Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    I loved my stay at Apollo Bay Backpackers. The owner was very friendly and had great suggestions for things to do and places to eat in Apollo Bay. He even joined us for a beer in the common area one night. The rooms are nice and the beds are comfy. The washrooms are very clean and modern. The kitchen facilities are maintained and well-stocked, and I like that there is a BBQ on site as well. Really fantastic hostel in a quiet location.

    Great location, great communal areas, two extremely well equipped and clean kitchens. Short walk to the beach, great rooftop terrace and garden. Everything clean. One of the best hostels I've been to in Australia!

    A super chic hostel. The kitchen and lounges were well equipped and very comfortable. A highlight is the roof terrace with a view of the ocean. The bunk beds were a bit wobbly, but everything else was really great. Perfect location and to discover the Great Ocean Road.
