Here are my top choices for places to stay while visiting suppliers in the markets at Huaqiangbei. Also, many are perfect places for holidaymakers, doing shopping and touring the attractions, as it’s an area with metro lines leading to just about everywhere in Shenzhen. Let’s start with a map, the main section is marked in blue to which the market area spreads outwards to the left and right.

Here are my top picks for hotels in Huaqiangbei:
