Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    Great location. Very close (5-10 min) walk to the Peace Park and the shopping mall. 5 star customer service. Very good breakfast. The room size are average, very clean and very comfortable beds. Quiet location all provide a safe in an area to lock up luggage. I would stay here again, and I recommend this hotel. We booked 2 rooms and stayed for 3 nights at a very good price, great value for your money.

    We are a family of 5 (admittedly with very little luggage and stayed overnight) and stayed in the room with six bunk beds. We are pleasantly surprised as to how well the space is utilised. The common area (aka not-for-swimming-pool) on the top floor is also interestingly well done. Add the great location and it's really good value.

    Probably one of the best hostels I've ever stayed in. So modern. The bar is fabulous. If I didn't have to leave early I would have loved to have tried their coffee. Such a great, clean and beautiful place. I would absolutely stay again. Shame we couldn't stay longer.

    The capsule/cabin dormitory room was the best I stay in. I was expecting just a bunk bed but got a bit more than that as well. I also like that they have the toilet and the shower in a room together. 4 shower/toilet together in the girl cabin.

    Cheap and cheerful capsule hostel with a great location - right next to the Peace Memorial Park so you can roll out of bed and get straight into sightseeing. They also let you leave your bags there after check-out!
