Hostelworld says
Home at the Mansion was rated the most popular hostel in Melbourne at the 2011 Hoscars and no wonder - it\'s centrally located near Queen Victoria Market, Federation Square and Chinatown. Hostelworld guests have said this is ‘a great hostel to arrive to in Melbourne, especially just getting off of a long flight’. This hostel has clean, bright and airy rooms with high ceilings and our users say they particularly appreciate the ‘awesome courtyard with picnic tables/sun loungers/ping-pong table/dart board’. Several travellers tell us they plan to stay here again because ‘weekends here are party central’.

This has been the best hostel I have stayed at so far (& there’s been a few). All the staff were just so so welcoming and really made me feel at home. The facilities were really clean. Fantastic kitchen and bathrooms. Great location. Everything is a short walk away or the tram stop is just around the corner so you can easily get to places such as St Kilda or Brunswick. Once again for me it was the staff just creating an amazing environment where everyone felt like friends! Definitely recommend!

The staff was very friendly and the location of the hostel is good. The shared areas like bathrooms are clean and well maintained. Unfortunately I was staying in a 7-bed dorm where most of the occupants were long term residents. The room was not very clean and was very crowded and messy, and there was literally no space to leave my luggage. I could not access to the locker that was between 2 beds and had to crawl to open it. I would recommend to have less beds in those rooms, thanks.

Lovely helpful staff. Lovely building. Rooms were a bit cramped but I enjoyed my stay very much. City center too so good for sight seeing!

The Mansion Melbourne says
We're located in one of Melbourne's most impressive and striking heritage-listed building. Even though the building looks huge, we're one of Melbourne's smaller hostels so guests receive more personal service. We have free wine and cheese nights on Wednesdays and 'Sausage Sizzles' on Sundays on the BBQ. There's also regular social nights out, including bowling, footy nights, fancy dress pub crawls and more, plus free DVD hire, a PlayStation games area and a large, sunny garden complete with picnic tables and sun loungers, right smack in the middle of the city!
Our location means you can easily walk to many of Melbourne\'s major attractions such as Chinatown, Queen Victoria Markets, Melbourne Museum and many, many more! The free City Circle tram and tram 96 to St. Kilda beach leave from our doorstep. One of my favourite local areas is Brunswick St; it's literally a short stroll away, where guests can find many funky cafés offering a wide range of cheap meals along with some of the best and most unique shops in Melbourne. Brunswick St is also highly regarded for its pubs and bars, many offering a variety of different live music.
