Mingtown Suzhou Youth Hostel Reviews

A very old fashioned house which is great! The rooms were beautiful, however the bathroom was very old, cold, no light, drainage blocked which flooded the whole bathroom, small shower head and curtains which is not higienic at all. The building is very old and doors and windows are drafty which are not convenient in December. Air conditioner set up on 30 and still cold in the room. Beautiful tea set up 🤗

Good: The location is good. Price is very competitive. You may find some interesting roommates. Bad: Mosquitoes, especially annoying on the night when I stayed in the ground floor. Bathrooms are shared, hence don’t expect too much cleanliness. Verdict: if you’re tight on budget or don’t mind mosquitoes, you can go for it!

Great traditional style hostel in an old building in the main street of old Suzhou, location and vibe are perfect. Wooden floors and forniture and indoor garden. I spent 5 nights here and It was a lovely and relaxing stay. The staff is useful and nice, the receptionist even helped me to bring my heavy luggage upstairs. Only small cons: no soap in the bathrooms/showers and no drinkable water machine (there are water fountains on the street right outside so not a big deal).

Great location, close to some of the most famous gardens and shopping streets. The staff was friendly and helpful

Location is excellent. The building is nice even if not soundproof at all. Overall, good quality price ratio. I had a double room.

Good hotel for traditional vibes. I totally recommand it for everyone.

the location is amazing and the hostel is just such a stunning style of architecture. unfortunately it was super hard to find as the former entrance is now a suzhou museum gift shop. you gotta go to the left of it into the small alley and turn right into the costume shop. that's where the new entrance is located. unfortunatelly the bathroom next to my room wasn't cleaned at all for the duration of my stay. it looked like absolute hell with old bandaids, feathers, fake lashes, double eyelid strips und an exploded toothpaste laying around. the cleaning staff took great care of keeping the floors and rooms clean so i really don't get it....

Nice place in here eady to find some eat a lot of location tp take a photo

It was hard to find, the photos on the front are different from where it is because it moved recently. They were working on the place, construction and arranging, it should look better in time.

The room and bath room is very small. The staff cannot speak English. But the location is in famous place.

They were so friendly and super helpful. They have a good command of English. Bathroom was clean, they have a hairdryer ready. Laundry services are up to standard. It was honestly cool.

Really good and convenient place to live. Quiet and comfortable

Good location, far from subway 1km. Booking in Trip.com is cheaper than booking at hostel

Location just off the main tourist canal street is busy but a good place to explore from. The hostel itself is in a beautiful old building, and despite not being well soundproofed between the rooms we didn't have any problems.
