Hostels di Qinghai, China

Xining is a fantastic, vibrant city, and my biggest regret is not staying longer; it deserves way more time than just a quick transit stop thanks to its incredible food scene, night markets, and laid-back vibe. During my visit, I stayed at LETE Hostel, which serves as a solid, character-rich base for exploring the region. The top-floor communal space has real history and soul, beautifully flooded with sunlight, packed with green plants, a massive library, and even three cute resident birds. The ladies at the front desk are incredibly kind-hearted and welcoming, always doing their best to help out. Location-wise, it’s perfect - super convenient for the night markets, local food stalls, and bus stops, plus they offer safe bike storage for cyclists. For the price of a private room, the value and hospitality here are unbeatable, and I would absolutely stay again - and next time, I’ll be giving Xining the full week it deserves.

The vibe here is great! The guys at the front desk are super friendly and helpful; they go out of their way to meet guests' requests. They also share lots of tips on food and travel, showing how much effort they put into running this hostel. I had a bit of altitude sickness when I first arrived in Xining, but propping up my pillow and leaving a small gap in the window and the bed curtain helped a lot. I'll definitely book here again next time I visit.

Everything was great except the room had essentially no ventilation or air-conditioning so it was very hard to fall asleep however as I got cooler it was a lot easier but that is the only negative. Everything else about this hotel was great.

The location is fantastic, right near Xining Railway Station, making travel super convenient. Even though it's a hostel, the cleanliness is top-notch, and the bedding is spotless. There are plenty of great food options nearby, and the recommendations from the owner were excellent! The owner is really enthusiastic and provided very detailed local tips. For this price in this area, the value for money is unbeatable, perfect for backpackers and students. I'll definitely come back next time!

Xianchu was very comfortable. Ancient city isn’t too far away and a nice riverside to run by. The people are very friendly, and other hostels are clustered in the same street so it’s easy to meet people Owner gave me tour of the city and was willing to hang out with guests

The hostel room was generally clean and tidy. The owner was friendly and enthusiastic. Everything from restaurants and supermarkets to shopping and pharmacies is readily available nearby, which was very convenient for getting around. Highly recommended!

This was my first time staying in a youth hostel and it was a great experience. There are three of us. When we booked the room, we basically looked at a four-person room, but the store was very attentive and reserved a room for us specifically for three people. The store owner is also very nice. Especially that little sister. Love it, love it! ! ! !

The rooms in this hotel are generally good, the decoration style is simple and generous, the facilities are complete, and the bedding is very comfortable. 👍

Very cost-effective, clean and tidy, and the owner is enthusiastic in service and very satisfied with a stay.
