Hostels di Shaanxi, China

While the building is easy to find, entrance is slightly confusing to find because there's two hotels inside the same building. Don't be shy to ask the people walking trough. The room was okay. There's free laundry machines you can use. Just use a translator to translate what settings on the machine, it's not hard to use at all. Clothes dry fast in dry xi'an air. Being located in the center it's a good spot to explore any side of the city. Also the lobby was English speaking.

This solo trip to Xi'an, based on past experiences, I opted for a hostel instead of a hotel or B&B, for a few reasons: ✅ **Safety Buff:** Compared to staying alone in a hotel, I prefer having female roommates 👭. Hostels provide this environment with open common areas and shared rules, making me feel much safer. ✅ **Convenience:** Cheap doesn't mean a rundown guesthouse. Large chain hostels usually have professional staff, communal restrooms, basic toiletries, and large common areas for activities. Their locations are also often very central. ✅ **Kindness and Friendship:** This is the soul of a hostel. Honestly, it's hard to find a place in society where you witness so much kindness as densely as in a hostel common room. With a shared destination, a book, a song, or a common interest, people can easily connect. There are no ulterior motives or desires, no prejudice or barriers (ideally → still, remember to protect yourself and set boundaries). This time, I stayed at 'Backpackers 10 Years Bell Tower Branch,' a nationwide chain. The off-season price was very affordable, and the six-bed dorm wasn't full. The girls in the dorm were all very considerate, quietly closing doors at night and not disturbing others when getting up early. The room was clean and odor-free.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A Perfect Hostel Experience Beyond Expectations! My trip to Xi'an was made incredibly special by this youth hostel located in Dapiyuan! It's one of the most thoughtful and convenient hostels I've ever stayed in. **📍Excellent Location:** It's right in the famous **Dapiyuan**! Step outside, and you're surrounded by authentic local eateries. Huimin Street and Sajin Bridge are also within walking distance. For a foodie like me who wants to experience the true flavors of Xi'an, this is pure heaven. **🚻Room Highlights:** What surprised me most was that a hostel room actually came with **two separate bathrooms**! This completely eliminated the morning rush for washing up and evening queues for showering, greatly enhancing privacy and convenience. Both bathrooms were also stocked with toilet paper, showing great attention to detail. **🌿Common Areas:** * The **rooftop garden terrace** is an absolute gem! Sitting on the terrace with friends in the evening, enjoying the breeze and the night view of Xi'an's old city, felt incredibly relaxing and comfortable. It's also a fantastic spot for photos. * The **ground floor reception area** is so well-equipped! Not only is it **staffed 24/7**, which put my mind at ease as a late arrival, but it also **sells snacks and bottled water**, solving any late-night cravings. A **fridge, washing machine, and dryer** are all available, which are absolute essentials for long-term travelers. Being able to wash and dry clothes anytime is incredibly convenient. **In Summary:** This hostel perfectly balances 'superior location,' 'comfortable accommodation experience,' and 'high level of living convenience.' Whether you're a solo backpacker or traveling with friends, it meets all your needs. Highly recommended! This will definitely be my top choice for my next visit to Xi'an! 👍

This hostel is just 100 meters from the Bell Tower, and right downstairs is a subway entrance, making it super convenient to get to the Grand Tang Dynasty Everbright City, the Drum Tower, and the Muslim Quarter. The room was exceptionally clean, and both the environment and service were superb. The hotel's facilities were also very complete. The common area was incredibly lively in the evenings, where you could play billiards, board games, and meet many interesting fellow travelers. There are also many popular spots nearby, and with Metro Line 2 right downstairs, it's incredibly easy to get anywhere.

Decent hostel. There is a big common area that is quite comfortable and the rooms have everything a backpacker would need: lockers, sockets and a private light next to your bed. The bathroom has multiple sinks and European standard toilets. The bathroom always looks a little yucky because it's old but it is actually surprisingly clean. There is a washing machine available that you can use yourself. But it takes a long time for your clothes to dry when you hang them in your room. The staff of the hotel was helpful. They let us check in early when we arrived half dead from a night train. It was a bit hard to find: It is on the second floor of the house on the corner. Just in case you're as confused as we were.

This is a great youth hostel, largely due to its peaceful environment. It's also very clean, and overall, I'd say it's excellent. The location is super convenient for transport, being just a short walk from the Stadium subway station. There are plenty of dining options nearby, and both the Shaanxi History Museum and Xi'an Museum are within easy reach. What's more, getting to Yongning Gate is pretty straightforward as well.

Nice and helpful host, kettle, free drinkable water, clean bathroom with soap, tooth brush and paste and toilet paper, lockers, no mosquitoes in the room, pleasant soft music during the day and excellent location. Georges lemon tree in common room.

Initially not as terrible as I had feared despite the low price. The layer of dust I saw when leaving my luggage early (in some corner because there was nobody to talk to) was gone when I checked in later. Place was easy to find (first image, take the elevator to the 5th floor and you're there) and in a very local area. Nice eateries and a small mobile phones and accessories mall turning left then right when leaving the building. Huimin Street and Drum and Bell Towers in walking distance. Free water dispenser and plenty of space in the hostel despite the lack of power outlets at the workspaces. But there comes the problem. The voltage at the power outlet seems elevated, my charger melted and almost caught fire although I used it everywhere else in Asia as well as for several weeks in China already. Other chargers I tried at this place also got extremely hot. They put me in a separate room to prevent another bad review on the potential production of spit, noise, dirt and sometimes even cigarette smoke in the dorms. One bathroom even had a seat toilet. Obviously plenty of smoking in the common area.

This hotel is very good location and clean, I really enjoy taking a rest at this hotel, really appreciate that it's very near to Tiyuchang metro station (Exit D). There are many restaurants and convenient stores nearby the building that is very convenient. The hotel staff and the hotel owner also give a warm welcome to me, thank you so much. Everything in the hotel is clean and convenient. I will come to use service from this hotel again next time. And this hotel is near to travel spots (small wild goose, Xian museum), it's very good location hotel.

This stay was one of the worst so far on my trip the cleanliness of the rooms was acceptable however the state of the bathroom was truly despicable. You are lucky you can't smell pictures. The showers and toilets were both really unhygienic and i wondered if they were cleaned once in the past month. Would not recommend
