What backpackers would love the most about Beijing Saga International Youth Hostel mainly is its location. Situated within the historic neighbourhood of Shijia Hutong, this hostel is less than a kilometre from Dongsi Area and Wangfujing Shopping Street. The hostel provides accommodation in basic clean rooms with either shared or private bathrooms. A TV, personal safe and hairdryer are there in every room. Travellers willing to explore the Tiananmen Square and the Forbidden City in detail can take bicycles on rent from the hostel. While there’s a lovely terrace offering views of the old city, there’s a well-known restaurant-cum-bar on the ground floor which offers delicious dishes from both local and Western cuisines.
