City Backpackers HQ

The property itself was fun , clean and overall friendly vibe. The bathrooms were surprisingly very clean considering how many people were to 2 toilets and 2 showers. The bedroom i booked had 6 bunks and an aircon ( though I couldn’t feel it at all) neither could the others in the room I suppose because they left the windows open at night for cool air. The room was really hot . I was luckily able to get 6 hours sleep but by 4:45 when the sun was beaming through the room again I was awake . Too hot . Comfortable bunk considering

The lady at check in helped with my car - she also upgraded my room

good location, near train station, grocery store, walkable to downtown

Everything’s good & cool. I like it.

Best in Brisbane..................................

The facilities such as the bar, pool and free space look good. However my room which was 6 female dormitory was not really good because some people just leave their belongings on the floor and they kept talking till midnight on phone.

Staff was super helpful, check-in simple, and the place had some really great social opportunities (bar, pool, games, etc). Only complaint were the cockroaches found in the bathroom and hanging out on the fridge. Eek!

Good location

Amazing for long term stays. The private rooms could be in their own area away from group rooms but otherwise it was lovely. The staff was fantastic. Only negative is the parking. Most of our days we had to be up super early and leave early as between 8-9 you can’t get out.

Not a good spot if you're a weary traveler trying to catch a nights rest. Twenty minutes after checking in and being explained the "rules" I get into my room, someone from hotel staff knocks on my door says "room check" and barges in. They see me laying on the bed and leave immediately . This was at 11 am . After a twelve hour flight I wanted to crash. Your privacy is not of their concern.
