About
The hostel where ‘let’s just grab something’ turns into a three-suburb food crawl. Mad Monkey Broadway is the city explorer’s base - planted perfectly between Central Station, Newtown’s vintage stores and street art, and the dumpling heaven of Chinatown in Haymarket. If your Sydney plans are more eat-shop-explore than rage-repeat, this is your spot. Every room is air-conditioned - cool nights all summer, guaranteed. Dorms come in mixed and female-only options. The vibe here is calmer and more homely than the Kings Cross properties: guitars get picked up in the common room, plans get swapped over dinner, and the energy stays easy. But a quiet base doesn’t mean a quiet life - organised events and nights out run seven days a week, and the weekend joint Mad Monkey parties at Downtown and East Side are a short train ride away whenever you want them. Free local gym access is included, the Broadway shopping centre is around the corner, there’s a great swimming pool across the road, and a single bus takes you straight to Sydney’s beaches. The Harbour Bridge and Opera House are close by too. With Central Station minutes away, Broadway is also the smartest launch point in the family for day trips - Blue Mountains, anyone? And the easy connection to everywhere else in Sydney.
