I stayed here instead of staying in Hunagshan town as I was climbing the mountain, and I am so glad I did, Huangshan is nowhere near as nice or relaxed as Tunxi or this hostel. The dorm rooms had comfortable beds, clean internal hot showers and sep bathrooms, plus aircon for $50 Yuan a night. There is wifi, internal cafe/bar... More

I won't say anything new here. This is an excellent hostel, and indeed, the restaurant across, Meishi Renjia, is a great place to eat (you won't find such quality of cooking, variety of choices or such low prices later, on the mountain). We spent one night in a twin room with ensuite at a discount (member) price Y117. The room... More

My spouse and I spend 4 nights at the Huangshan Old Street Youth Hostel in September 2011. We had booked a twin bedroom with ensuite bathroom (although that was a mistake, since we really wanted one bed for both, so we should have gotten a double room with ensuite). What we loved most of all were the super-helpful and super-competent... More

We used Old Street Hostel as a base to visit the Huizhou Villages and Huang Shan. We stayed four nights in a twin room with ensuite. The hostel is conveniently located at the archway end of Lao Jie (Old Street). It's easy to find and within walking distance to many restaurants, snack stores and shops. A taxi from the train...

This hostel's location is excellent - very easy to find. It's right behind the Laojie (Old Street) stone archway, opposite a popular fine Chinese restaurant. Though it's on a busy pedestrian street, it's not noisy at all when you're in your room. The private ensuite rooms are beautifully decorated with oriental furnishings (unlike most other spartan-looking hostels). The Hostel reception... More

We had a great stay here. Comfortable,clean and good help from the reception. Location the best. Cafe upstair could have been better. A bit dark and food not so good. The restaurant over the road was great. Don't miss it.

We booked the old street youth hostel based on trip advisor reviews. It was a great choice and are teenage companions loved it. We arrived late at night (11.30 p.m.) and the reception staff was extremely helpful and patient and organized a trip for us for next morning 6 a.m. to Yellow mountain. When we returned ( a bit exhausted)... More

Wow, these guys are the best! First, some tips: When you get to Huangshan airport, see if you can have a taxi arranged for pickup, because the taxi drivers will hustle you and absolutely refuse to use the meter. One family was there with a taxi driver for about 45 minutes insisting that he use the meter, and he refused.... More

I have just made my reservation to return to Huangshan, China for the 3rd time in the last 15 months. I will be going for the Year of the Tiger celebration in early February 2010. Once again I will stay in Tunxi, at the Old Street Youth Hostel. On both of my prior visits, I have used this delightful, friendly,... More
