Hi, welcome to Chengdu and thanks for taking the time to find a little more about us. The DRAGON TOWN Youth Hostel has been running for over 6 years and it has a great name not only in the word of mouth, but also can be found easily in quite a few guide books.
The Hostel is in a very traditional Sichuan styled courtyard house, in the downtown of Chengdu, the best part of the preserved HUTONG area with easy access of all transportation to all terminals. It takes only 12 minutes to walk to the city center Mao’s statue, and 5 minutes walk to the Central People’s Park (Where you can enjoy a cup of tea).
Our hostel is actually a family-owned facility offering all its guests a warm personal welcome and detailed services in a relaxed atmosphere of peace and tranquility where you won't feel alone, cause in our little café you can meet all kinds of backpacking people from all over the world. The friendly staff speaks excellent English and would love to help you with all your needs, all our lovely rooms are clean and comfortable, and they are all in a very good value.
The hostel’s café is ready to serve you the best quality things from your first coffee when you wake up…
...In the sense of home, Dragon Town Youth Hostel is the warmest while you are traveling...

Customer Reviews Chengdu - Dragon Town International YH

| I stayed in the private room with my girl friend for three nights. The best parts of the hostel are definately the location and the friendly staff; all the staff members gave us great destinations and restaurant suggestions. Downsides, our room had a constant mildew smell from the bathroom (which is separated from the bedroom with just a curtain) and the room always felt damp. Next time I go back I will probably stay at "The Loft", the sister hostel a few blocks away. | ||

| We paid 105% of the price because they didn't reimburse us the 5% deposit we already paid to hihostel...
We sent them a email, but they never answered ! | ||

| Another great stay here. The girls on the desk went out of their way to help us book accomodation in Tibet. Definitely coming back! | ||

| The website was not coordinated with the actual hostel. though I only cancelled one night online, the hostel thought that I cancelled 2 nights. Thus, we had to adjust our accommodations. | ||

| Great location. Didn't like the washing hanging up outside in communal area. The map on the website was very vague, it took a while to find it. However, the staff were very helpful and it was definitely value for money. | ||

| I've stayed at Dragontown twice now, once in 2007 and once in 2011, and both times were a pleasant experience. Free towels are a big plus to those of us who like to go out and travel for weeks at a time. The street in front of the hostel is a bustling lane full of places to eat or just people watch, but to get good cheap food you needn't walk far and there are places to get rice, noodles, and dumplings. I would recommend this place to friends who go to Chengdu and I plan to stay there again in the future. Also, for those of us that enjoy a energy filled night life, at the time of my stay, the hostel takes you out to one of the local clubs where you can drink for free and only need to pay for transportation getting there. | ||
