Property Description

The Pickled Frog has been a haven for Hobart travellers since colonial times.

Painted in unmissable Kermit green, our hostel is a landmark on Liverpool Street.

We’ve been voted Hobart’s number one backpacker’s hostel three years running. You don’t get better than that.

We know what backpackers want.
We have the hottest showers and the coldest beers.
Our rooms are the cleanest and our free internet is super-fast.

We know you’ll want to meet new people, make new friends and feel right at home by our open fire.

We have all the shared space you need to curl up in an armchair and upload your selfies in peace or join the happy crowd at the bar and find a partner to play pool.

Our rooms are comfy, our beds are soft and our staff won’t rest until you do.

We’ll be your party house or your place of refuge.

Kick back and relax or rev up for a big night out – The Pickled Frog is your home in Hobart.

From wine, beer and food festivals to hot-ticket arts and music events, Hobart hosts a lot of parties.

The Pickled Frog is a stone’s throw from the best pubs and grub. Our super friendly staff know all the happening spots in town.

If you’re keen to go rugged and explore the great Tassie wilderness, we know what to see and how to get there.

We’ll help organise your day trips, plan your hiking routes and help you get around as cheaply as possible.

And when you come back to town worn out from breathing the world’s cleanest air, we’ll give you free parking, cheap beers during Happy Hour and great company.

Nothing’s too much trouble at The Pickled Frog.

Listen, I loved this place. The atmosphere is so warm and friendly, everyone is chill and keen for a drink, and the staff were amazing. That being said, it will not be for the people keen on a perfectly clean place where they will get an immaculate sleep. But damn, did it feel like home to me! Would definitely stay again!

A lovely little hostel with loads of character. The larger dorms are directly next to the common room so can be a bit noisy.

Most of the people there looked like they are long-term residents, which made it a bit hard to meet people. The staff was very helpful. Rooms were quite small.
