Located in Hefang Pedestrian Street, the centre of Song Dynasty, Ho Fang International Youth Hostel is a traditional Chinese restored building with grey stone walls and black tiles of rooftop. It offers both dormitory and private rooms with free WiFi and an international collection of books.

- Wonderful staff who tries to help you with any need you may have. One staff member (among other assistance he gave me) extensively helped me sort my train ticket. Many thanks again to him !!! - Simply the best location you can have in Hangzhou: in the old city, close to the metro and famous shopping street ; but in a very quiet area. - Everything was clean and convenient.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    One of my cheapest stays in China, but the place still looked nice and is clean. There are curtains for each bed in the bunk rooms and a towel is provided. A/C. Direct via subway from Hangzhou East train station.
