Hostels in Shanghai, China

This is a wonderful place! There’s a piano, a large screen TV for you to do karaoke. It is ALWAYS clean. The showers are nice. There’s shampoo, conditioner etc. in the shower. The washing machine and dryer are brand new, with washing liquid provided. The towel provided is fluffy and lovely. The whole place is so opulently decorated! There’s a lift, so you don’t need to carry your luggage up any stairs. There’s water and tea provided 24/7. The bed is comfortable, lovely white sheets and fluffy duvet. The toilet seats are heated! The rooms are lovely and large. Plenty of room to open your suitcase up fully. Personal Charging ports in your bed area + a personal lockable safe in your bed area too. Across the road from the metro, so super easy to get around! Great location. Lots of places to eat close by, and mini-marts for fruit and veges etc. highly recommend!!! Clean, safe, big, lovely. I was booked for three nights and extended it to 10 nights! I felt so safe as a solo female traveller. So glad I chose to stay!

really cute and nice place but bathroom was very very dirty. ***** hair in the shower and clogged drain, i had to ask them to unclog twice, first time guy went and kinda pretended to unclog, and the second time they just said “it will go down slowly” and just left the drain clogged. bathroom was really wet after shower. also had to ask to clean the ***** hairs and they didn’t clean properly. the toilet was dirty and the sink was also dirty around the drain. no elevators so be prepared if you come with heavy luggage. room is very nice and clean. desk girls were also very nice. the cat in the lobby was my favourite part. I’d just like to ask them to pay more attention to the cleanliness and unclog the drains. I would definitely stay there again though.

My stay was fine overall. I appreciated that they allowed me to refund the remaining nights when I decided to check out earlier than expected. The rooms are clean, but if you end up with messy roommates, it can get untidy quickly. The toilets could use better maintenance, though. On the plus side, the place feels secure, with a personal locker provided for each guest in the room.

I stayed at the Dajin Youth Hostel for 1 month during my language exchange in Shanghai. Normally, staying at a hostel for that long wouldn’t be possible for me—at some point, you just need a bit more comfort. That’s also why I didn’t pre-book everything in advance. Nevertheless, I ended up staying a full month and never once felt like I was missing out on much luxury. The rooms and the bathroom were quite nice and cleaned several times a day. I also had normal roommates—no weirdos at all. What made the stay really special was the people. Everyone I met there was super friendly. During my month-long stay, I never felt alone. Whenever I felt like socializing, I just went to the lobby, and within 5 minutes I’d be chatting with five new people. If you ever need some quiet time, there’s a really nice working area on the third floor—perfect for getting things done or just having a bit of ”me time.” The hostel’s infrastructure was also great. They have a clean, well-equipped gym (I mean its a free gym in a hostel), working zones on both the 3rd and 2th floors, a makeup room, a call room, and a free laundry room with plenty of space to hang your clothes. And of course, the lobby has a great bar with every kind of beer you can imagine. The staff were amazing—young adults who are always ready to help and also just super chill to talk to. Big shoutout to Jing, Ze, Zhu, and Niu! Hope I’ll see you again when I come back. Thanks for the pleasant stay!

The location is very convenient, it’s not far from Hongqiao airport and close to the railway station, and you can get everywhere in downtown very fast. The room was very comfortable and very quiet, the hotel looks new and well maintained, it’s very clean. They provide good Chinese tea in the room, and a lot of other things, there is a coffee station on the lobby, self laundry and everything you need. The personnel is very helpful, I think, all of the workers or most of them speak English very well. I appreciate to ms Wu Qiu and Mr Tang for warm welcoming, I enjoyed my stay, thank you!

Nice location with a lot of restaurant and market nearby. 15 min walk from the subway or the Shanghai Railway Station. Room was dirty with handkerchiefs below the bed and dust everywhere. But it's one of the most cheapest place of the town so it's okay

The location is the best. The dormitory has a shelf on the wall of the private bed View of Nanjing East Road from the dormitory. Beer, beverages, snacks and cup noodles are available for purchase in public spaces. The smell of cigarettes and cleaning in the accommodation need to be improved.

Can be a good option, the localisation is good for the price. Plus : nice staff, common area is very nice Cons: I was in a room for 4 we had a bathroom for us, the door was a lightly smoked glass with a big gap = no shower or going to the toilet in peace And the room it was not really clean

This is an amazing hostel in a fantastic area of Shanghai located near 2 subway lines, several malls and many buses and walking distance to Shanghai tower/ Oriental pearl tower! A little hard to find on the 2nd floor inside the shopping center at 4am but when called they were able to give directions. (Called Dengba Inn on Apple Maps) Everyone is really friendly here and the stay is great! The bed is a typical cabin bed but you get an outlet, fresh bedding (put on yourself) and a little table and light. The bed is comfy, the room has a shower and toilet separate from the sink which is useful and great when sharing with other people - though can be a little messy! (You get your own locker - safe with only keycard access but people leave things everywhere! Not the places fault) Couldn’t recommend this place enough and if I go back would definitely stay here again!

It was a great experience. The hostel is quite easy to find, but the pannel is in chinese only. I have stayed in a 8 beds female room for one night. The room was great, it provided sleepers, sheets and even had air conditionning. The showers were pretty good. It was very calm the night that I have stayed. The bed is big and confortable and big. There was much place for storing things inside of the bed. However, the locker didn't work. The common space is nice and cozy, the view is cool (view picture attached). I didn't but you can order drinks there. The location is very convenient, close to the bund, you can just walk. It is close to the subway. I highly recommend this hostel.
