Kaifeng International Youth Hostel

Opis

Located inside Kaifeng's old city walls situated next to picturesque Bao Gong Lake, Kaifeng International Youth Hostel will make you feel welcome and part of our family from the moment you arrive.

Newly opened in April 2011 this boutique style hostel is owned and managed by an ex-pat Aussie and his Kaifeng wife. We understand that communication is essential in this industry. All of the staff can speak English and all come from Henan province giving them extensive knowledge of the city and surrounding areas. Therefore we can offer valuable travel and tourist sight information like no other place in Kaifeng, thus assuring you get the most out of your stay in the history rich ancient capital of China, Kaifeng.

We are located less than 3 km from the main bus/trian station and all the major sights are within walking distance within the old city walls. As Kaifeng city is flat an easy option is to rent a bicycle (even for those not as fit as others) and ride between attractions giving you more time at each place. Kaifeng's famous nightmarket is about a 10 minute slow walk from the front door of the hostel.

We are not a party hostel, our atmosphere is more of a relaxing home away from home, where after a busy day of sightseeing you can come home and enjoy a nice cold beer in our bar, eat some great food from our Western/Chinese kitchen and chat to fellow travellers or relax and watch the latest DVD's

All our private rooms are equipped with T.V., air-con. kettle, glasses, towel and western toilet ensuite. We offer Singles, Twins, Doubles, Triples and for the more budget minded traveller we have dorm rooms, all of which have a western toilet ensuite.
