Perfect hostel, friendly staff, lots of beer available. Everything was clean. They also have some events and a place for live music. Right in one of the main scenic spots, so you don't have to go far for some evening tourist walks.

Perfect location, super friendly and helpful owners and staff. They’ve put together an incredibly useful and detailed booked of restaurant and sightseeing recommendations, what to order, the restaurants specialty etc. Awesome balcony and rooftop with great views. Almost entirely foreigners so it’s very easy to meet people, relative to other hostels in China. Great common area. Free tea, homemade bread, and ice cream bars. In my top 5 best hostels ever.

Ive stayed there for almost a week. Super nice staff, very helpful they were the best. I had been upgraded so that was great too I was in the more “private” corner of the room. The locations is also the best, everything is very near and it’s super safe. Thee negative points : the room was extremely cold because it’s a room that’s literally opened on the street so you feel all the air the bathroom area was a bit of a mess and a bit dirty there are no mattresses so you do really sleep on wood and I am not used to it which gave me a lot of bruises on my skin because of hard it was

The location was excellent .. steps from subway and many tourist attractions. The best part of staying here was the staff . They were excellent . The day manager gave me $10Y because I did not have cash . Rose was so patient and helpful and would arrange for my taxi. Available always, she game me her cell # if I needed anything. They go out of their way in making your stay in Chongqing very pleasant . Highly recommend. Will stay again. I will miss them.

All hostels in Chongqing

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.

    The facilities in this hostel are good, but the people are what really made it great! The owner made fresh bread every day and supplied free ice lollies in the freezer. He also recommended tons of activities and made me an itinerary for my stay. I don't think I've ever felt more welcomed into a hostel, and I couldn't recommend it enough.

    A very good stay. Very comfortable beds. Of course this review is regarding a hostel, not a hotel. Still expect to get a hostel bed. But for being so cheap, comfortable, clean, good location and nice staff as well, there wasn't anything to complain. It was my second time here after staying there during pre pandemic. And I felt they were doing their work with the same spirit I felt already last time. Really taking care of the people, and you can feel that they are making effort to give you a good stay.

    I really loved Only Cafe and Backpacker hostel and the stuff working there. The location it's superb, the views from the rooftop and balcony are insane, the installations are cleaning and really good value for the price, and they often bake bread which is amazing for snaking. I would absolutely go back and I 100% recommend it.
