Amber Youth Hostel (Hangzhou West Lake Lakeside Park Ding'an Road Subway Station Branch)

Well designed hostel, spacious and the luggage storage is the best in size and design. The shoe area where guests should change into indoor slippers is a good idea and most follow but there are still many who walk around in their outside shoes. Not good. The place is supposed to be smoke free but the stink of spent cigarette smoke is strong around the toilets, showers even the women's. Some of the staff smoke in their room (near the common area/'kitchen' ). There is a plastic curtain that separates the veranda area from the inside of the building however smoke can still waft in especially the back veranda where a whole pane of the curtain has broken off. The cleaning staff worked super hard clearing the trash, hair , water and footprints . It gets cleaner outside the weekend.

I love to backpack, it's exciting to travel, very good youth hostel, very safety, and convenient, not so far from the Xihu/west lake. One more thing the staff is very exceptional and you can find a live rooms for meetings and streaming.

Nice place . Comfortable rooms and bed near Westlake ..good simple place to stay in Hangzhou 😍

biggest hostel ever. Employees were helpful, and the big terrace has a good view of west lake.

Best hostel ever 💓✨
