The Village Hostel Canberra

The location is great, just a 10-minute walk from the bus hub, and everything is very clean. This is the first hostel I’ve stayed at where the cleaner works at night to tidy up the common room. The room had plenty of space for everyone. I stayed here for 2 nights and booked an 8-bed female dorm. When I checked in at 1 pm, I was assigned to a 4-bed dorm on the 2nd floor. At first, I was the only one there, but a man arrived at 10 pm. I checked with reception, and they apologized for the mistake and moved me to a 4-bed female dorm on the 1st floor. I felt uncomfortable because I was getting ready to sleep and didn’t expect to share a room with a man, as I had booked a female dorm. Moving all my belongings after unpacking was also inconvenient. My second room was still a 4-bed female dorm, even though I had booked an 8-bed dorm. I’m not sure why this happened, but I wanted to share my experience to help the hostel avoid similar issues in the future.

The staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating. From check-in to checkout, they ensured everything went smoothly.

I stayed here before my visa appointment. Room was not full, it was quiet enough to sleep and they helped me print out some documents. Great location

Excellent central location Clean room and bathroom I booked through Trip and a third party agency sent my booking request through slightly incorrectly but the staff at the hostel helped me find a solution

The Best location eventhough the village is in.the middle of renovations....

Excellent choice for solo travelers and flexible options.
