Reviews of YHA Sydney Harbour

  • "This hostel feels like a fancy hotel! Staff are so friendly, patient and helpful. It has a wonderful cafe and large kitchen and dining area. As an extra plus, the rooftop patio offers views of the opera house and bridge. Folks of all ages stay here, so we were very comfortable." - Dot
  • "Great YHA hostel with the best location in Sydney (in my opinion), with a rooftop view of the Harbour Bridge and opera house - wow! I traveled solo and it was easy to meet other travelers thanks to the social events, e.g. YHA trivia night. The room was nice and clean, the bed comfy, and the lounge was really nice to hang out in. I chose this hostel for its location, and it lived up to my expectations! Would recommend." - Aurora
  • "The update has vastly improved our experience. Code for room entry, new furnishings and booths, cafe menu, plus ease of checkin." - Ros
