Location right next to the beach was perfect for me. ##### Lorna Stayed 1 night in Aug 2022 ### 6/10 Okay #### Andy 30 Jun 2025 Liked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities I had a single room and shared ablution, so half asleep left room for a toilet break, without my key pass??? Next 7 hours was fun in the lobby. Thankful for a fire to keep me warm and a spare doona, pillow given to me from a tenant or guest. One for the memory bank ;0) ##### Andy Stayed 1 night in Jun 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 10 Dec 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Good base, nice atmosphere The place is clean with good facilities and a nice atmosphere. Minutes from shops, places to eat and the beaches. It’s an old building so can be noisy- windows rattle, pipes scream, floorboards creak and the rooms need to have slow shutters attached- doors slam all night. Good communal areas and friendly, helpful staff. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 4 nights in Dec 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Andrew 5 Oct 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This is a drop of paradise i don’t know why more people don’t come here, the property is massive, old fashioned and well kept. Free surfboards and wet suits to borrow, the common areas are stunning and packed with things to do. If you're going up the east coast you have to stop here for a couple nights on your way up to brisbane or down to Sydney you won’t regret it. Seriously! ##### Andrew Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 25 Jan 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort #### Ok Good place but looking a bit run down. Toilets and showers are old. No aircon in the rooms, especially bad in the 10 bed dorm ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Susan 25 Apr 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities I stayed at this property for the ease of the Dawn Service.

Un séjour agréable, des rencontres et un accès direct à la plage.

It was very quiet, had a fan and lovely view. Location is close to the beach and park with a quick walk to city centre. It’s a grand old building with lots of charm and very comfy bed. Dream sleep. Bathrooms clean. ##### Chelle Stayed 1 night in Feb 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Fabienne 22 Jan 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Great location 5min from the beach, the building is definitely older, the rooms are quite stuffy (mine had no a/c) and my window was broken. Bathroom was clean and the staff I encountered friendly. Was hoping for a few more activities. ##### Fabienne Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Crystal 28 Dec 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Easy check in.

It's a beautiful old building a stone's throw from the stunning Newcastle beach. Had a double room with fan & TV, even a view of the sea! Perfect for my needs. Will be back :) ##### Hazel Stayed 1 night in Nov 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rafaela 14 Nov 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Staff was great and accomodating.

The location is AMAZING so close to the beach and was able to walk to all the restaurants and bars. We even had an ocean view! Staff were very lovely too! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Piyawan 3 Sept 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities There was one lady staff who were so kind. Due to my knee injuries, she helped me look for a bottom bed bunk herself and found me the best shared room. Thank you so much indeed. I am still very grateful till this day. The areas around this YHA were really nice - refreshing and relaxing. I'm wishing to visit there again. ##### Piyawan Stayed 5 nights in Jun 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tani 28 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities It was a great location, nice facilities and an easy time. We did have a car and it is paid parking all around the area is 2 hours between 9am - 6pm Mon-Friday. Nobby's and Mereweather Beach offer 4 hours free parking and I am sure there will be other locations to find around the area. Didn't affect our experience ##### Tani Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Stephanie L 24 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Returned Every Year!!!

Wish all where like this one. Feels like a home away from home. ##### Roni Stayed 3 nights in May 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Mark 26 May 2024 Liked: Staff & service, amenities Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities Some problems due to workmen staying at the youth hostel. Wandering through corridors in tight, skimpy underpants, noisy, unfriendly. Also urine all over toilet seat in men's bathroom/toilets on first floor. ##### Mark Stayed 1 night in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Irene 5 May 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The location is excellent. It's close by to the light rail station and bus stop. It's also close to the beach! Plenty of dining option nearby. The facilities are also great. I especially like the lounge area. Most importantly, I feel safe staying there as a solo female traveller. Feedback: The pillow case and the blanket in my single room has stains on them. ##### Irene Stayed 2 nights in May 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Nicole 8 Feb 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities tolles Hostel mit älteren Einrichtungen und Jugendherbergcharakter vorallem in der Küche das Hostel hat aber eine super Lage!! und man kann kostenlos Surfboards ausleihen ##### Nicole Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2024 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Vibe Hotel Sydney Darling Harbour](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-Vibe-Hotel-Sydney-Darling-Harbour.h36379202.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Morris Sydney - Handwritten Collection](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-The-Morris-Hotel-Sydney.h1738408.Hotel-Information) > > [InterContinental Sydney by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-InterContinental-Sydney.h9035.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Sydney](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-Hilton-Sydney.h16892.Hotel-Information) > > [Crowne Plaza Sydney Darling Harbour by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-Crowne-Plaza-Sydney-Darling-Harbour.h41523348.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Regency Sydney](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-Hyatt-Regency-Sydney.h15886.Hotel-Information) > > [Pullman Sydney Hyde Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-Pullman-Sydney-Hyde-Park.h14111.Hotel-Information) > > [Four Seasons Hotel Sydney](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-Four-Seasons-Hotel-Sydney.h2220.Hotel-Information) > > [Aiden by Best Western Darling Harbour](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-Aiden-By-Best-Western-Darling-Harbour.h67610514.Hotel-Information) > > [Harbour Rocks by Ode Hotels](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-Harbour-Rocks-By-Ode-Hotels.h40904.Hotel-Information) > > [ibis Newcastle](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newcastle-Hotels-Ibis-Newcastle.h892394.Hotel-Information) > > [Novotel Sydney on Darling Harbour](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-Novotel-Sydney-On-Darling-Harbour.h26579.Hotel-Information) > > [Sydney Harbour Marriott Hotel at Circular Quay](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-Sydney-Harbour-Marriott-Hotel-At-Circular-Quay.h18811.Hotel-Information) > > [Paradox Sydney](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-Paradox-Sydney.h564600.Hotel-Information) > > [Novotel Sydney Parramatta](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-Novotel-Sydney-Parramatta.h17525.Hotel-Information) > > [Meriton Suites Mascot Central](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-Meriton-Suites-Mascot-Central.h15130172.Hotel-Information) > > [Pullman Sydney Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-Pullman-Sydney-Airport.h15271653.Hotel-Information) > > [Rydges Sydney Airport Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-Rydges-Sydney-Airport-Hotel.h5932305.Hotel-Information) > > [Veriu Green Square](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-Veriu-Green-Square.h33512844.Hotel-Information) > > [Ibis Budget Newcastle](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newcastle-Hotels-Ibis-Budget-Newcastle.h9627133.Hotel-Information) > > [Meriton Suites Sussex Street](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-Meriton-Suites-Sussex-Street.h25019183.Hotel-Information) > > [The Urban Newtown](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-The-Urban-Newtown.h9140131.Hotel-Information) > > [SKYE Suites Sydney](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-SKYE-Suites-Sydney.h24507540.Hotel-Information) > > [Rydges Australia Square](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-The-Tank-Stream.h11718621.Hotel-Information) > > [PARKROYAL Darling Harbour, Sydney](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-PARKROYAL-Darling-Harbour.h22576.Hotel-Information) > > [The Grace Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-The-Grace-Hotel.h460380.Hotel-Information) > > [Shangri-La Sydney](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-Shangri-La-Sydney.h11974.Hotel-Information) > > [Meriton Suites Kent Street, Sydney](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-Meriton-Suites-Kent-Street.h19290784.Hotel-Information) > > [Wake Up!
