Hostels in Zhejiang, China

I'd heard great things about Backpacker Ten Years (Beibao Shinian) for a while, and experiencing it in Hangzhou definitely confirms it's the best hostel in China. Check-in starts at 2 PM, and they provide a bottle of water, slippers, and a towel – things many other hostels don't offer, but Backpacker Ten Years does. The first floor has a bar and social common area, the second floor is a reading space, and the fourth floor is for accommodations. The environment is really clean. I also experienced a strong hostel culture here, playing Werewolf and going out with new friends. My two-day stay was so enriching, I'll definitely choose Backpacker Ten Years again next time!

I chose this hostel for the Dawn concert on September 13th. It's about a ten-minute walk to Xiaolianhua. The front desk staff, both male and female, were polite and enthusiastic. The bathroom has a separate wet and dry area, with the shower on the left and the vanity on the right as you enter. The shower pressure was great, and the bed was clean. One of my roommates was smoking, but they stopped after I opened the window to air out the room. Overall, everyone was well-behaved and quiet. Everyone also gets an individual locker with a password lock. Other than a roommate's slightly messy suitcase and a few occasionally using instant noodle cups as ashtrays on the floor, everything else was really good.

The location is pretty good, close to West Lake and the subway station, making it easy to find. There's a 'Xiaohongche' (shared bike station) right downstairs at the entrance. Floors 8-10 all belong to the same establishment, with the front desk on the 9th floor. Floors 8 and 9 are for accommodation, and the 10th floor is for recreational activities. It would be better if the male and female dorms were on separate floors, as currently, there are both male and female dorms on the same floor.

This was the first hostel I stayed at in Hangzhou, and it's located near Wensan Road subway station, making transportation very convenient. It's right by Huanglong Times Square, with plenty of dining, entertainment, and shopping options nearby. It's also very close to West Lake, and there are lots of shared bikes around. The hostel walls even have tips for exploring West Lake, along with cherished memories left by past guests. As for the accommodations, they offer blackout curtains, complimentary disposable toothbrushes and towels. The bathroom and shower are separated into wet and dry areas, but both are in the same public space for men and women. In the lobby, there's a free water dispenser with 24-hour hot water, and you'll even find cats and dogs hanging out there.

The front desk staff were incredibly patient and gentle, just absolutely wonderful! 👍👍👍👍👍👍 Choosing this hostel for my trip was definitely the right decision; the overall experience exceeded my expectations, and I'm extremely satisfied. The location is excellent, not far from the subway station and tourist attractions, making it very convenient for getting around and finding food. It's also easy to locate. The hostel itself is clean and cozy, with public areas that are simply and comfortably furnished, creating a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere. Everything is thoroughly cleaned, the beds are tidy, and there's plenty of storage space. The bathroom areas are dry-wet separated and impeccably clean, with no unpleasant odors. The staff are warm, friendly, and approachable, always patiently answering any questions. I'll definitely choose to stay here again next time and wholeheartedly recommend it to fellow travelers!

Located in the West Lake Scenic Area, close to Tiger Run. The public area is quite large, with a courtyard.

Close to the station, more convenient

Not in Wenzhou City. It is a small island on the edge of Wenzhou City called Dongtou. Then in the center of this island (a little on the side) three stops from the bus station terminal. Get off at (Haixia Square Station). The Youth Hostel is oversized and has many rooms. I feel that there are no people that day, clean and hygienic. There is a big dog in the store) very good. There is a battery car in the store. It is very convenient to ride a battery car. The weather was not good in those days and it rained from time to time. The first day was the reception of the proprietress and the next day I saw the boss. They are all pretty good. In comparison, The bed is generally given (just a flat panel, no curtains), but it’s fine to stay for one night (and it can inspire me to get up at dawn the next day. It’s not bad for the bed). The proprietress saw that my clothes were thin and riding a motorbike would be cold and offered me a coat. I am very grateful.

I was really satisfied with the room; it offered great value for money. This guesthouse is quite unique, located within an ancient building. Best of all, there was no formaldehyde smell from renovations, which I'm very sensitive to. While it might be a bit old and small, the overall experience was excellent. They even have their own restaurant, which hosts events every night at 9 PM, like movie screenings, dancing, and releasing river lanterns. The value here is truly unbeatable. Plus, the location is superb – just a 3-minute walk to Lu Xun's Former Residence, right within the scenic area. Highly recommend it, it's really good!

The service was excellent!!! The front desk lady was very considerate and attentive assisting me even before arriving. Later, she promptly helped me on how to get transportation for different sightseeings in Hangzhou, facilitating my stay. The night attendant (a young boy) was also helpful and approachable. The hostel ´s location is just 2-minute walk from a 7-Eleven for essentials and a 5-minute walk from the station. The common area is inviting, with many places to sit and relax, and a water dispenser. Also, the shared dormitory bathroom is very clean. I've enjoyed very much my stay at the hostel :)
