Central City Backpackers Reviews

Staff were very friendly and helpful. Good atmosphere, quiet and clean

An over all nice hostel with friendly and helpful staff, not the best hostel I stayed at but not the worst either, cleanish kitchen (didn't use it too much) and big TV in the common room, warm water in the shower and not to crowded.

Kitchen not big enough for the amount of people using it. Good location and friendly staff

Excellent staff. Sorting out everything for you. Easy to organise trips and tours from that hostel. Booked 12 bed dorm and had been upgrated into 6 bed. So it was nice thing. Clean and spacious. Free internet coffee and tea. Good prices and good value.

Great common area. Hostel is in the middle of Hobart. I had a really good time there.

A lot of things were "out of order" (fridge, shower, computers) which made our stay not too enjoyable. Bathroom and kitchen were not the cleanest we have seen...

My friend and I arrived late and were happy that getting out room situated went very smoothly. But that was the only thing that went well that night. I think we were put in the loudest room in the entire hostel. It was directly on the street I know street noises are out of their control but there was so many rooms in the hostel I am surprised they don't save that room as a last resort. The bathrooms were also not very clean. They were kind of gross actually.

Had a great time, but would have been even better with operating showers. I'm sure it must be difficult, but having a freezing or boiling shower is annoying.

arrived late due to a delayed flight. after difficulty getting in contact with the night manager he got angry at me for not being able to get in even though he gave me the wrong code. after eventually getting in he told me to go to reception to get my key but they had left it behind a barrier. poor cleanliness

Old and dirty

Great location, centre of Hobart. Near the buses and Salamanca Market. Really friendly staff. Good beds. Clean bathrooms and plenty of hot water!

In the middle of the centre and free wifi :D The only thing is that you have to walk up to or 3 lang stairs, but the hostel is really great!!

Location is brillant and The staff realy friendly

It felt more like an old hotel than a hostel. Good.

old but nice hostel and very friendly staff.

Very friendly staff and cozy beds. The kitchen is definitely a good place for everyone to make friends!

that's huge backpacker.. centre of Hobart city.. But i couldn't connect wifi in my room.. so i had to using internet at living room and Kitchen..

Nice hostel in good location. Staff very friendly and helpful and we were very happy with our free room upgrade from dorm to private room. Think it’s good that people aren’t all crammed in together like most other hostels. Free wifi was good and the room was warm. Only negative points are: the kitchen wasn’t big enough for the amount of people that were there. The bathrooms weren’t that clean and no soap provided in toilets.

I haven't been to many backpackers, so am always a little wary, but this one was great!! I arrived late on a friday night, the directions given were fantastic and my blankets and key were all set out ready for me!! Very warm and friendly atmosphere, would definately go back!!

A text to my cellphone with the night code would've been helpful as was travelling all day with no email access, but was told it wasn't done because my cellphone number wasn't an Australian number! Nearly had to sleep outside the hostel.
