Home Travellers Motel- St Kilda Reviews

A Great hostel within walking distance of the beach with a friendly laid back atmosphere with lots of regulars who know all the good things to do nearby.

Home travellers is affordable and I definitely think you get what you pay for. My friend and I shared a double room and it was clean, comfortable and attractive. It also was well serviced and in a good location. Our only concern was the (loud!) parties every night. After the first night we bought earplugs and slept like babies. So yes, if you want cheap nice accomdation and don't mind noise this place is perfect!

Dirty and noisy hostel even there should be silence after 10 pm poeple are partying over night. Location is a bit far from center but neares train stop is only 20 meters from front gate.

Kitchen was a bit smelly, but good atmosphere especially if you like to drink all day.

We stayed at Home travellers motel for five nights. First night we stayed at a double room, witch was nicer than we ever wished for. Really clean, spaceous and beautifully furnished and decorated. It had tv, fridge, air con and pretty much everything you could wish for. :) The 6-people dorm was also nice and the rooms were cleaned every day. The kitchen was cleaned many times a day, so using the kitchen was ok.

I booked Home for 1 night before going to Tasmania. The hostel & facilities are fine, everything you can expect for budget accommodation, however what makes the place so great and sets it apart from hostels I've visited is the atmosphere.I was welcomed with by a cheery staff member, who introduced my to my room mates, from then on I felt I was amongst friends! The En-suite dorm rooms are clean, with icy air-con and comfy beds. Staff are friendly &knowledgeable about the area. I will be back!!!

I came to the Home Travellers on my own only planning to stay a few days but after being welcomed by the staff there and all of the residents in changed my mind and im booked to stay indefinitely!! I would recommend this place to anyone travelling on there own, ive been there just short of two weeks and it already feels like HOME! The hostel is also in a great location and its just a short walk to the the high street and the beach.

The room had everything that we needed with a comfortable bed. But the second time that we stayed was the St Kilda Festival weekend. When we arrived we found a large number of people already drunk, some men's knickers and 6 TV remotes in the room. During the night a group of people sat on the balcony outside our room having a very loud jolly chat for an hour or so, until someone else complained. During this time there was no sight or sound of any staff. Too bad - needed sleep before long drive.

Awesome time in this hostel. Very easy to meet people. Could do with some shelves next to the beds to put things on and sometimes the male staff were a bit grumpy but generally nice. Would recommend a stay here to any backpacker for sure.

great atmosphere, friendly people, defiantly the best hostel i've stayed in melbourne.

It was one of the most dirtys hostell I ever been to, but the people there was great. The location was exelent and the place had a really good Atmosphere.

Really cool people!

Ye are great!!!

Great hostel to stay at. Close to shopping, restaurants and the lovely st Kilda beach.

The hostel needs to be cleaned up A.S.A.P. The kitchen is disgraceful and filthy with the dirt, the room wasnt cleaned once in a full week and for the value of $700, we expected a lot lot more. We had to ask for towels and toilet roll all week. We will NEVER EVER stay there again!! and we esp will not recommend this place to anyone!! They need to rip out that kitchen and lounge area, paint the whole building inside and out and have better rules and organisation for the place.

dirty and chaotic party hostel

Excellent set-up, friendly and welcoming staff. And an all round exhilarating experience

for me one of the best places to stay in Melbourne. best location

the location is great, a bit out of city centre, still easy to get here and quite fast though, heeps of public transport moving through this place.Theres a whole lot of stuff goin on in this area so you wont get bored or anything. The hostel itself is a really nice place to be.But dont expect like Plaza or Ritz but if u a backpacker u gonna like it 4sure!the staff is friendly and nice, willing to help u out and guests r good&friendly.U gonna have a good time if u not a snob,or ifUr:)comeANDsee!!

Our original plan was to stay here for 2 nights...and now we\'re booked in for 9 nights and possibly more! The staff are extremely friendly and helpful and the beach is only a 5 minute walk away! There is also a backpackers bar right down the street so entertainment and drinks are near! It is also a short 2 minute walk to the miain street in St. Kilda which has all the essentials..(groceries, drug stores, clothing shops and more!) Over all a really great hostel!
