Collingwood Accommodation Melbourne Reviews

Great hostel! Definitely would go there again!

A very good hostel with a good atmosphere.

The hostel has a very family-like feeling to it. It has brilliant common area/courtyard and a very relaxing atmosphere. The rooms are spacious and has everything a backpacker needs. It's the place to come if you want a genuine Melbourne experience. Definitely recommend staying here.

I was extremely surprised. Nothing too impressive on first glance but I ended up extending my stay there due to the excellent location and the fantastic people staying there. The hostel itself has great character and has a very relaxed vibe to it, the location is just a couple blocks from a great neighborhood full of great restaurants, cafes, and pubs. The staff are great and easy to get along with and the long stayers were friendly and welcomed me in, which really made the whole experience

Small hostel, which is somehow a bit different. Personal atmosphere, but mostly long term residents. Cleanliness is ok. Walk and tram to the city centre takes about 20 min, but there are still numerous bars, shops and outlet stores around.

I wish I could stay longer, but I'm coming back in March, so no need to be sad :) It's a very funky place with the most friendly staff. Your first impression may be a bit different, but you will soon change your mind. There were only two things I didn't enjoy - the smoking which is allowed in all common areas. And then I wish some girls in the room would be more considerate in the mornings/evenings, when the rest is still sleeping. But that's the people's problem, the place itself is great!!

Hihgly recommend this hostel. Felt right at home. Loved my time here. Very homey feel.

This is not your typical hostel, it has the heart, soul and feel of one big share house as most people are long term stayers. Unless you have a sense of humour I would steer clear as the owner Paul will have you crying with laughter and his side kick Rob is a legend no matter what time of day or night. Location is great, amenities are more than suitable and I’ll be back for sure.

Incredible place- management and owner are fantastic, and really helpful! Clean, secure, and just minutes away from melbourne's attractions. wouldn't stay anywhere else, and couldn't recommend it more highly- Thanks collingwood!

Loved this hostel! The atmosphere is great and the people were fantastic! Had an absolute blast. Rooms are a good size, location is great. There are lockers in the rooms for your stuff. The kitchen is a bit small but totally manageable. A great place to go and meet people and just chill out. Feels more like a share house then a hostel.

I stayed at Collingwood Backpackers as a gap until I found somewhere permanent to live in Melbourne. At first glance I was a bit wary. No individual keys to each room and quite old looking place and a lot of smokers. But after a couple of days it felt like home, like a massive sharehouse, and I booked to stay on longer. It is a great place to stay if you are hanging around long or short term. The staff and other residents really look after you and it has a great atmosphere. Great location too!

If you're working in Melbourne for a few months, this is a great place to stay! A lot of really friendly people are staying here who are doing the same. If you're only staying for a few days, it's not bad. Everyone is still very nice, as is the free wifi. They really do try to keep it tidy. The kitchen has enough room for a few people to cook at one time, and there is plenty of fridge space for all your food. Also, the shower across from room 1 is the best one! Shhhhh.

Lovely place, super friendly, as long as you are not too regarding on organisation. And all the bed are good. I tried 3 in 4 nights... ^^

Very friendly and helpful staff. Located on Collingwood area, nearby Fitzroy in one of the city’s diverse eating enclaves, gourmet pubs, hip ethnic eateries and lively nightspots to dance the night away. Facilities are alright. Mostly suits for long-term stayers. People are very friendly though.

Great hostel.People very friendly and Paul, the owner great person, alwais helping to you.

One of the best atmospheres I have experienced at a hostel and I have been to many. The location while outside of town is in the much cooler area of town and there are plenty of bars nearby. Another excellent bonus is that Paul the owner is very cool, helpful, and the free internet all week is brilliant. By far, the best hostel in Melbourne I've stayed in.
