Hostels in Guangdong, China

I was impressed just as I entered the place..the ambiance was great with that sense of community that I liked..the safe locks are cute,something I never anticipated which gives a sense of security plus the staff can communicate in English..the thoughtfulness in the ladies washrooms ughhh😘😘😍..the hostel is strategically located near a metro station which makes moving around Guangzhou very easy and cheaply..for the money value,totally better than most hotels I’ve stayed at..I would stay again while in Guangzhou ..

This hostel was quite comfortable, mainly because the owner really pays attention to many details. For example, there was always toilet paper in the bathroom – not once did it run out during my month-long stay. If the shoe rack wasn't suitable, the owner would replace it with a new one. Also, if someone was smoking 🚬 or making loud noise after midnight, the owner would genuinely step in to stop it. The owner runs this hostel with great dedication, making it a perfect spot for anyone visiting Shenzhen on business to rest and spend the night.

I usually never bother to write reviews for accommodations, but after having a simple lunch for over 100 RMB in Huaqiangbei today, I suddenly felt compelled to review the Qiyou Hostel where I'm staying. For just 88 RMB a night, it's not only clean, comfortable, and has warm, attentive service, but it's truly a condensed five-star hotel experience. The lobby is spacious and bright, and they offer free freshly ground coffee – yes, free! Many five-star hotels I've stayed in don't even offer complimentary freshly ground coffee! They also have free tea, direct-drink hot and cold water, and separate male and female rest areas. The guests all seem very respectful; the lounge area is really quiet. The sleeping pods are incredibly comfortable too; the bed is spacious enough, there's air conditioning, a locker for personal items, and hooks to hang things. Everyone in the sleeping area also has a locker that can fit a large suitcase. The lovely front desk staff told me that if I have a lot of luggage, I can store it in their baggage room. They have a wide selection of books available for free loan. In the evenings, you'll see groups of guests sitting in the lobby, chatting softly – many foreigners, men and women, old and young, all looking very relaxed. Besides not providing disposable toiletries, they offer everything else a star-rated hotel would. Oh, and you can buy toiletries and other common necessities from the vending machine in the lobby, and the prices are very reasonable. You can tell the owner genuinely cares. Highly recommend!

The location is excellent, close to the subway, and there are plenty of dining options nearby. **Facilities:** Very complete. The shower and toilet are separate, and the shower has a high-quality hairdryer. There's also a washing machine and dryer, which are very affordable to use. The vanity area is separate from the bathroom, and there's a tea area too. The common areas include a co-working space with ample outlets and fast Wi-Fi. The beds have clean, fresh sheets and pillowcases, and they provide a basic toiletry kit and bath towels. **Service:** Very thoughtful. They thoroughly explain and demonstrate the facilities and their functions, and even help with luggage. The common areas are also well-maintained and clean. **Cons:** The outdoor drying area is a bit small and not quite proportional to the number of guests. After 1 AM, many roommates were still coming and going, and the door opening sounds were quite loud, which disturbed my sleep. It would be great if they could reinforce reminders about noise. Overall, it's excellent value for money and highly recommended.

Easy to find location, just a few hundred meters from the subway exit (though the closest exit doesn't have an elevator). There's also a bus stop very close by, and shared bikes and ride-sharing are all convenient. The front desk staff were very friendly and pleasant to interact with. Everyone in the common areas seemed relaxed. They have hot water, a vanity area, a sofa, and a dining area. Luggage storage is very convenient, and the washing facilities are good. The downside is that the ramp leading upstairs is too steep, making it really difficult with a suitcase. Going down, it was almost impossible to use the ramp; I had to carry my suitcase down. The air conditioning in the common area was set very low because there were a lot of people, which is understandable, but it made it incredibly damp for me. I personally found it too humid to tolerate.

Very good price for what it is. Location is a little far out (but right next to the metro so no problems) and well away from the touristy areas. It felt like living like a local in Shenzhen! Food options were therefore excellent. Those from abroad should have these expectations: it is an ordinary 41st floor apartment in an apartment complex, but with around 20 beds put in there. It is not your typical European hostel. There are two bathrooms shared between this many people. You can imagine the pros and cons of this - but generally I did not mind after a while. The sheets were clean and the curtains were excellent and black-out. I really enjoyed my stay here, and recommend it if you’re on a budget and don’t mind a few tradeoffs. There is no check in desk or similar, but the customer service through messaging was excellent. WeChat is recommended. Overall I am happy.

The facilities are incredibly comprehensive. They even have a vanity room for women, complete with various types of curling irons! The beds are wide and the bedding is very comfortable. The public restrooms and showers are also excellent. The staff are incredibly thoughtful, and their duties are clearly divided. There was even a man to help carry luggage, which made for a very pleasant stay~

This is by far the most conscientious youth hostel in Guangzhou. They didn't even hike up prices during the May Day holiday. Plus, there's a great tea restaurant downstairs with delicious food, and the owner is incredibly kind. The staff are also very warm and generous. I always stay here whenever I'm back in Guangzhou.

Came to Guangzhou specifically for the food, and choosing this hotel was definitely the right call. It's just a thirteen-minute walk to Bing Sheng Pin Wei for authentic Cantonese cuisine. Downstairs, there are tons of local snack shops offering everything from dim sum and BBQ meats to congee and noodles. After exploring the night markets, it was great to come back and find a hot water dispenser in the public area. The air conditioning in the room was excellent, making sure it wasn't stuffy even in summer.

The facilities are excellent, and the location next to Jinsha Park is lively in the evenings. There's a commercial street next to the park, making it convenient for dining and shopping. The bathrooms are very clean, but the hostel doesn't have curtains; it would be better if the business owners could install them.
