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.

Traveling solo, I felt like staying in a hostel was a great deal! The rooms here were clean, and it's super close to so many attractions. I could walk to Pozi Street in about five or six minutes to check it out, or head to the Mixue Changsha flagship store for some goodies. The weather in Changsha was lovely; it rained on my first day, but the next two days weren't humid at all. The food was also affordable. The beef tripe noodles at the old Changsha noodle shop downstairs were so delicious – I had them two days in a row, they were amazing! Since it was crowded during the May Day holiday, I just ordered takeout, haha. The price was super student-friendly too! 😘😘 For anyone visiting during public holidays, I recommend hitting up popular spots and night markets before 10 AM or in the early morning. It's much cooler then, and there are fewer people. Even though there are still plenty of people in Changsha in the early morning, it's not nearly as crowded. I had a fantastic time! 😚

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!

Very nice little place. Owners are friendly and helpful. There is a common area and good wifi, many floors (8+) and many different rooms. Free laundry on the balcony and drinking water, microwave and hot water available, with a food steamer as well. The location is easy to find, close to the river and the main area for the night show. Although the humidity is insane in this little town, this hostel tries to fight it with these machines that dehumidify the air. So in the dorms you will see a bit of mould, but I think all in all that can't be avoided in a humid town like this. Overal it is a nice little stay, the only improvement would be for the cleaning to be immaculate. Recommend 100% if you are a low budget backpacker!

The hotel is quite close to Wulingyuan Bus Station, about a 5-minute walk. There are breakfast shops and convenience stores right outside, so the location is pretty convenient. The room has two bathrooms and provides disposable toothbrushes and bath towels. There's also a free washing machine on the sixth floor. The room was a bit damp, and the doors were a bit noisy when opening and closing, but the curtains were excellent at blocking out light.

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.

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.

I saw this hostel reviewed on Xiaohongshu and booked two nights based on the great photos on their profile. The location is excellent, nestled in an alley right opposite Yuelu Mountain. It's a lovely, quiet spot. The bed was big and very soft, and the dorms are separated by gender. The bathroom and toilet are combined, and the shower pressure is fantastic. They have a cute poodle, and I also saw a black cat in the lobby and a Siamese cat on the rooftop where I was drying my clothes. Overall, I was really happy, so I extended my stay by another night! Just two minor points: the lighting in the glass room on the first floor is quite harsh, making it impossible to see my face when putting on makeup. Also, the Wi-Fi in my third-floor room was incredibly slow; I had to go downstairs to work on my tablet. Hope they can improve that!

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.

Recommended recommendation! The price is very high, the environment is quiet, go out to the left hand side of the food street, to the right hand side is a culvert, the attraction is unique and good to take pictures. The location is really good!
