Hostels in Queensland, Australia

"Quite good overall, just a little bit crowded for the kitchen, but they have private bathroom for 4 bed dorm so it’s quite good"

"• room: clean bedsheets and pillows, clean AC filters and overall a compact functioning double room. Even though the room was nearby the stairs I did not hear noise from people passing by and had a good sleep • shared bathroom was cleaned meticulously. • amenities: they have a pool which is really nice and the inner courtyard is quite comfortable and has space to interact with other guests as well to just chill • location: 15 min taxi from the airport (only way to go to the airport) 10 min walk from the train station and 15 min walk to the seaside. There are few restaurants and a supermarket in front of the hostel • staff: kind an supportive my background: I travel 320 days a year since 8 years staying in all range of accomodation from hostel to 5star. I just review objectively what I see with no judgement"

"Attention! There are some problems with booking between the hostel and Trip.com. We booked a whole room with 4 beds over trip (which was explicitly in the booking). Before arrival we were already called from the hostel to ask how many people we arrived with. At the arrival we were informed that we had booked not the whole room, but only one bed in this room. To be able to sleep in the hostel second, we had to pay more than the amount already paid and yet more people were sleeping in the room. We were very angry that the hostel did not mention this in the telephone call and we only learned about it when we were there. But after these problems we liked the stay very well."

"The room was clean and overall, it was a very comfortable stay. It's quite close to the city center, about a 15-minute walk. It's convenient, but it's also near the train tracks, so you might get a bit of noise from the trains. There's a bar on the rooftop in the evening, which is a great place to meet new people!"

"Excellent location in central Brisbane, nice amount of space in room with on-suite, mini fridge also in room is a nice touch Towel also provided on arrival, only slight issue being no many sockets in room but it’s manageable."

"After a long day of driving, i arrived at the place because i just needing a place to sleep for the night. It’s basic, as expected, but at least it was clean. The room was small and plain, with just the essentials—a bed, a desk, with shared bathroom. It wasn’t particularly comfortable, and the amenities were minimal, but it served its purpose as a quick stopover. The staff was polite enough, and while it’s not somewhere we’d stay for more than one night, it worked for what we needed: a budget-friendly, no-frills place to rest before hitting the road again."

"Okay here’s my review. The Espy has so much going for it in terms of being central to the entertainment precinct of Cairns Esplanade.  Check in was easy and friendly and the two bunk dorm had its own dedicated ensuite bathroom which was very clean and quite large. The bedroom was clean and the bunks were enclosed wood and steel construction with zero squeaking. Clean towel and linen provided. So that’s all the very good stuff. The not as good things I observed were: - the lounge/common areas were dimly lit, very tired (bordering on festy) furniture and not somewhere I’d socialise due to limited seating, very few power/USB outlets or clean comfortable seating. - The pool…. Or should I call it the tropical punch bowl of various biological matter and other detritus… if you’re keen of growing something fungal on your body, go in…. I decided not to. -Kitchen and meal prep area all seemed clean and safe to get your mung bean and tofu ready for consumption.  - The personal under bunk locker was missing its latch and with two roommates I had to say a little prayer that my gear would be safe inside my enclosed bunk. Overall this was my maiden voyage as a backpacker and at 57 years of age, I’ve stayed in a lot of Hotels and Motels costing far more for way less cleanliness. I rate this place highly for all the good reasons above.  The not so good stuff is easily fixed by management but for $65 per night in peak season, I don’t think you can get any better value in Central Cairns right near the action. Pubs, cafes, night market and the City Lagoon. Thanks Espy crew, you made this old dog’s stay a pleasant one and will be back if and when the opportunity presents itself."

"I stayed at Nomads Airlie Beach for a few nights and had a great experience overall. The location is excellent, right in the center of Airlie Beach and within walking distance of shops, restaurants, and the marina. The hostel has a lively social atmosphere, making it easy to meet other travelers. The pool area and common spaces are great for relaxing and hanging out. The rooms were basic but comfortable, and the staff were friendly and helpful throughout my stay. The kitchen facilities were spacious and well-equipped. While some parts of the hostel could use a bit of updating, the overall value for money is very good. I would definitely recommend Nomads Airlie Beach to backpackers and solo travelers looking for a fun and convenient place to stay before exploring the Whitsundays."
