Come and find out why travellers voted United Backpackers Australia's best hostel at the Adventure Travel Awards!

It's no secret we have the best location in town right opposite Flinders Street Station and only opening in 2013 we offer you brand new facilities, heaps of sweet spaces including our funky basement bar and most importantly great value for money. 

Our hostel is full of personality with Melbourne's laneway culture, funky décor and quirky art throughout. 

All this is served up with a great atmosphere, amazing staff, cool events, top notch security and the best pillows in town!
