Great location right in the heart of Katoomba shopping and restaurant district. Easy walk from train station. Buses to echo point are a 2 min short walk away. You can also walk to echo point (30mins). YHA rooms are clean. Building and facilities are a little dated and could do with a upgrade.

Average hostel in a gorgeous historic building
Reasonably priced and very central. Good breakfast, but extortionately priced by student standards ($12 I think). I couldn’t afford it so brought some small groceries from the supermarket. Staff were friendly, but a bit checked out. Could definitely use a deep cleaning as they smell like a locker room. Bathrooms were reasonably clean.

Charming old lodge
Generally clean and comfortable hostel housed in a very old historic 19th century building, which of course shows signs of its age with creaking floors throughout. The building itself is beautiful and definitely has a lot of character and charm. Pros: Very central, less than a 10 minute walk from the train station, and only one block from the bus to Echo Point & the Three Sisters. Cons? Expensive breakfast for a hostel, and no free tea/coffee (which unfortunately is the norm in Australia). Diverse clientele of all ages. Common areas were clean, inviting, but the dorm rooms could definitely use some refurbishment and smelled of sweat. Overall, a reasonably comfortable stay and I would consider it for a repeat visit.

I visited YHA Katooma with my now wife 10 years ago had better memory back then. The deco of the place did not change much and feeling a bit dated. As I am now older, I am expecting a bit more comfort, such as air con and bar fridge which is missing from YHA. Also, cleanliness could have been better as the room did not get cleaned if stayed for multiple days.

Very, very clean. Staff were all helpful and lovely. The building has a few little things that show its age, however you expect that with the age of the building. I felt warm, clean and safe during my stay. Would definitely return.
