My Top 9 Hostels in Sydney for 2025

"I found Mad Monkey Bayswater to be a fun, lively hostel with a strong social scene — there’s a party every night, a movie room, yoga classes, a rooftop BBQ, and a basement chill-out zone with pool tables and a PlayStation. It’s surrounded by some of Sydney’s best bars, clubs, and restaurants, making it ideal if you want to party; note there’s an age restriction (guests must be 18–35)." - Matthew Kepnes

Loving my stay at this hostel so far! Been here 3 weeks and I feel like we are all family. The staff are all super friendly and helpful and will assist you with any queries you have. Hannah, the assistant manager, is especially very friendly and helpful. The rooms are clean and quite comfy, I am currently in the 12 bed female dorm and I really like it. The hostel is super social, there are free events every night such as free pasta night. There is also a common area downstairs which a huge couch and tv.

Amazing hostel, with a super friendly staff and really cozy atmosphere! There are some great events, including nights where you get fed- I really liked the wine and cheese night and the pasta night! Plus these events are really good to socialise with other backpackers, I met lots of lovely people playing card games of hanging out in the nice cinema room! Overall a very clean, lively and welcoming hostel, I was very happy with my stay!

A friendly and social hostel in a great location. King's Cross station is just a five minute walk away as well as King's Cross bus stop. You can have a free dinner there twice a week and free cocktails on a Saturday, giving you many opportunities to socialise. There is also the lounge and TV room for when you want to chill. The hostel is constantly being cleaned, and the manager, Millie, and assistant manager, Hannah, ensure the standards are high. I would highly recommend this place!

I’m currently staying in a 6 mixed dorm with my boyfriend, beds are really comfy. They have a tv room where you can play the PS5 or watch movies with your friends. They free events every night like Hot choc and face masks night, pasta night, nacho night and cheese night etc. The staff are very friendly especially Hannah and Mille, they are always there when you need things. I feel very safe and feel like home

Absolutely loved my stay at Mad Monkey Hostel! Everything was great from start to finish. The staff were super friendly and always willing to help with anything I needed. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and had a fun vibe. I met so many awesome people in the common areas, and the social events made it really easy to make friends. The location was perfect, close to everything I wanted to see and do.

This hostel has been great! The atmosphere feels very homey, and the staff is super friendly. They offer free meals twice a week and organize great activities like movie nights and free cocktails on weekends. While the common areas such as the dining room and cinema room are very spacious, the kitchen is a bit cozy, but very clean. The train station is just a 5-minute walk away, and both Coles and Woolworths are only 4 minutes away, as well as the nearby park. I’d recommend this Hostel to everyone, especially to those who are looking forward to be very central and are looking for a nice opportunity to meet new people!

Great location near public transport, grocery stores, coffee shops and some bars. Easy to get to central both by transport and walking. Staff were helpful with local info and encouraged a social hostel with events most evenings. My room was great and the other backpackers were great too, beds a bit squeaky when moving in the night but I'd say good value for money.
