Fuzimiao International Youth Hostel

Fuzimiao International Youth Hostel is a Hostelling International-affiliated hostel at No. 68-4 Pingjiang Fu Road in Qinhuai District, Nanjing, Jiangsu province, China. It sits on the Qinhuai River, about a three-minute walk from the Confucius Temple (Fuzimiao), the city's best-known tourist quarter. The area combines the temple complex, restored Ming and Qing style streets, the river with its boat rides, and dense street-food and souvenir stalls, and it is especially atmospheric in the evening when the waterfront is lit. The Laomendong historic district and Zhonghua Gate are also within reach, making this one of the most walkable bases for first-time visitors.

As an HI-affiliated hostel, the property offers social, budget-oriented accommodation. Room types listed include Mixed Dormitory, Female Dormitory and Private Double. Typical rates are around ¥60-180 per night (roughly $9-27), varying by season, room type and booking channel, which is among the lowest in the central tourist area.

Listed amenities include wifi, dormitory beds, private rooms, a common area and luggage storage. There is no full restaurant listed, but the common area gives travellers a place to meet others, plan routes and share tips, and the surrounding Fuzimiao streets offer many options for local Nanjing snacks and meals, from duck-blood vermicelli soup to salted duck and dumplings.

Service is informal and travel-oriented, with staff typically able to help with directions, train tickets and local suggestions, and English support is more likely at hostels than at chain economy hotels. The hostel is well suited to solo travellers, backpackers and budget groups. As with other properties in the Fuzimiao area, evenings can be busy and noisy, so light sleepers may prefer a private room or earplugs. The phone number listed for enquiries is +86 25 8662 5133.
