About City Central International Hostel


Searching for a great place to stay in Shanghai? Look no further than City Central Youth Hostel!

---------------------------------
Location
---------------------------------
This hostel is a bit far out the centre(6.9 kilometers away from the People Square).

Caoyang Road metro station is a two minutes walk from the hostel and is very easy to navigate so really easy to get to anywhere.

The subway is not running ALL DAY (5:35-22:43).At night time you have to take taxi to go back from the city centre (around 3 euro).

Our guests gave us the comment: The location of this hostel is not the best, but once you initialy find it the journey to and from gets easier!

Hostel provide a free shuttle bus every morning 9:30 from the hostel to downtown.

---------------------------------
What to see and do:
---------------------------------
this place is granted, theroom is more than ample for the price. Large clean Lobby and inviting with music playing, the bar / dining rooms are well presented. It's not in a tourist area, but with the metro so close and cheap, this is a good thing cause if you stay down in the 'tourist' area, you get asked by 150 different people (no lie) if 'You Wan buy watch, sunglass, dvd, jeans. And don't fall for any Tea Ceremony scams run by young people around People Square, like an Italian guy did.. Use common sense, if people approach you in a tourist area, it's 99% scam. If you are approached in non tourist area like metro or near hostel, then it will more than likely be genuine......
