The 10 best Hostels hotel in Yangshuo County, China

May 12, 2023 Moriah Teneyck

Yangshuo offers breathtakingly beautiful scenery, particularly along the hill-lined Li River, which you can tour by cruise boat or, if you’re feeling primitive, by bamboo raft. Streets in Yangshuo are kept in their original style, preserving the layout of the ancient city. Savory local specialties like beer fish and shatian shaddocks are served on West Street, one of the town's liveliest thoroughfares. Kids will adore the local butterfly cave.

Yangshuo Sudder Street Guesthouse

Yangshuo sudder street guesthouse is run by a Chinese husband-Japanese wife couple Dongdong and Axiang. They met each other in Sudder street, a famous place for international backpackers in Kolkata of India. How many strangers are passing by when we are traveling? We believe none of the meeting is coincidental, seizing the chance to know a stranger might totally change your life. “Treasure every encounter, for it will never recur.” We hope our guesthouse can be like Sudder street: Travelers encounter each other, share stories, have unforgettable memories on the way.

Excellent service, excellent rooms.

English-speaking staff of very high level. They offer plenty of help and information with regards to finding things to do and will book things for you including the travel to various things. The room itself was a bit cold, even with the heating but that's more a result of the time of year/weather plus the style of the building (huge windows for the view). Ultimately the value of the price is great. You can't go wrong here. The staff in particular are excellent and for that alone I'd give 5 stars. Thank you for your help!

Fantastic option to stay close to yet far from Yangshuo madmess

Eden YHA is located 6KM outside yangshuo in Chaolong village. The location can be a bit forbidding to start but once you get get hang of calling didi cabs, and dont mind shelling out that extra 30yuan per day on taxi rides, it's a great location. Chaolong and surrounding areas, unlike yangshuo are still quiet. Go farther down that road away from yangshuo and you are some of th prettiest landscapes in that area. The hostel itself is great, rooms were large and equipped with ac, tv, hair dryer, water kettle etc. Bathrooms were very tastefully done and super clean. The bar at the hostel lobby is one of th best stocked you will see anywhere. And a pool table if that interests you. You can get bikes for free or electric bikes at 50/day to roam around the countryside. Just two points to note, no lift so if you getting the top rooms with heavy luggage, think again. Also, the local govt has decided that no cars without permit would be allowed inside the barrier to the yulong area between 8am and 6pm. Which means if you arrive between those hours, in a normal taxi you need to get off at the barrier and then take a 20/person golf cart ride to the hostel. The barrier is 4km from yangshuo and 2km from eden yha.

Xingping This Old Place Int'l Youth Hostel

Why stay in the city.... when the riverside is SO AMAZING!Just 27 km outside of touristhotspot Yangshuo you will find the 'This Old Place Int’l Youth Hostel', a very unique youth hostel. We live in a small town named Xingping which has 1740 years old. It has the most beautiful riverview of the whole li-river erea. For this reason the riverside of Xingping is printed on the picture of the back the Chinese 20 yuan note. Our hostel is just located 50 meters away from Xingping port. So from some rooms’ balcony you may see the amazing riverview just the picture on the back the Chinese 20 yuan note.

After having lunch at Sesame cafe, I walked to the second building of the hostel two doors away. It was recently renovated and looks lovely for a stay here. The lunch at Sesame cafe was delicious. We could top up our water bottle with hot or cold water here. There are regular bus every 15 mins to Yangshou. Journey is about 45 mins.

Xiaobali Boutique Hotel

Gorgeous interior and comfort on a small budget

Reviewed By TravellingApe

XiaoBaLi (literally “Little Bali”) is one of three branches of the “Xiao Qing Mai” (“Little Chiangmai”) brand of hotels in Yangshuo, managed by an amiable local family. I think the older pictures posted in TA belong to a hotel under a different management previously – the address is the same but the hotel owners must have been changed and it has been completely revamped since. Location : In a quiet lane about 5 minutes’ walk from the river bank and about 10 minutes’ walk to West street. There are several other quaint-looking boutique style hotels along this lane (no convenience shops or restaurants on this stretch of the road) and the front of the hotel faces lots of greenery. I love the location for its proximity to the river and also the commercial West street without the noise and crowds. One end of the lane (nearer to the river) only becomes busy around 12.30 pm to 1.30 pm as it is close to the land transport pickup point for boat tours that arrive from Guilin. If you arrive at the Yangshuo Southern bus station, it will cost about 10 RMB by “motorbike taxi” to the hotel (10 minutes’ ride). Didn’t see any taxis at the bus station but I guess the hotel might be able to help arrange for your taxi or local car transport . Room : Various room types from tiny to family rooms. The ones with balcony (rather small) are the best as some of the rooms with windows look right into walls of nearby buildings! The entire hotel adopts a Thai/Balinese design style so you see a lot of teak wood furniture and Southeast Asian ethnic fabrics being used in the furnishings. All are done in a beautiful and tasteful style and you might forget that you are in China momentarily.….. well, a nice change if you’ve been in China for quite some time already. Room is very comfortable and though quite small (I booked a mini double with balcony, located on level 3), it has all the standard amenities within (kettle, mugs, bottled water, hairdryer, toiletries, good quality towels etc.). Take note that the large toilet/shower-room does not have a door separating it from the rest of the room – only a linen curtain to protect your modesty : ) Overall : The family members are friendly and helpful and the small lobby is a nice pleasant place to hand around with a drink (juices, coffee etc are sold there). I enjoyed my stay thoroughly and thought this is a really good deal – great environment, beautiful interior and pleasant staff, all on a modest budget. Highly recommended.

I booked this hostel because it had a high rating on HostelWorld. I’m so glad I did! The owners were absolutely wonderful and super helpful. They spoke English nd helped me plan my activities and gave me recommendations. The hostel is super clean. They have lockers for your stuff in each room. If our forget your own lock they have some to rent. Each room had 4 pairs of shower shoes if it don’t bring your own. The bathrooms have western toilets, racks, shampoo, body wash, and hand soap. The beds were fairly comfortable and each have their own privacy drapes. There is a rooftop with seats and tables that has a pretty great view of the area. If I come back to Yangshuo I will definitely stay here again! It is literally in an alley next to other hostels. Can be difficult to find.

Flowers International Youth Hostel

Worth persisting at the Flowers

Reviewed By ge0ffsmith

This was a rather strange experience, but satisfying in the end. I had a lot of difficulty finding the place, as the location of the bus station has changed since the directions on the website were produced. After finally finding it, the old guy at reception did not speak a word of English (in spite of the ‘international’ in the title) and put me on the phone to a younger woman (maybe his daughter?) who confirmed in very basic English that they had not record of my reservation. However, the place was virtually empty, so I had no trouble finding a bed - in fact the only occupied bed in a large six bed dorm. There were six floors of dorms and double rooms, and all appeared to be free. And the price was an amazingly cheap Y25 per night. After initial confusion I began to like the place. It has a magnificent hardwood timber and stone staircase which would not look out of place in a royal palace. And the location is great for looking around the town.
