Dayin International Youth Hostel(East Nanjing Road & The Bund)
4.7/57745 Reviews
People's Square
A great place to stay for your first time in China if you're arriving in to Shanghai. Very convenient on Line 2 from PVG airport, then a short walk from People's Square metro station. It's basically just off of the beginning of East Nanjing Road which makes sightseeing incredibly easy. From there, walk all the way down to The Bund while enjoying the chaos of this awesome street. There's a resident cat (didn't catch a name) but it's cute, fluffy and black and white! Plenty of toilets, showers, sinks per floor for the amount of being staying at the hostel. There's a chill space on 3f with a nice view over the street, good for reading, laptop work or quietly eating. Downstairs there's a big chill area and also a bar, in the evenings they seem to play movies on the projector too! Bunks were very comfortable, clean and spacious. The curtains are blackout so it stays comfortable even in the daytime / if someone switches a light on. Large lockers per bed (free and accessed with a key card) so my stuff was always safe. Although after just a few days, I think it's safe to say China is extremely safe! No kitchen for cooking but plenty of eateries about, China is very affordable for food and transport. Hope this helps a fellow traveller, don't hesitate and book here! There's also a 7-Eleven just across the street.

It's relatively clean, the overall feeling is good, and it's convenient to travel! There are many classic and delicious specialties around! Yellow croaker noodles, pork ribs noodles, brunch, and 550 independent shops that are worth visiting!
Hi Cozy International Youth Hostel (Nanjing East Road And The Bund)
4.6/5265 Reviews
People's Square
This was a decent stay. I like the location. The women at front desk were nice and helpful. Only the room's very compact. You can't open the luggage inside. The facilities are nice. Had it not been for the gym access, this would not have made sense. So, yes a bit pricey otherwise. And very entrepreneurial women at the front desk. If I have a stop in shanghai again i might just return for a stay.
Mijia International Youth Hostel (Shanghai People's Square)
4.3/51404 Reviews
Train Station Area
The hostel is not far from the Line 8 subway. There are also many shops nearby. It is also very convenient to eat. It's just that the room space is a bit small and the public space is a bit damp because of its small size. However, the overall beds are clean and it is still a good accommodation choice.

Train Station Area
My experience here is great. Very clean and nice place located just right near by Shanghai railway station. I would be even happier if you have free instant coffee and tea as well as some snacks in the future.
Beehome  Hostel
4.1/5173 Reviews
Lujiazui Area
It‘s the low season and I had the entire dorm for myself. A bit of a pity, because I couldn’t meet people, bit I was staying two nights only anyway. The bathroom is part of the dorm, so you‘re only sharing with the people there which I greatly appreciate. There was a bit of a bad smell, though. Luckily I had a stuffed nose and couldn’t smell that well anyway. The mattresses look thicker in the pictures because the sheet covers the wooden plank and padding both. If you prefer harder beds it‘s perfectly comfortable. I was a bit late for check-in and very grateful that the guy at the counter checked me in, even though I startled him when I tried to open the door. Thank you very much for your help!
Dayin International Youth Hostel - Shanghai Oriental Pearl Lujiazui Branch
4.4/51553 Reviews
Lujiazui Area
I stayed here for 1 day and found everything very new, the garden was beautiful and there was a cute cat. But my room is a bit dark, has no windows and it's quite difficult to breathe, but I usually go out to play and only come back to sleep at night so that doesn't affect me. 4.9/5
Shanghai Puchun Intl. Hostel
4/51843 Reviews
Yu Garden Area
The location is quite meh, not too close not too far to the famous locations so thats good, i came up to the receptionist wanting to check in and not only was it a smooth check in but also had a nice chat with the manager(i think he was the manager), honestly the manager made me very positive about the place, he deserves a raise goddamn hahahah though there was one thing i hated, it was the fact that you had to ask for a new passcode everytime you go in your room and it renews every 2 hours, thank God the manager made it a very positive experience because if not, i will probably be writing a very different kind of review. He was so delightful even after checkout, he sent me off with a bottle of water. 10/10 for the manager, 7/10 for the actual hotel and i suggest you do something about the cigarette smell, when i returned, i smelt on the clothes i left out in the room, mind you i am not a smoker, it all smelt like cigarettes and i had to wash everything, anyways good experience, would only return because of the manager👌🏻 and no soap or shampoo was provided
No.1 International Youth Travel Service
4.7/5711 Reviews
The Bund Area
The hostel is conveniently located near the Bund and close to the metro. Based on the whole 9th floor of a city highrise, it has a comfortable and large common room. The staff are all helpful although not all can speak a language other than Chinese. I stayed in an 8 person male dorm and although the bed width was a little bit narrower than usual, however being purpose built with thick privacy curtains, power and light points, security locker, clothes shelf and shirt hangers within this space, shoes and luggage space underneath I have rarely seen this much attention to travellers' needs in other hostels I have used in the past. It is a comfortable hostel. Though a little lacking in travel tips. What to do and what and where to eat. (I have travelled in the last 40 plus years and I have been to about 100 countries all over the world. Mainly backpacking). I would certainly consider staying here again. I rate it as almost excellent.
DENGBA   HOSTEL
4.5/51165 Reviews
People's Square
I booked a bed in a 8-bed dormitory, with AC. The dormitory is a bit small, so you can feel packed, especially with everyones' luggage. The bed is a bunk bed, large enough, with a fair enough good mattress. For this dorm, you have access to an ensuite bathroom (shower + toilet) and a sink outside the bathroom. All could definitely be cleaner. The WiFi could be better. The staff is very nice and friendly. The location is very convenient, close to Nanjing Road. I would definitely recommend this place for a short or a long stay.
