Albany Bayview Lodge

Where history, adventure & comfort collide! Step into a place where time has left its mark in the best way possible!

Built in 1852, our backpackers’ accommodation is a living, breathing piece of history—rich with rustic charm, original jarrah floors that creak with stories, grand old doors that have welcomed travelers for generations, and a staircase polished smooth by countless footsteps. Every corner whispers of the past while embracing the vibrant energy of those who pass through today.

And let’s talk about those views! Wake up to the ocean stretching out before you, sip your coffee in a garden cradled by mountains, and then wander straight into the heart of town. We’re perched at the very end of the famous cappuccino strip, surrounded by stylish cafés, world-class restaurants, and a handful of lively bars perfect for swapping travel tales. Located a stones throw away from the bus / train station and plenty of free parking for those with wheels!

We’re always evolving—just like the best adventures. You might notice a few repairs here and there, a touch of fresh paint, or a well-loved corner getting some extra TLC. That’s because we’re dedicated to making this place even better every day—without losing an ounce of its original character.

Whether you’re here to unwind, explore, or just soak up the atmosphere of a place that feels like home (but way more interesting), you’ll find comfort in the chaos, charm in the quirks, and a story in every step. Book your bed, embrace the adventure, and be part of the history!
