Hostels in Guangdong, China

I stayed for three nights in a 12-person dorm, on a lower bunk. The space was more spacious than I expected, and with my luggage in the common area, it was super convenient to pack or get clothes. Everyone was very considerate, quietening down automatically at night, so I slept soundly. The hygiene was indeed good, with the cleaning staff tidying up every day. When I first arrived, someone gave me a quick tour, showing me where the washrooms were, how to use the hot water, and how to use the key card for entry – very friendly for first-time hostel dwellers. The location is also convenient, just a few minutes' walk from Changgang Station, and the neighborhood is very quiet. It offers great value for money, with lots of delicious food nearby and easy access to delivery services. I'd definitely recommend it to friends.

Traveling solo on a budget in Guangzhou, this place was absolutely perfect. With both Line 10 and Zhongda Metro Station nearby, it was just a few stops to attractions like the Dafo Temple and Canton Tower. I spent my days exploring Wanda Plaza in Haizhu and my evenings enjoying the breeze and night views along Yanjiang Road. Having a Yonghui Supermarket right next door made it super convenient to grab instant noodles or fruit. The hostel beds have curtains, creating a cozy little private space, and the overall environment is great. The value for money is truly unbeatable!

The location is super convenient, with a subway station just a 5-minute walk away. Both the rooms and common areas are very clean! To enter the single room section, you need to use your card to pass through two doors, which makes it feel incredibly safe for solo travelers!! Personally, I found the air conditioning in the room a bit weak, and it could get a little warm at night, but that's just my preference!

I am deeply amazed on how comfy and good this hostel is. Located in Nantou Anicent town, so close to the entrance yet surrounded with unlimited shops, foods, museums, a bakery next door serving really unique cream bread, supporting local businesses. Upon stepping into my dorm room, I was greeted with a college like white blue vibe, decorated with art works from a girl, I love how it has its personal touch separating it from other hostel brands. It's one of a kind that is hard to find elsewhere. My favourite is the bed. It felt like home, so cozy yet so warm, blanket felt fleecy yet not too warm or cold. The pillow was chef kissed that I planned to buy when I get home, it had the shape of where the head should be laid inwards, while supporting the neck. The bed is so comfy firm yet not super soft and not too hard like brick. There is a ”stubborn” cabinet, a shelf to put your stuff on, 2 option of light: 1 to brighten the bed up and a nice warm night light. There is space for luggage under the bed, lockers comes with a lock and key which is such a good idea, so it's for sure a very safe locker. The metal net near the door is perfect for drying clothes with many hangers to use. They also gives a voucher sheet to use to support the local business nearby, can treat yourself with a hair cut or a massage. Bathroom. Sink area is so cute, shower room and toilet is together, feels a bit tight but still good. Near reception, you have free amenities to use. I wasn't very social enough so I didn't enter the other areas that has dining, laundry and the bar. Would recommend this place to other people and coming back when in Shenzhen.

The environment is beautiful, with an endless expanse of blue ocean right outside the window. The air is so fresh, and it really lifts your spirits! The room was clean, tidy, and cozy. Dining was convenient. After dinner, I hit the hotel gym, worked up a good sweat, and then came back to the room for a refreshing shower before falling into a deep, beautiful sleep!

The hotel is about a ten-minute walk from the subway, which is quite convenient, and there are many delivery options nearby. First, I knew before booking that there were no gender restrictions for check-in, but I wasn't aware that rooms weren't separated by gender. I'm not sure how they allocate rooms, but personally, I felt uncomfortable seeing men in the hallways. Second, although there's an en-suite bathroom, the space is very small. Third, the facilities felt a bit dated; the curtains and bed curtains were very thin and let in a lot of light, and the window handle was broken, so the window couldn't be closed completely. Finally, and this isn't specific to this hostel, I was woken up several nights by roommates checking in late, which is a common issue in hostels.

The location is great, just a 7-8 minute walk from subway exit F. It's located within a residential complex, with the front desk and accommodations in separate buildings. The accommodation itself seems to be in a former residential building. This hostel offers all the usual amenities, including a rooftop and kitchen. The room was decent, generally clean and tidy, though that can depend on your roommates. The shower and bathroom facilities were average but mostly clean (again, depending on roommates). The hallway even had some lantern decorations, adding a touch of Chinese flair. The air conditioning in the room was excellent; with the thick duvet, I had a wonderfully sound sleep. Perhaps it's off-season, as I didn't see many other guests during my stay, and the entire floor was very quiet. There's a 20 RMB deposit for the dorm room key card, which you need to swipe to enter the building unit and again to enter the room. The key card also activates the electricity. Check-in was smooth, and the staff were polite. I only stayed one night, but I'd consider coming back if I'm in the area!

As a solo traveler, I blindly booked the Amic Amy Girls' Hostel in Sea World, and it absolutely blew me away! This is hands down the best budget accommodation I've ever experienced. The location is incredibly convenient. The Shuikou subway station is just a few steps away, and it's a 10-minute walk to the Sea World commercial district, making exploring and dining super easy. The entire building is exclusively for women, with double-swipe card access for the main door and individual beds, and doors are locked at night, so solo female travelers feel incredibly safe. I was particularly impressed with the cleanliness! Housekeeping regularly cleans the entire place, and there's absolutely no odor. Each bed has a thick blackout curtain, a bedside night light, multi-port chargers, and a huge under-bed storage locker. Once you're inside the curtain, it's your own private little nook. The bathrooms are dry-wet separated, and the shower rooms even have air conditioning, so no waiting in line. The separate vanity area has a huge mirror, perfect for photos and makeup, plus there's a washer and dryer, which means packing so much less for short trips! The common areas are decorated in a gentle and calming style, with fresh flowers everywhere. It's great for both quiet work and chatting with fellow travelers. The other guests were all considerate, keeping quiet late at night. The front desk staff were gentle and attentive, and the check-in explanation was incredibly patient. To find such a thoughtful and comfortable female-only hostel at this price point is amazing. Students and solo female travelers, don't hesitate to book this place. I'll definitely be staying here again next time I'm in Shekou!

The lighting was nice, just a bit dim. It was slightly less impressive than another place I stayed, but still good overall, offering great value for money. The bed wasn't very sturdy, and the cabinet was broken, so they moved me to a different bed. My roommate was friendly.

Stayed for a few days, it was very comfortable. My roommates were also very considerate. The photos are accurate; the landlord sent them to me directly, but they truly reflect the actual place. It's in the city center, and for this price and environment, it's much better than most hostels in Guangzhou. They provide disposable toothbrushes, shampoo, and body wash, and there are no restrictions on using the air conditioning. It's really great! 🌹🌹
