The staff was really kind and friendly. He suggested us to get an updated room. We could have a great time in Hobart!
I'm a solo traveler and stayed 5 nights. Location is great. The staff is very helpful. My shared room with private bathroom was very comfy. Simply recommended
Personally, I wouldn’t book unless you’re desperate! I’m usually very tolerant but this wasn’t great!
Some of the rooms are SO loud until 11pm due to the pub / bar below with live music. YHA do not tell you this!
The kitchen is very small with only 5 bar stools to sit at (again they don’t tell you this!).
The living room is on another floor at the other side of the building, very dirty and run down, not a social space! During my stay there were towels all over the floors and stairs due to wet carpet and it was such a trip hazard. The washing facilities are closed 10-2 for staff only.
It’s the most dirty and run down YHA I’ve stayed at. Not again!
The only positive was the nice member of staff who helped me change room due to the noise. Although to change rooms I was “downgraded” to a larger dorm and was not refunded the difference
Quiet for the middle of the city.
Bed could of been better quality.Not very comfortable. Great location for exploring the city.
Reasonably priced for double private room.
It was a good deal forvthe price. It was three of us and we had acropm with the bathroom. Location was also very good- right in the center of Hobart, in a close proximity to lots of attractions
An overnight stay, YHA Hobart was well located, short walk from the airport bus, across the road from a great bakery for quick breakfast and offered a good rate for a Friday night stay. Room was simple but squeaky clean with tea and coffee provided.
Excellent stay option given the low price. Property was very clean, including the lobby, kitchen and bathrooms. Staff were very helpful. Property is near a main road, so some noise during the night but nothing too bad.
Clean and well kept. Not very social of a hostel, but the location was great!

Well located and good price-quality ratio. The staff is really friendly. The fact that you can have a whole bathroom for yourself feels luxurious. Just a couple of considerations:
The bathrooms get flooded easily due to bad drainage but the staff was always on top of it all the time. Beware there is no elevator (though I’m certain is mentioned on their page) so if you have to carry your luggage you might have to do it through a couple set of stairs and fire doors. The amenities might be a little under the scale of people it can allocate, but at least during my stay, it was never an issue.
