Hostels in Fujian, China

Two months later, while browsing Ctrip, I suddenly realized I hadn't written my January review, so I'm adding it here. The room was clean and tidy. Dongshan Island is very cold in January, and the room even provided thick blankets. The people at Hai Le Xin are incredibly kind. My roommates from Xinjiang and Chengdu, along with Da Huang and Xiao Hui, went to see the sunrise. A young man even took me to Aojiao on his electric scooter. The owner is also incredibly kind. I want to shout out to the owner! The first night, I couldn't ride an electric scooter, so he lent me his bicycle. When the bicycle broke down halfway, he came to rescue me on his motorcycle and recommended good restaurants along the way. The next day, my electric scooter ran out of power at Aojiao, and he brought me batteries. Later, he took me to other attractions, and when I was leaving, he even took me to the nearby bus stop. I originally expected to spend the New Year's holiday alone and lonely, but my experience here made me feel incredibly pampered. The sea breeze on Dongshan Island in January is icy, but the people at Hai Le Xin are warm and welcoming. When will my next holiday come? I'll definitely come back to Hai Le Xin! 🥰🥰🥰

This is my favourite city in my trip of 6 cities. This is located inside Yuanhe 1916 Creative Park. It's a very nice place with great location, near to most major attractions. I enjoyed my stay greatly because the amenities was great, it's relatively clean, but most importantly the staffs are helpful without being intrusive. The dorm room comes with attached bathroom, which is cleaned daily. I love the vibe of this hostel even though it's the lull season, not crowded. I almost wanted to extend my stay.

The hostel is large and odor-free. The front desk staff are warm and thoughtful, providing mineral water and slippers upon check-in. The facilities are all-inclusive; just a tip, you might want to bring your own hangers as they can sometimes run short. The beds are spacious with extra space at the foot to place belongings. The bathroom is bright and clean. Excellent!

Highly recommended hostel! It's clean and cozy, and I met some really interesting travelers there. It's more than just a place to stay; it's a starting point for discovering and exploring Xiamen. I might even come back again!

Traveling solo to Fuzhou, and it was my first time staying in a hostel. I stayed here for two days and had a great experience! 😄 The dorm was very clean, and the environment was cozy and comfortable. Doing laundry and using the washrooms was super convenient. By chance, it was almost Chinese New Year, and the landlady personally cooked dumplings for the guests. Before I left, she even packed breakfast for me. This is a truly excellent hostel.

The people who run the place are super lovely and helpful. When I arrived I was welcomed right away with tea and later some snacks. And I got a detailed description of how to get to the nature park, complete with buses and everything, customized to the length of my stay. Even if I can't speak Chinese, the people were super nice and always tried to help. My room was comfy, usually quiet and clean. I had a nice view towards the pond area and while the hostel is located a bit further from the City center, you can go there super quick by taking the bus, where the station is just a short walk from the hostel. The bathroom however was not super clean, but it worked for me and I really enjoyed my stay and even extanded it by two nights. Thank you so much for the great experience! :)

This was my first time staying in a hostel, and overall it was great. Of course, you meet some rather…peculiar people. The owner of the shoes was even more difficult and 'flavorful' than her shoes. Let's call her – The Upstairs Bunk Double-Standard Dorm Monitor, and here's the story: “I arrived at the hostel a little after 11 PM. After my upstairs bunkmate and I both finished showering, we returned to our respective beds. I immediately started organizing the contents of my backpack, which were simple: clothes and disposable toiletries. The whole process took less than five minutes, but during this time, my bunkmate started making various impatient noises, expressing her displeasure with ‘you’re too loud’ and other small actions and sounds. I immediately put down what I was doing and lay down. Even then, she continued to toss and turn and grumble from above. To be honest, the car noises from outside the window and other people showering in the bathroom were much louder than any sound I made. Even after midnight, someone in the room made a phone call with their ringer on, and I didn't see her being so 'righteous' then (though I can't rule out the possibility that she was the one making the noise, as I really couldn't tell the difference). What's even funnier is that after she 'reminded' me, she herself was watching videos and laughing… Even funnier than her herself is that the Upstairs Bunk Double-Standard Dorm Monitor started her noisy ruckus the next morning around 6 AM. Her entire morning routine lasted twenty minutes, and the scene could be described as incredibly lively. Perhaps the Upstairs Bunk Double-Standard Dorm Monitor had a more important future to rush to, so she couldn't bother with her own double standards 🥹

There are many single-family villa hotels on Gulangyu Island, each with its own courtyard, which is very cozy. There's a teahouse and a swing in the courtyard, which the children love. The house is only two or three stories high and there's no elevator, but the owner will help with luggage. However, there's no ferry service, so you'll need to get to the hotel yourself. Fortunately, this hotel is close to Sanqiutian Pier, only a few minutes away. It's located behind the Athena Bar, and finding it can be difficult for a first-time visitor. I spent a while searching, but one side of the road was blocked and the door was locked, so I had to walk through the bar. The room was reasonably priced, and it had a window overlooking another villa hotel. While you can't see the sea or hear the piano, you can still hear the bar's resident singers at night. The tatami mats are against the wall, making it comfortable for children to sleep on. Other amenities are quite complete and clean. There's a public washing machine, so you can wash clothes there. The owner also provides a drying rack for hanging clothes in the courtyard on sunny days or in the room if it rains. The boss is pretty good, very kind and responsive.

Nice place with a very responding owner, never had to wait more than a minute to get a reply on WeChat. The place is hard to find but if you contact the owner on WeChat, he'll send you detailed instructions on how to find the place. The location is good, near a metro station and not far from the old French quarters. Many options for food just downstairs.

The owner take me to the another places at 13th floor (among 500 meters near the old place). In here very amazing, you can see the big square downside and firework. Have a lot of restaurant and supermarket around. Room is big, no smell, have hair dryer and boiling water. From airport, go by DiDi taxi ~20¥
