"I stayed 3 hostels (all dorm room) during 1 week in Sydney and I liked Big hostel the most in term of the spacious room and strategic location . I recognized that sharing with more people is actually better option because more people, the room is bigger, meaning we would have better common area. I booked the bed in 4-bed room before in other hostel and the room was too tiny, almost no common space for social conversations; when opening the door, u face straight to the bed, and all u want to do is staying in the bed instead of talking with others."

"I had a fantastic stay at Pacific House Hostel in Sydney and can honestly say it was one of the highlights of my trip. The hostel has a great atmosphere, very friendly staff, and a real sense of community that makes you feel welcome from the first day. What truly sets Pacific House apart is the active social program they organize. The coastal walk along the beaches was absolutely amazing — stunning ocean views, fresh air, and great company. The walk across the bridge was another unforgettable experience with incredible views of Sydney Harbour and the Opera House. The picnics were also a highlight: beach barbecues with a relaxed vibe, good food, and lots of laughter, as well as simple but lovely sandwich picnics in the Botanical Garden — a perfect way to enjoy the city and meet new people. A huge thank you to the entire team for creating such a warm and fun environment. Special thanks to David from Poland, who ran many of the activities — his energy, friendliness, and great organization made a big difference and truly enhanced the experience. Highly recommended for anyone who wants more than just a place to sleep, but a memorable stay full of activities, new friends, and great memories"

"This place is amazing! Seriously, everything from the location and service to the facilities is top-notch. It's a huge, very professional establishment right across from the Sydney Opera House and super close to the ferry. The only slight inconvenience is that you always encounter stairs on the way to the subway, which can be a bit tiring with luggage. The quad room having its own private bathroom is a big plus. My bunkmate even saw the staff member making up my bed, which was nice. There's a bar on the top floor with live music at night, and the restaurant on the second floor is my dream kitchen! They provide pots, pans, and cutlery, and I guess the 'free' food available is just what previous guests left behind. I honestly can't think of many downsides, though being a bit far from Coles is one minor point. It's also very clean, and the cupboards are convenient."

We booked Marco Polo Motor Inn for 3 nights. The room was very clean and looked like it had been recently refurbished. Queen bed was very comfortable. There was also a 3 seater sofa. Towels were changed daily. TV channels worked fine. Aircon was cold without strange smells. There was a microwave, kettle, plates n bowls, cutlery,, cups n glasses. A mini fridge with freezer and even a cute single slice toaster! Coffee, tea bags n hot chocolate were provided. Parking was secure and ample. Will definitely be back if driving from Gold Coast to Sydney again. It is also walking distance to the train station. A great find! Signage was Marco Polo Motel though and we were slightly confused by it. Reception was great, friendly and helpful.

Wake up! Bondi Beach

ake Up! Bondi Beach is the perfect place to stay if you want to feel the real Bondi lifestyle. The location is unbeatable — right across from the beach, just a few steps to the sand, surf, coastal walk, cafés, and everything happening along the shoreline. Waking up to the sound of waves and watching sunrise from Bondi is something truly special. The hotel/hostel is clean, modern, and well-maintained. My room was comfortable, and even though the space is simple, it had everything I needed for a relaxing stay. The common areas were bright and social, ideal for meeting new people, and the rooftop was my favourite spot — stunning ocean views, perfect for morning coffee or sunset chill. The staff were friendly, helpful, and always approachable. They gave great recommendations for food, activities, and transport, which made exploring Sydney much easier. I really appreciated the relaxed vibe — warm, casual, and welcoming. This place is perfect for travellers who enjoy beach life, surfing, fitness, or just want to experience Bondi like a local. Great location, great value, amazing atmosphere. I would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend Wake Up! Bondi Beach to anyone visiting Sydney.

OK for one night. The hotel is above the pub, which is also very busy in the afternoon. There is also live music there on Sundays until around 9 p.m. Everything is perfectly fine, unless you have room 10 next to the washing machine/dryer and sleep next to the ventilation. Even though drying and washing is not allowed after 9 p.m., it was very annoying. The hotel rooms face the back, so in the morning you also have the noise from the loading area of ​​the supermarket. On the positive side, the room was in a modern condition and the staff were all very nice. The beach is a ten-minute walk away.

I was lucky enough to have my room ready in advance, before 2PM and since my flight arrived early in the morning, that was really nice ! Cathy was also a wonderful person in general, throughout my stay. The room is pretty big, with a sink and a fridge. 👌🏻 The room I had is next to the common area however people weren't too loud, especially in the evening despite it roughly being the dinner time so that was nice. The area is very chill, a few schools and houses around so not loud at night. It is, however, situated on the planes' route and they are pretty low in the sky since it gets close to the airport. But there aren't any at night (around midnight until 6AM I would say) and it's not every 5 minutes either. The sun set pretty early at that time of the year and to me, I felt like the neighborhood lacked lights for people to walk around but it wasn't much of a bother and not something the lodge can change, so just a heads-up to have a small light/enough battery on the phone to use when coming back from your day trip activities.

I like the place in general. Location is good, check-in and check-out are easy. It is near to public transportation, from Convention station like 5 min walking. I stayed in the only female room, and it was very quiet at night, so I had a good sleep. The nice thing for me is breakfast and dinner. Luggage storage is also possible, so all was good.

I would tell the toilet is as per review, yes it is small and narrow but it’s simply worth the price especially when you consider the location (2mins walk to Chinatown station and Haymarket (most cheapest market in Sydney), and measured few stations to Circular Quay and one station to Sydney Central Station! Well the room (pod) condition also nice, even though you can expect the space pod is small but it’s clean and the A/C, electricity and locker works perfectly fine. Will definitely book this hotel again next time if I were a budget traveller.

Pros: Hotel located near bus stop. And there is a public bus direct from Sydney airport to the hotel. Just walk a bit. So cheaper than using the train. Toilet clean, room was big. Worth every penny. Cons: the hotel reception is inside a bar, so as Muslim, I don't feel comfortable going inside a bar to check in. But once you get the room key, you can use alternative entrance which is from 'something like fire exit door' Which have many stairs, but better for me than going inside a bar. Overall 👍👍👍

I needed a cheap place to stay, and overall the hostel was okay, but there are definitely things that need improvement. The room itself was messy, mainly because some guests were taking up a lot of shared space with their belongings on the floor and on top of the lockers. I know this is partly the guests’ responsibility, but in a dorm, there should be better supervision or reminders. The shower was nice, and the kitchen facilities were useful, but the kitchen was not well maintained. There were dirty dishes piling up, clogged sinks full of food, and old worn-out sponges that should be replaced more often. There also needs to be proper cloths for drying dishes and wiping tables, plus somewhere hygienic to hang them. The fridges were also completely full, and it didn’t seem like anyone was checking old food from guests who had already checked out. Someone even removed my food from the fridge and left it on the counter at room temperature for hours, which was really frustrating. Overall, the hostel has potential and the basic facilities are there, but it needs better cleaning, better kitchen organization, more fridge space, and more staff supervision in the shared areas.
