"This hostel is located in the CBD, very close to Southern Cross Station. It's an easy walk from the airport if you take the SkyBus. The beds are decent, and the common areas are okay. However, the toilets were a bit dirty. It would be better if the showers and toilets were in separate rooms."

"I had a great stay at Melbourne City Backpackers. The location is perfect—just a short walk from Southern Cross Station, trams, and plenty of cafés and restaurants, which made getting around Melbourne really easy. The staff were friendly, welcoming, and always happy to help with recommendations or any questions. The hostel had a good social atmosphere without feeling like a party hostel, so it was easy to meet other travellers while still getting a good night’s sleep. The rooms and shared bathrooms were kept clean, and the free breakfast was a nice bonus. Overall, it’s great value for money, especially if you’re looking for a central place to stay in Melbourne. I’d definitely stay here again and would recommend it to other backpackers."

"The whole place felt a bit humid. The shower and toilet were clean, which was nice. But the shower pressure was really weak, barely a trickle, and the showerhead in my room was fixed, so it was hard to properly wash. Anyone with long hair would probably find it insufficient. However, I only stayed one night, and it was cheap, so I'm satisfied! They also seem to have events, and if the days had aligned, I would've loved to try their free pizza."

Designed for the free-spirited, our beautifully styled spaces invite you to settle in and make yourself comfortable.

Just beyond our doorstep, Melbourne is waiting to be explored. Wander through the iconic Queen Victoria Market, dive into the city's rich coffee culture, or lose yourself in the art-filled laneways and buzzing nightlife. Whatever adventure you’re seeking, Little Drifter North Melbourne is where it begins. Let’s drift away together, somewhere, forever.

"While the hotel room was simple and basic, it offered excellent value for money, especially since I booked it at a special rate and used Trip Coins, which knocked off about AUD$30 – a real bargain! The location is in the northern outskirts of the city center, about a 10-15 minute walk to Queen Victoria Market. As someone who enjoys walking, and strolling through Melbourne's streets is quite pleasant, I really liked the quiet atmosphere here, even though the day I booked was incredibly cold. It's not too far from the bustling city either. On Wednesday night, there was a large night market at Queen Victoria Market, where I could soak in the lively, tourist-filled atmosphere, which was a bonus for me. Nearby, there's a 249 Japanese restaurant that opens at 7 AM, which was my perfect breakfast choice, offering triangular onigiri and really rich black sesame soy milk, all just a 6-minute walk from the hotel. Plus, there are many other great restaurants to choose from in the vicinity, making it a convenient yet peaceful place to stay."

"Book because my friend is staying for a long time. It's a little far from Melbourne's CBD, but there's no problem because the station is close. You can cook and shower. I made a room for men and women, but there was nothing wrong with it. The mattress was too hard and I was probably stabbed by mites or something and I could do something on my body a little, but I'm happy. I'm satisfied because I just went to see my friends rather than traveling. I also made friends. I enjoyed billiards!"

"The location is good but other than that I would not call it a pleasant stay. Rooms and bathrooms are pretty dirty. They clean regularly but apparently not thoroughly. Power on my bunk did not work. The room has a 'temporary' AC which has collected dust like it has been there for a while already and it is unbearably loud. The exhaust air of this is routed to a closed window, therefore all the air stays in the room. Luckily I figured that out and opened the window the 2nd night but the AC still was loud. For $80 a night I do expect more."

Good for one people stay caused it is not much space. Ameities can requested at reception. Location quite good can walk to Southern Cross station, Flinder Station or Town Hall station. For Uber, driver might drop you at the closest street, Flinder Lane. Easy walk just 1 mins but quite hard if you have 2 luggages.

Transiting back home from New Zealand, I stayed for one night, and the price, combined with points redemption, was quite good. The key highlight is the 24-hour airport shuttle service, which is fantastic in Australia where labor is so expensive. I really hope the hotel keeps this up! 😊 No reservation needed for the shuttle. After landing and collecting your luggage, just exit the airport, cross the first pedestrian crossing, and wait at the spot shown in Picture 1. The vehicle is very distinctive because it's branded with the hotel's logo. The wait was about 15-20 minutes. The hotel has its own restaurant, which I hear is quite good, but I was really craving Chinese food. You can order delivery via Uber Eats; delivery speeds here can be quite slow, so it's a good idea to order as soon as you land. I recommend using the hotel's front desk as your delivery point. There's also an IGA supermarket about an 8-minute walk away, so if it's not too late, you can do some last-minute shopping there.

Nice staff let us check in late, there are heating mats on the mattresses, and the room is very clean and spacious. There is a heater but the warm air didn't reach the far side of the room. Close to moonlit sanctuary for those who want to stay nearby.

The room was decent, but for some reason, there was a wet towel in the mini-fridge. Didn't housekeeping notice that? The Wi-Fi signal in the room was also very poor. When I checked in, the room key was just tucked into a scrap piece of paper, not a proper key card sleeve, so I had no idea how to connect to the Wi-Fi. The internal parking lot is quite spacious, but after 7 PM, it's virtually impossible to find a spot, and you have to park on the street. Luckily, they don't ticket there. What's more, an Indian woman actually knocked on my door one night asking if I had bought furniture and needed help moving it! And they didn't even provide complimentary drinking water in the room. The hotel itself is an old building with a lot of history, and the air conditioner remote control must be at least 30 years old. The pros are that there's a Chinese-speaking staff member at the front desk, and it's located near Box Hill, which is predominantly Chinese, almost like a Chinatown. Many restaurants are still open from 10-11 PM, truly showcasing the hard work of the Chinese community. Plus, the prices are reasonable, and the food tastes great. The roast pork at Xiaofang Yayuan, in particular, is as good as what you'd find in Hong Kong, even better than in Shanghai.
