About your stay

  • 8th April - 28th August 2024 | Extensive refurbishment* is taking place across this property, including Ground floor, Level 1, private & co-living rooms, communal bathrooms, ensuite rooms and corridors. During this time there will be delays with lifts and the car park will be unavailable to guests. We apologise for any inconvenience and thank you for your patience.

*The above works will be completed in a staged approach during the refurbishment timeline. When an area is being renovated, guest access will be limited to minimise disruption. All loud noise, including demolition, will take place between 9am-6pm to ensure regular hours of sleep are not interrupted. Dates are subject to change. If you have any concerns about your stay please contact our reservations team: stay@yha.com.au / 1800 942 386.
