About Melbourne

Melbourne is often seen as the more cosmopolitan cousin to Sydney, home to artists and bohemians alike. Most prefer one to the other, but either way, we’re here to help you find your perfect hostel in Melbourne for your next trip. We’ve got cheap youth hostels to choose from all over the city.

Those looking to get off the beaten track might be more at home in St Kilda. Mixing Edwardian houses, Art Deco flats and modern high-rises, St Kilda has a more laid-back atmosphere thanks to its former life as a mecca for musicians, poets, artists and bohemians. Take a stroll down to the beach, rent a bike and explore the city at your own pace or, spend your day at the historic Luna Park.

For those who want maximum convenience, the best areas to stay are the city centre itself, Carlton and Fitzroy or East Melbourne.This will put you on the doorstep of popular attractions like the Royal Botanic Gardens, National Gallery of Victoria and Queen Victoria Market. There are plenty of free things to do in Melbourne too.

When it comes to finding the best local spots, it’s always a good idea to ask the people working at your hostel. They’re a treasure chest of local knowledge and will usually know a few places that you would never find in a guidebook. That, or find a group in the common room to tag along with for the day. Regardless of where you stay in Melbourne, the city is a hotbed of ethnic diversity, delicious food , artsy markets, quaint side streets and cool rooftop bars.

In terms of transport, Melbourne has a generous choice of public transport available with trains, trams and buses running throughout the city and outer suburbs. For your travels in Melbourne its best to buy a Myki card, which you can top up online, handy right? If you’re spending the day exploring Melbourne’s city the trams are your best form of transport, while, if your adventures are taking you a little bit further out the trains are your best bet.
