Overall Ratings & Reviews Cairns City Backpackers Hostel

Location excellent close to centre and public transport. Staff very helpful building and facilities are rather tired I enjoyed my stay and very good value for money.

Helpful, happy staff. Ill be back.

was a great stay a fridge in the room would have made it much better but was good anyway

Do not book through lastminute as there was no accommodation and they still have not replied there is no number to call do not use this web site

It was very good value for money and the ground staff were superb

All was good, except the Room smelled as if someone urinated in the sink.

I liked our room, it was spacious and we have own shower in the room. Kitchen was okay and all machines worked. Staff was super kind and helpful!

Close to town, great location, great staff and nice atmosphere

Cairns city backpackers was the most welcomed and comfortable I felt in any backpackers in cairns. One of the guys who works there, Tripp, was so welcoming, helpful and knowledgeable about the area and overall a great guy to chat to. With two shared kitchens and plenty of shared bathrooms and shower rooms dotted around, I never found myself waiting to grab a shower or use kitchen facilities. Met the loveliest travellers here too and have lots of fond memories playing board games and having a few beers with other travelling folk. Would come back in a heartbeat. Five minute walk into town, 15 minute walk to esplanade and lovely lagoon swimming area. Also check out down under pool bar for great beer, free pool and a good laugh.

Close to shops and city. Staff friendly and helpful. Rooms were clean. Shared toilet was always clean. I have stayed here twice the communal areas (tv room, kitchen, laundry, outside area) cleanliness all depends on the backpackers there at the time

Staff were great. Atmosphere great. Property cleaned every morning great. Loved the rooms and access to amenities.

Ok but needs some entertainment like a tv ot some sort of games room eg pool table

The pool is very small, but clean. We had a double room which had just a bed in it. The room was hot, dirty and we were glad moving out again. Staff is very nice.

hostel was in desperate need of repair.I could not recommend this hostel to anyone

we enjoyed

Lovely hostel, close to town excellent price clean kitchen and showers lots of nice places to sit outside

Staff and other guests were friendly. Unfortunately the blind did not fully cover the window and there was no curtain, so it was not possible to shut out the outside light. It was not possible either to shut out the noise of the air conditioning unit from the building next door. Overall though, value for money.

Worst place I have ever stayed in.Towels smelt disgusting.pillows were mouldy.bottles and rubbish under bed.sink had shaven facial hair and mould.would not sty there if they paid me.Do yourself a favour and stay well clear of this health hazard!

The restrooms were dirty and just one shower for many people. Everything was small. And the toiletts...i dont wanna talk about that. It was horrible to stay there. The room was realy small. Only place for the bed. I dont know how the other rooms are but it was not good. For this money I had different better hostels. But it was quiet, because it is not close to the city.

Facilities: Typical; Value: Economical; Service: Friendly and helpful;
