Only 3 minutes' walk from the Temple of Marquis Wu (Wu Hou Ci), Holly's Hostel in Chengdu provides affordable dormitory and private rooms with free Wi-Fi. A pool table and bicycle rentals are available. The on-site restaurant serves Chinese food.

The hostel is located in a very interesting alley surrounded by tibetan shops and it is right next to a temple you can go and visit as well. From there you can reach the city centre easily on foot or with the metro. The room was spacious and the bed was very comfortable with good WiFi. Since it is in a secondary alley it is also very quiet. I think the lady at the reception can also speak a bit of English but we mainly talked in Chinese. I also had breakfast there and it was really good (chinese style breakfast) with mantou, rice, a few vegetables, soups, tea and eggs. The staff also helped me book a place for the Sichuan Opera (do it well in advanced if you want good spots, in tourist season it is hard to find any seats at all) and I also booked a mahjong lesson with them and it was super fun, you basically play with the staff for at least 3 hours and get complimentary tea and fruit.

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.

    I love this hostel. The rooms were really clean and it was so quiet at night. The staff were really helpful offering help with booking tickets to the Panda centre and advice on how to get to the mountains. I would definitely return to this hostel if I found myself in Chengdu again.

    LORA is very gentle and friendly, helping to solve problems! I really like the green plant tables and chairs outside the hostel gate. You can have a leisurely breakfast, enjoy the breeze at night, and watch movies, all of which are very comfortable!

    Great location, all the staff were friendly and helpful. Must say I expected more of a chatty environment in the bar downstairs but it was relatively quiet during our stay. Partly due to off season, partly due to some renovations happening to the rooms. Still the best hostel vibe we’ve found on our trip in China so far
