Welcome to The Full Moon Backpackers – Your Home in the Heart of Bristol!
Tucked right in the beating heart of Bristol’s colorful cultural quarter, Stokes Croft, The Full Moon Backpackers is where good vibes, great people, and unforgettable memories collide.

Respect the Space
We love good energy—but we also expect mutual respect. Anti-social behaviour, excessive mess, or breaking house rules may result in eviction and being banned from future stays. We’re all here for a good time, not a bad one.
