Hostels in Victoria, Australia

The hostel was perfectly located because it was waking distance to all the restaurants and shops. The front desk gave a perfect recommendation for places to eat and things to do. Would definitely go back.

This space is so good for the price. It is clean and the room I got was very large (queen room with double bed). It has a surf, bohemian vibe so you feel like you’re overseas at some friend’s beach shack. Compared to other hostels it is very clean, it smells so good in the building! It is definitely not new, so it has the rustic charm of older Melbournian buildings. Be mindful this is not a hygiene issue but the general style of the building. This St Kilda Roamer has a rotating staff that really cares about residents and put in time to understand their journey. The team is really relaxed, and will try to help out. I always see staff cleaning and keeping up with housekeeping. However if you’re looking for something like a hotel experience it’s unfair to compare this space as it is designed more for diverse casual travellers. In your private rooms, you get kettle, tea, coffee, hotel sheets, towels, shampoo, conditioner, body wash.  It feels like a co-share cafe space at the front so it’s got a nice nomad vibe. It is better than the city location which gets more traffic and feels very crowded. If you’re looking for a place to explore Melbourne St Kilda is a great hot spot for travellers as internationals hangout here! More hostels and co-work spaces should try to build on this Roamer St Kilda location as it is not too crowded and feels like you’re going to a friends open beach shack home.   I would love to stay longer as there are heaps to explore in the area and it feels very comfortable to stay here.

Good price, close to tourist attractions Various restaurants near train station I like that there are curtains for each bed. Even if you sleep in a shared room, you still have privacy. very good. I would like to recommend staying here.

Great value option to stay in Melbourne, confortable rooms, shared bathrooms but they have been renovated recently, shared small kitchen too. We enjoyed a lot our stay. The area is very good, very well conected with downtown. 100% recomended. Very friendly, welcoming and helpful staff.

Female room had private curtains across the beds and individual power points and bed lights. Room was unexpectedly quiet. Staff were efficient at check in. Shared bathrooms were clean. Perfect location.

The biggest and perhaps the only major problem with this hostel is the noise from within the building. Great noise reduction for outside activities, but the nature of the building is flawed, so the amount of noise you will hear from the common room open corridor which every room faces is very loud. Other than this, it is quite a good hostel, one of the better ones you could stay at. I was in a private room which had some decent amenities, however the pillows were quite lumpy haha. The other guests were quite disrespectful of rules unfortunately, not considering others in the kitchen with cleanliness etc. Staff are 10/10 amazing! I want to take them all home with me 😂

Great location just a five minute drive to Woolies. The room is very clean with plenty of supplies like plates, bowls, tablewares, cotton swabs... The owner is pretty kind as well. Affordable and quality accommodations.

The manager was very nice, the hotel rooms are located at 2/F but he is willing to help with the luggage carry even without request. The hotel location is fantastic, only 20-30 mins to Melbourne central (one tram only after you get the skybus from airport as well). supermarket, restaurant, cafe, gelato shop around as well. Clean, big room, nice toilet&restroom, nice kitchen, nice laundry. Highly recommend that hotel, definitely my priority choice if I come to Melbourne again. The only bad side is the room at 2/F that you have to carry your stuff up and down if you buy lots of things. And watch out especially in rainy day as it’s a metal stair.

Great for stopover or budget conscious traveller as location is great, near railway station, restaurants, supermarkets, etc. Well managed but apparently little to no interaction from staff. Believe it would be great if staff is more proactive in nurturing relationships with guests so as to give it more life and meaning. Just a suggestion but overall, value for money.

It was comfortable and nice that it was a hostel but had a private bathroom in the room! It was close to the beach and had various facilities so it would be good for a long-term stay.
