Chengdu Mix Hostel Courtyard Poshpacker (Wenshu Monastery), hotel in Chengdu

Chengdu Mix Hostel Poshpacker has been a welcoming haven for international travelers for almost 20 years, offering a cozy retreat in this traditional courtyard house to experience Chengdu's laid-back...

Helena speaks English and is very kind. You can apply for tours to Jiuzhaigou and Tibet. However, I can only understand a little English, but she explained things to me many times until I understood. This is the first time I've ever met a hostel staff member who has done this for me. She explained things to other guests really carefully, even outside of working hours, without any unpleasant expressions. You can contact her on Wechat. Her replies are quick and accurate. I was limited in time, so I decided on a tour before arriving at the hostel and was able to go on the tour the next day. During the tour, she was worried about me and sent me messages, and she always cared about me, so I felt very safe during the tour. The other staff at the hostel are also smiling, calm and nice. There are many toilets where you can hang out your laundry. It's clean and cheap. There is a convenience store nearby. It's a great hostel. I recommend this hostel! I love Helena! Thank you so much.

Chengdu Flipflop Hostel Poshpacker (Chunxi Road Metro Station), hotel in Chengdu

Chengdu Flipflop Hostel Poshpacker is perfectly located in downtown Chengdu, right next to Taikooli, the core of Chengdu’s downtown commercial center.

This is easily one of the best hostels I have ever stayed. Great location but the best part is the staff that work here. They will bend over backwards to help. Neil, Zoe and Lucy are the absolute best.

Looking for a hostel?
Budget travellers know that there is 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 bit more.

    Awesome staff. Reminded of a really good quality backpacker place, that catered superbly well for the traveller on a budget who wants great service and to meet other top travellers. We were treated exceptionally well - as were all the guests! Great bunch of students helping to run the place and adding to a very charming and interesting set of surroundings. Wouldn't hesitate to go back. Suits everyone, from families like us, to independent travellers. Loved it!

    Good location nearby 锦鲤 , the staff exceeded expectations. The front desk staff was kindness, and friendly. The hotel was clean, the room was very comfortable and quiet but the best aspect was the service from every member of staff. Highly recommended, if you're looking for the budget hostel.

    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

    Great great great location. Lots of local places to eat around for any wallet. Unlike any other hotel/hostel we stayed at in China they left slippers for taking shower. The staff is friendly. We had fresh towels and empty trash bin every day.
