Hostels in Jiangsu, China

Great hostel for travellers to Nanjing! Very conveniently located near a metro stop, the Qinhuai scenic area and Laomendong both of which are lovely to wander around in at night. The hostel is extremely clean with comfortable beds and nice hang out areas. Staff are friendly and helpful and will store your luggage for you free of charge. There is a laundry machine which can be used for free, detergent is 1kuai for a small sachet. The location can be a little hard to find - it's up an elevator on the 5th floor that you can only access from Lianziying Street - look for the signs for ”Driftwood” which is the bar attached to the hostel.

I had a fantastic stay at Sawmill Youth Hostel. The place was always clean, and the common areas never had any unpleasant smells. The bathrooms were spotless and dry, with no standing water. My bed was tidy, and all the bedding was brand new. The front desk staff were very friendly and patiently answered all my questions. They were quick to help with any issues. The lobby had a relaxed atmosphere, and I enjoyed participating in the games organized by the hostel in my free time. The location was convenient for getting around, and there were plenty of dining options nearby. The value for money was excellent, and the cleanliness and service far exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend this hostel for short trips and will definitely choose to stay here again next time I'm in Nanjing.

The ladder to the top bunk is wide, making it easy to climb. The bed comes with a new three-piece linen set. If you're not sure how to make the bed, you can ask the front desk staff for help – they're super, super nice! 🥰🥰 It saved a lot of hassle. Inside the bunk, there's a small table and a power strip. The room is visibly spacious, and each bed has its own vertical locker, which is very convenient to use! Also, the names of the rooms seem to be a special feature, and they all sound lovely.

This hostel is perfect for young people with all sorts of games available. The rooms are quite spacious, and you won't be disturbed by other guests. The environment is good, and the rooms are clean. The women's restroom is okay, but when showering, water flows out of the shower stall and into the rest of the bathroom, which is inconvenient for those using the toilet. This could definitely be improved. Other than that, everything was fine. When I booked the hostel, I read some reviews saying that there was a KTV nearby and that sleeping could be an issue, but I didn't experience any loud noise. It's very close to Xinjiekou Metro Station Exit 15, and below Exit 1, there are many bars and arcades. Mingwalam is also nearby. It's not too far from Nanjing Railway Station by metro. Most importantly, I'm very satisfied because I think it's hard to find such an affordable hostel in Xinjiekou.

I chose this hostel for my solo trip to Suzhou, and the overall experience completely exceeded my expectations! It's located right next to the South Gate of Lion Grove Garden, just a few minutes' walk to Pingjiang Road and Humble Administrator's Garden, making it incredibly convenient for exploring the ancient city. It's great for getting to all the attractions. The front desk service was gentle and thoughtful, patiently answering all my questions about sightseeing. The facilities are complete, with laundry and drying areas available. The female dorm beds offer excellent privacy, making me feel very secure as a solo traveler. It's incredibly good value for money, and I'll definitely choose this place again on my next trip to Suzhou! It's so convenient to go anywhere and really comfortable, the value for money is great. A day trip in Suzhou is wonderful. Yesterday there was a bit of sun, and then it immediately rained – truly the misty江南 (Jiangnan, a region known for its misty landscapes)!

The environment was better than I expected, with individual lights for each bed. The front desk staff were very helpful and carried my luggage for me. They provided hot drinking water, disposable cups, a hairdryer, and tissues. The location is excellent – the subway station is super close, just a short walk across the street. Right outside, there's a snack street and a mall, which is incredibly convenient. The only downside is having a Zhaoyiming and Haoxianglai downstairs, constantly tempting me to go in and buy snacks! :D

The room was spotless, and the auntie at the front desk was so kind and thoughtful. They even upgraded my room for free, and the location was easy to find. I hope this hostel keeps up the great work; I'll definitely be back next time.

The hostel's location is excellent, just across the street from the South Square of the train station. There are shopping malls and large supermarkets with many chain brands nearby, and public transportation is also quite convenient. A special commendation goes to the cleanliness of the room; the owner herself cleaned it. One suggestion: getting dressed after showering is a bit inconvenient, as you're worried about your pants touching the wet floor, and there's nowhere to lean against, so you have to stand on one leg. The shower water temperature is good, the flow is strong, and it's very comfortable; it's not cold at all. Overall, I had a great two-day stay!

Narrow Encounter Youth Hostel was by far the best accommodation during my trip to Suzhou! The overall experience was incredibly comfortable and completely changed my preconceived notions about hostels. The hostel itself was clean and fresh, with simple yet cozy decor. The common areas were tidy and well-ventilated, clearly well-maintained, with no unpleasant odors or clutter throughout my stay. The sleeping areas were very quiet; I was never disturbed, whether resting during the day or sleeping at night. Each bed was fully equipped, and the privacy was excellent – pulling the curtain created a private little space, offering a great sense of security. The location was a huge plus. Situated in the heart of Suzhou's Gusu business district, it's close to the subway, and you can walk to major attractions and snack streets. It made getting around and exploring very convenient, saving a lot of travel time. The facilities were also comprehensive. Free laundry and drying services, along with a leisure terrace, met all my essential travel and accommodation needs. The staff were gentle and patient, providing meticulous and thoughtful service, always ready to help promptly with any issues. They were truly sincere. The value for money was outstanding. The environment, hygiene, and service far exceeded other accommodations in the same price range. I highly recommend this place for student travelers, solo travelers, or anyone looking for a short-term stay. It's definitely my top choice for accommodation in Suzhou!

The overall environment of the room is very good, very clean, the bed is very soft and comfortable, and the equipment and facilities are perfect. I have been here more than once or twice, I am very satisfied, and I will come to 😚 in the future.
