Hostelworld says
Dreamtime Traveller's Rest was rated #1 in Australia and #2 in Oceania at the 2011 Hoscars and it's not difficult to see why. This hostel has a cosy, relaxed and home-like atmosphere with a pool and BBQ area set in a tropical oasis. It's located across the road from Cairns Central railway station and shopping centre, about 15 minutes walk from the Esplanade and the lagoon. Hostelworld guests say the staff are 'really friendly, helpful and full of information' and that 'because the common area is so nice, it's easy to meet people hanging out there'.

We had an absolute amazing time whilst staying at dreamtime! From the moment we arrived we felt very welcomed by the staff and other guests. We found making friends with the people staying there very easy! Tim was a gem, a fountain of knowledge for the local area, any time we had a request he had a great suggestion. He was able to help us book all our tours and got us a little discount too. Our room was perfect, bed was comfy, and had a fridge which was a bonus. The hostel was also cleaned daily

We went because of the high rating. The best part of the hostel was the staff as they were very very helpful with booking help and recommendations (especially Tim). There are multiple kitchens which was nice. Unfortunately, the other residents weren’t very social and the bathroom facilities could use improvements. Overall, we had a good experience but fell short of 9.9 expectations.
