Loved my three night stay in this hostel! Im usually quite critical of hostels in big cities but I loved this one. The free breakfast is excellent, a good choice of cereals and toast. The kitchen is very well equipped and the common area is really well set out with a big TV. Its fantastic that wifi is free and... More

the best selling pt of this hostel is location. 5 minds away from the Central Station which is well connected to all types of transportation. next, it provides free wifi in common room. Staff is friendly n helpful. Room is small yet tidy n clean. the price is reasonable in Sydney. if you are on budget, it's a choice. More

This is my first holiday trip to Australia together with my cousin brothers and sisters. There were seven of us. As we know that we will be out all day, we just wanted a place that is cheap and convenient to sleep and take bath. After reading on some of the reviews on Trip Advisor, we decided on Big Hostel....

Good hostel in a central location for a good price. Rooms were spacious, bathrooms were clean. Free breakfast had a good selection and the free Internet was a major plus.

My Son travelled to Australia for his gap year, he ended his trip in Sydney staying in the Big Hostel. I have to say he loved it from the word go, a really clean, secure and cosy hostel. Any problems my son had with anything the staff at Big Hostel were there to help. Personally when I had to contact... More

I stayed in a few hostels on my trip down the East Coast and was a little concerned about the prospect of booking a hostel for Sydney - where I was anticipating spending more than a few nights. A friend that I had met travelling knew someone who lived in Sydney so asked them for a recommendation and Big Hostel... More

I have stayed in 3 different hostels in Sydney city centre but this was my favourite. We stayed in a family room which was very spacious and clean, as was the en-suite. The room also had air con which is hard to find in a hostel when you're on a budget. The room had a television and dvd player which... More
