Pretty good for a private room at a backpackers. We were up high with cute window seat and view. My partner thought it smelled weird with strange vibes, but I was pretty happy, room was cute, toilet and showers were separate but private and lockable.it definitely a quirky place but was still quite and reasonably clean.

All hostels in Katoomba

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's 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 little more.

Great location, very walkable to and from aside from a minor hill directly outside the lodge. The community-lodge style felt very welcoming and friendly, and I loved being able to interact with the other travellers. The room was very clean and cozy, and very warm despite the freezing winter months, and felt secure and safe to stay in.

I adored this YHA! It's one of the best hostels I stayed in in Australia. It's in a beautiful building with a big kitchen, big common room and nice garden. I booked a queen room which was great price-quality. The YHA is about 10-15 min walk from the station and about 15-20 min walk from the three sisters. Great location to di some hiking, or to just hide out from the fog and rain with a good book. Staff is great and they offer a very nice breakfast buffet

It is a mixture of hotel and youth hostel, the vibe is a lot more peaceful than other youth hostels, which I prefer. Plenty of seats in the lounge for you to rest or get work done. Good location, right in the middle of Katoomba town, close to supermarkets, cafes and restaurants. Free parking spaces at the back.

Room was clean & comfortable with heating that we could control that was quick & effective. Good size bathroom with towels provided. Safe & secure with security doors around the property. Surprisingly quiet after 10pm for a hostel. Large comfortable communal areas & kitchen with plenty of fridge storage.

The best hostel I've ever been so far! Very homey and cozy. I could have seen that the owner really cares about the environment from many little things. Handmade cakes and cookies, free tea and coffe. What else can I say? Just magic!
