Quiet, Safe, and Social Hostels in Suzhou, China

Quiet, Safe, and Social Hostels in Suzhou, China
Suzhou: a city of canals and history. Worth a visit of at least a few days, Suzhou is an important historical city as it was home to the Wu kingdom. Various gardens and historic buildings line the plethora of canals that stretch out from the main river, adding to the vibrant economic and cultural atmosphere of the city.

The hostels we've listed here are all near the Old Town area and provide guests with comfortable places to stay in charming locations. The down side of historical buildings is often the older facilities, especially the bathrooms, so be warned that with such historic charm comes the price of non-charming other things. But the hostels make up for that in other areas, so give them a good look and then make your decision.
