My Top 9 Hostels in Sydney for 2025

"I like Big Hostel as a budget “boutique” option in Surry Hills — it has a roof terrace with beautiful city views, a sundeck with a garden for lounging and BBQing, a large kitchen, and 24/7 free coffee and tea. The rooms are huge and the pillows are super cozy, though the metal bed frames can creak so bring earplugs if you’re a light sleeper; beds have lockers for security. Keep in mind dorms are limited to ages 18–40 (older travelers require private rooms)." - Matthew Kepnes
