in Thai) so I turned up damaging my clothes. When I went to pay the lady told me that she didn’t know what was the detergent we use because it was supposed to ask for it (totally different than what you see on the instructions on the laundry machine) and she started to laugh when I told her that maybe that was floor bleach... They actually knew it because later that day every single mop and detergent that was next to the machine was removed! And then one of my brand shirts (new one) was stollen when it was for drying in the proper terrace. They have advises every about their CCTV cameras that kind of makes you feel watched all the time but... it turns out they don’t have all the cameras working because when I asked for my shirt they knew nothing about and they said there are no cameras on the laundry area. I don’t know if it was a convenient excuses or not. Anyway they weren’t so helpful in trying to check and see what really happened...

    It's very nice to sit in. The shop owner is very friendly. Excellent.

    Location was great, close to the markets and bus station. The hostel was clean and has separate showers from the toilets. Big chill out area above the cafe. Customer service was good. In my room of 4 there is a window window no curtain which lets light directly to 2 of the beds very early in the morning. If you are a light sleeper this could wake you up earlier than intended. Some parts of the hostel need some TLC for it to have the edge over its competitors. Overall good stay.

    They have live music on weekends. We didn't stay in the hostel, but have eaten and drank here to pass the time. A good place to work if you have a laptop. Staff is friendly, beer is reasonably priced. They have WiFi and clean restrooms.

    Wanted to write a review for this new hostel. It is really nice, my friend and I stayed here when we got dropped off in the center of town and saw their hostel sign. It's new and really nice, such a good atmosphere with music playing, lots of places to hang out or work and excellent internet. We were able to get a lot of work done on our travel blogs here. The staff are great, the owner is lovely and her sister Pat is the best! They really cared about us and helped with everything. The dorms are very nice, AC is a dream and one of the best hostels I have stayed at in Thailand. They will surely do well here with their new hostel. Just today they got a new big sign outside, looks great. Good luck to you guys and travelers make sure to come stay here when you are in Chiang Rai. :D

    Very nice hostel, highly recommend this place!! Location is great, super close to the night market. Staff super friendly and helpful! Hostel is clean and comfortable bed. Dorm room has lots of space to put your backpacks and comes with a small table and a chair. Nice lounge area in the cafe and they always have free snacks, coffee and tea. Nothing to complain and I would stay there again!

    They open the new cafe where you will absolutely enjoy the top roof view and delicious meal! The name of this cafe is Rong Sri located on the fifth floor of Nung Len Cafe. The barbecue is super delicious with affordable price!! The meat is so tender and flavorful. The service and hospitality from the staff here are excellent.

  • 5/5 Destin W. (. 4 years ago on Google
    I'd rate the staff higher if I could. Am and Lyn made this hostel and location one of my top favorites! Wi-Fi had minor issues but in small towns it may be that way everywhere. The room seemed always hot despite the constant AC set to its lowest at 16. Is suggest mini fans for each bed. Again the staff and live music compensated now than enough and I wouldn't consider any other hostel here! Oh loved the food and smoothies too! Mix up to three flavors!

    Never stay at the hostel, but the bar was nice. They used to have a live music on the first floor but then they moved to the nice rooftop. Drinks are cheap but still nice.

  • 4/5 Purple A. 5 years ago on Google
    Really enjoyed it. The food was good, the atmosphere had a cool vibe and the staff were great. Serves meat but did have some vegan options. I had the blackbean burger, fries, drink and vegetarian dumplings - total cost 210 Thai Baht or roughly £4.92. English spoken was of a high level and the free WiFi was very good. Definitely worth a visit vegetarian or not. Centrally located as well.

    Had a great burger and salad here which both tasted amazing. It looked clean and had a great atmosphere for dinner. When traveling to Chiang-Rai again I will definitely book a room here and I suspect it's just as good as the dinner.

    I didn't stay here but my friends did. They said there was going to be live music so we went and hung out. Drinks are on the expensive side but the live music was good. Not sure why they still have Christmas decorations up in February though :D

    The restaurant's atmosphere is warm and pleasing to the eye, good to a certain extent. The staff welcomed me well. Delicious food is available. There are many foreign tourists. At night there is live music on some days.

👍👍 Very cute coffee place. The cats are all very adorable and the coffee is delicious. They offer you to feed the cats for 40 Thai baht. The food and coffee is a bit on the pricer site but you can sit in the cat room for as long as you want. I would recommend wearing socks as you need to take off your...

👍👍 This restaurant earns its high rating. It's a combination of good food, good service and good atmosphere. I ordered a large pork ribs and they were excellent. Tender and full of flavor. The spicy sauce on the side was very good and well balanced (not Thai level hot). The ribs were very meaty and I c...

She even makes the almond milk with which she prepares the buns for the burgers. The sauces you can add are made...
