Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    Not at all like a backpackers. Spotlessly clean with many homely touches. Each room has its own secure lock so leaves you feeling safe. No tv in room but great shared lounge, kitchen and bathroom facilities. Will stay again and definitely recommend.

    We liked everything really. It was spacious, comfortable and clean. The kitchen was well equipped. It’s not really a backpackers hostel, more a communal self catering.

    Great location, nice and clean, well presented, budget price. Location behind wine bar gave a good vibe, but might be a bit noisy for some people.

    Being a backpackers and at this price point, my expectations were low, however I was very pleasantly surprised. This is a 6 bed, 3 bathroom house that has been converted to a 'backpackers'. Can be as private or social as you choose. Huge bedroom with a comfortable bed, all the facilities were very clean. Great location, walking distance to everything you want to see in Bendigo, highly recommended.
