Hostels in Queensland, Australia

"I am amazed by this place-YHA Brisbane city-I chose an all girls room and it was amazing, with lockers, clean and money well spent! Location is within walking distance from the Roma station, Roma street park, Victoria bridge, South bank, CBD, walking street, even the Brisbane Botanic Garden and the old parliament house! After checking out you can leave your bag within the day and still use some amenities! I was truly amazed with that and the staff are superb! Will book YHA in other cities as well! Thanks YHA for making my Brisbane trip extra special!"

"Super chilled, well located and some great walks and beaches from the hostel. It was handy to be able to hire bikes to get down to 1770. The 4 bed dorm was clean, spacious and it was nice to have a couch area in the room to chill in when it got colder in the evenings."

"The hotel's location is excellent, right opposite a large supermarket, making shopping incredibly convenient. It's well-equipped, safe, and clean. This is the best value-for-money hostel I've stayed at in Australia."

"The hostel provide good free breakfast (cereal, bread, jam, juice, milk). It is located on a hill where you will need to walk around 8mins uphill back to hostel from the busstop"

"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."

"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"

"The reason for one slug in the location is that the location is really good, but there is a little steep hill. In addition, there are traces of old facilities, especially kitchen use, so management is a little difficult. Except for that, I think the location is very good except for the hillside. I have a doctor to visit again."

"Overall, it was very clean. The cleaning was thorough, and I was surprised by how clean the common areas were. They closed the kitchen and other areas every night for cleaning, which I appreciated. The dormitory rooms don't have curtains, but the beds are spaced far enough apart, and the beds are fixed to the wall, so there's absolutely no creaking noise. Lockers are also provided, which was reassuring."

"Overall, this hostel deserves 4 out of 5 stars. The rooms were clean and tidy, and the staff were friendly and helpful. I especially liked the central location and the pleasant atmosphere. The common areas were also modern and comfortably designed. My only minor criticisms would be the noise at night and the somewhat small bathrooms in some rooms. Nevertheless, the stay was very enjoyable overall, and it offered good value for money."

"I stayed at the Civic Guesthouse before I got a room in Townsville. I felt that it was a really good place to manage. I used a four-person room, but it was not very uncomfortable because there were several shared toilets and bathrooms, and the staff were all friendly ㅎㅎㅎ I want to introduce you to my friends."
