Tiancheng International Youth Hostel (Kashgar Ancient City Branch)

The girl on the front desk is helpful using her phone translator, there’s beer in the fridge (Wusu is the strongest but not very strong), the 4-bed room has bathroom and curtains for the beds for privacy. Nice to hear the music from below reaching the room. Great to be in Kashgar for the brilliant Sunday Grand Bazaar livestock and food market, and for the unadorned serene Id Kar main mosque (one of 24,300 mosques in Xinjiang), the mausoleum (walk up the long side road and see it from the back first: it’s beautiful there, there’s no one else and the cemetery is also amazing). The old city isn’t so special but there is a separate part over the main road rather is much less touristy and more appealing. There’s also this beautiful cafe there shown on the last three photos here, with loads of coffees, playing Astrid Gilberto, and with beautiful features he chose to add to the original old-city building.

Lovely place to talk to other travellers. Perfect for individual travellers.

Bathroom cleanliness could be better but overall lovely hostel. The location couldn’t be more perfect and the staff are very friendly! They also have lots of activities available. The rooftop has beautiful views.

Best place in Kashgar for staying ! People are really friendly and welcoming especially Xiao Tun

The location of the hostel is awesome! The dorms are okay, but at least my dorm was unorganized and not so clean. You can hear sound from the street quite well. The staff was kinda helpful, but when I asked about tours they just said they didn’t offer any. Maybe you could at least suggest a tour operator and not just say ”no”? They were also doing some painting and the paint was all over the staircase. The rooftop could be really nice, but it was also under construction.

Excellent hostel banging the middle of old town. Highly recommended
