Hostels in Hunan, China

Environment: The entrance isn't very noticeable, took me a while to find it, and it didn't really look like a hostel from the outside. Service: I was pleasantly surprised by how good the service was for a hostel! They even helped carry my bags to the room when it was raining and gave a very detailed explanation of the layout and facilities. Hygiene: The linens were all pre-fitted, just like in a hotel, and I saw the staff cleaning every room.

Overall it's very good. It's not far from the train station and next to the commercial street. The only drawback is that the location is hard to find. It is recommended to contact the boss in advance. The house has about three bedrooms and one living room. The living room is very big. The boss has prepared a lot of food. The bedroom is not small and can be put in. There are still 3 beds available. The quilt pattern is very unique. There is a balcony which is very popular. It is very convenient to dry clothes. Everyone is relatively quiet. The stay experience is good.

This is the best hostel I’ve ever stayed in! The host is so unbelievably friendly and kind, and the dinner was so good and I got to meet many travellers staying there too! It is my first time travelling solo and I met amazing people here. The hostel is within walking distance from the forest park’s east gate. There are a few restaurants less than a minute’s walk nearby. The hostel itself is very clean with sheets you can change yourself, as well as having a night light and foldable table. Toilets are shared among the same gender, shampoo and body wash is provided. There’s even a rooftop space for you to hangout at. I highly recommend staying here if you’re a solo traveller as you’ll feel so welcome here! P.S. you can book tickets through the host as it is discounted as well!

The luckiest thing about my trip to Changsha was choosing this hostel! The manager's warmth was like a winter sun. She not only helped me plan off-the-beaten-path activities around Wuyi Square but also thoughtfully reminded me to avoid the peak hours at popular tourist spots. The hostel is only a 5-minute walk from the subway station. The room had a clean and odor-free en-suite bathroom, and the bed was as soft as a cloud. The cleaning staff quietly cleaned it every day, completely avoiding the messy feeling often found in hostels. The most surprising thing was the atmosphere in the common area—everyone sat around watching movies in the evenings, and travelers from all over shared their stories. Even I, a socially awkward person, couldn't help but join in the conversation. Before leaving, I even made plans with a few friends to travel together again! If you come to Changsha, you must try this warm and welcoming hostel. It will make your trip more than just sightseeing; it will also bring you heartwarming encounters.

I didn’t expect hotel bookings to be so popular during the Spring Festival holiday. We arrived at Mugen Youth Hostel at around 10 pm on the third day of the Chinese New Year. Since we were traveling as a family, the male and female combination did not quite meet the requirements of the youth hostel. However, the owner was careful and enthusiastic in contacting a room for us. Unfortunately, the surrounding area was too crowded that night. In the end, he still found a way to make room for us, solving the big problem of accommodation. I give a big thumbs up to that group of enthusiastic young people 👍 Moreover, the accommodation and sanitary environment of the hostel are really quite good, the price is affordable, and the room is clean and tidy. Even a middle-aged aunt like me was surprised. The rooms are divided into male and female rooms, and they are not mixed. A room usually has six beds, two bathrooms, spacious space, and private storage space. There are public entertainment facilities outside, including a book bar, games, billiards, etc. It is really suitable for young backpackers.

The hospitality and location are perfect! Close to the park. Staff are warm and friendly, serve complimentary tea, sell discounted park tickets, provide maps, and give advice on how to plan your forest park visit. The lounge lobby area is spacious and charmin. Overall a chill relaxed hostel where it’s easy to make friends. There's also a cute dog and cat, though I felt sad seeing the cat leashed in a corner all day :/ In the hostel dorm room, facilities are typical - kinda worn down. The bed is big, although one toilet had a persistent urine smell, my duvet had stains, bunk bed handle was loose on one side and the plug next to my bed didn't work. The air didn't feel very fresh either, maybe from the dust accumulation or the toilet smell. That said, the hospitality really made up for what was lacking.

Very clean. I feeled well in this house. The owner is a helpful lady. She send me all information to my mobile that I needed. From how to come via bus to the hostel to what sights to see best in 2 days. The location ist perfekt for tian mountain, but If you want to see the park, it is a bit far away, 50 min, 13 Yuan by Bus, didi about 50-60 Yuan each way. Facilties hostel standard, good value.

I had a very comfortable stay. The owner was super nice, and the environment was beautiful and clean. The landlady cleaned every day! It's really close to the subway station, just 100m from Huangxing Square. There are plenty of options for food, drinks, and entertainment nearby. Guys, I've even seen this place half an hour after checking out.

It is very close to the International Finance Center and Taiping Old Street. It is within walking distance to all Internet celebrity check-in points. It is very convenient to eat downstairs. The tea is really good and delicious. This is definitely a five-star review! The owner always pays attention to public health and will clean in time.” Service: You can't find a more considerate youth hostel. If needed, they will even help put the sheets and quilts on! Free toothbrushes and toothpaste, slippers, toilet paper, and warm water from a drinking fountain are also provided. Shampoo and shower gel are also provided. Facilities: The small living room actually has a projector to watch movies: each room has a bathroom, no smell, and is very clean. The six-person room I stayed in is spacious and the air conditioner is open all day. It's quiet at night and has a good sleep. Each bed has a small locker and a microwave for use. The washing machine is 2 yuan a time. The overall experience is great. This time I come to Changsha. I will also ”go home” and wait for the wind to come (I live there and give my honest review).

Host is a super nice guy and very helpful. He helps you book your tickets as well as with communication and he has many good tips for you. Usually people hang downstairs, there are also three cute cats. Usually people order food and have dinner together. You will easily meet fellow travelers here. The place is otherwise very basic and could need repairs and more frequent cleanups. But that is not the focus here. The hostel is also close to the starting point to Tianmen mountain. PS: The package for the avatar mountains has hiked to 450 RMB including cablecars and elevator (you can use the ticket on 4 consecutive days). 12 RMB to take the bus to its south gate. You need two days to finish the avatar mountains. Then one more day for Tianmen mountain. Another day for the canyon, if you want.
