Hostels in Anhui, China

"This is a rare, pure hostel experience in China, with a charming retro and artistic decor. The lobby has a fantastic vibe, perfect for solo travelers to meet fellow adventurers. For just a few tens of yuan, the bedding is fresh for every guest and very clean, and the rooms smell lovely. The four-person dorm with its en-suite bathroom offers enough privacy. The value for money is hands down the best right at the entrance to the scenic area. Both the manager and the front desk staff are very welcoming and happy to answer any questions, making for an absolutely superb experience. The owner also provides free hiking poles, umbrellas, and daily essentials, which is just fantastic! And their dog is adorable too!"

"Not bad, very convenient, will be considered. The location is super convenient, it is very convenient to travel by taxi and bus! The youth travel environment is clean and tidy, the public area is spacious and comfortable, and the rest and chat are suitable. The bedding is changed for each guest, the privacy is good, and the cabinet space is sufficient. The boss is warm and caring, and will answer questions patiently. The atmosphere of the friends who live with us is very good, quiet and not noisy. Very good value for money, the first choice for traveling alone, will choose here next time, highly recommended!"

"I stayed in Hongcun for two nights, and this hostel was the most gentle haven amidst the misty rain. The plum rain season washed every leaf until it glistened, and the air was filled with the fresh scent of earth and grass. I stayed in a wooden cabin, and the rain pattered on the eaves all night, a simple white noise from nature. Falling asleep to the sound of rain felt like returning to childhood, a long-lost tranquility. In the evening, the owner played and sang folk songs for us on the ukulele, their melodies blending into the sound of the rain. Outside, a fine drizzle wove through the air; inside, the lights were dim and warm. I held a cup of hot milk tea in my hands (it was made with real milk, rich and sweet, not a perfunctory powder mix – truly delicious 😋). A small cat sat under the eaves listening to the rain, while I worked on crafts, the rustle of needle and thread accompanying the lingering music. Rain, hot milk tea, folk songs, a little cat, and handmade crafts – these beautiful words layered together unexpectedly created a nearly luxurious stretch of time. Even luckier, I met several pure-hearted girls here. The plum rain didn't trap us; instead, it brought us together. We chatted, shared stories, and exchanged smiles. Though we were strangers meeting by chance, we shared a brief and wonderful time. Scenery tends to fade, and photos will yellow, but those moments filled with warmth will not disappear. They settle deep in our memories, resurfacing suddenly on a weary evening in the future, reminding you: this world is worth repeatedly venturing into. Travel isn't about escaping life, but about making life broader. To encounter mountains, rivers, and seas; to meet gentle people; to meet the light and authentic self hidden by daily routines. Resting by the water, listening to the misty rain, Dreaming of Huizhou."

"This hostel is fantastic! The Kunlun Hostels in Huangshan consistently offer high standards in terms of service and facilities. I've stayed at three of them so far and absolutely love them; they all have a great hostel vibe. The owner even organizes get-togethers for guests to chat and socialize. This particular hostel in Xidi also has a small pub where you can enjoy drinks and listen to music."

"Location is good, walking distance to old town and bus station, the bed is spacious but could be more comfortable. I needed to wait about 15 minutes at the empty reception until checking in, and I had to be the one to ”make a move” and say I wanted to check in when someone arrived there, otherwise I would be just standing there at the reception with my backpack and no one would approach me or say anything. They give bottled water daily, though"

"We were all very satisfied with the Jixi International Youth Hostel where we stayed this time. The room is clean and spacious, and the reception area is comfortable and elegant. Although there is no elevator, the staircase is spacious. The hostel is across the road from the high-speed rail station, and the passenger transport hub is right next to the high-speed rail station. It is very convenient to take the bus to attractions such as the Huihang Ancient Road. We booked three nights, which was non-cancellable, but due to the typhoon, we checked out a day early. The hostel and Ctrip worked together to help us get it done (including a refund) in a few minutes. I will stay in this hostel again when I go to Jixi in the future."

"Meet a fairy shopkeeper, versatile, will make coffee, play guitar, play piano singing, portrait pull flowers, love to wear Hanfu, will be easy to feng shui, personality detached. On rainy days, listening to the rain in the store in a daze, the passers-by are busy, do not disturb each other, very borderline, like this free, relaxed and pleasant atmosphere."

"If you're visiting Huangshan and looking for a hostel, this is a great choice. You can see Huangshan Mountain from the backyard. Head out the door, and a short walk straight ahead will take you to the South Gate of Huangshan and the Xiaoyaoyou transfer station, where you can queue directly for the buses to Yuping or Yunguxi Cableways. They also have printed Huangshan maps available. The hostess is lovely and provides excellent service. You can also arrange car rides through her. I stayed here for two nights and met a British guy and an Italian girl. It was a joy to use my broken English to tell them about ways to explore Huangshan and answer their questions."

"Very good, the environment is clean and tidy, the receptionist is also very good, very polite"

"This youth travel really exceeded expectations! The atmosphere is superb, just at the entrance of the ancient village, it is very close, the boss is particularly warm and caring, as thoughtful as a friend. The public area is clean and tidy, the layout is warm and stylish, the beds are comfortable, the sound insulation and hygiene are very good. The guests are very friendly and easy to meet new friends. Convenient location, convenient travel, super cost-effective. Staying here is safe and relaxed, you can feel the intention everywhere, it is highly recommended to friends who travel alone or with friends, and will choose here next time!"
