Central Backpackers Reviews

I never thought a dorm can be as comfy.

Good hostel for everyone, who wants to party day and night. Bad hostel for people who don't.

Lovely place whit a really friendly staff!!!

Lockers were too small for anything but valuables, but the location was good, wifi included.

I didn't come to the hostel for fun, I came for work, so I don't feel qualified to comment on fun levels! But the other people seemed happy, the outside area is very nice and clean and good for socialising. I liked the fact that there is a balance between louder public spaces and quieter relaxing spaces (the rooms) for those who want that.

A really great hostel with super friendly staff. we felt truly welcome. thanks!

Everything fine. Would always go there again.

The hostel was nice enough. Our room was a little noisy because it was next to the deck area, but they provide free ear plugs so it wasn't really a problem. The staff were fantastic and friendly and the hostel has a good atmosphere. I would recommend that friends stay here.

I have stayed at many hostels and this one is up there with the best. The staff here are absolutely amazing, especially Mick who runs the place. They are all really friendly, will hang out with everyone as they live there and keep the place really clean. If you're looking for a place to stay in Oxford then look no further. You won't regret it. Also, if you are staying for a week or more there are really reasonable weekly rates.

This was a great place to stay and was also very sociable and easy to meet people. The staff were relaxed, friendly, and helpful. The location is great if you need to catch an early train, or don't want a long walk from the station as it's just around the corner. Also just around the corner from the main shopping streets and I recommend the Lebanese restaurant just next door to the hostel - nice atmosphere and tasty food!

There were bed bugs, and the hostel is directly on top of two very loud nightclubs. I would not recommend staying here, there are much nicer places in Oxford.

could recommend to any(relaxed)traveller - .A group of adults living in harmony and conviviality.Very helpful staff and snug rooms.No rules except consider thy neighbour.SUPERB.

Absolutely great place to stay! The manager was just awesome and very friendly and helpful!

A great place to stay. The helpfulness of staff and welcoming feel made up for the noise from a bar nearby. Very relaxed and fun and the only hostel I stayed at in England that has good bedsl

Brilliant hostel - travelled alone and the place is welcoming and a great place to meet people. It's small enough to get to know familiar faces, but busy enough to generate a great buzz. Good for both the partying and early-night types.

Good hostel within walking distance to downtown. Parking near the hostel is outrageous. The shower at the end of the hall was dirty and crawling with spiders.

Great Hostel ! Clean and simple + a deck to socialise and smoke a cigarette peacefully.

This actually turned out to be one of my favorite hostels. The staff was so great and the rooms and bathrooms were clean. Loved the the rooftop and common room. Overall it was a very nice place and I'd definitely stay there again!

The proprietor was friendly and helpful. The rooms were a bit cramped but there were common areas where we could go for a breather.

The worst moment is when you leave.
