Hostel The Village Melbourne
167 Franklin Street, 3000 Melbourne, Australia – Great location - show map – Subway Access
I stayed in over 20 hostels last year and this one ranked among one of the nicest in the world for me. The rooms, while large, had double air conditioning, sturdy beds, and good/secured luggage storage. There was a nice social ambiance, with many common areas also. For the price and location, I was shocked. The only downside was a rather long (understaffed) line for check-in but that was relatively minor given the rest of the experience.
United States of AmericaIt’s a place to stay and meet backpackers from all over the world. Many facilities to use in the hostel, rooms are big, bed is soft and comfortable.
TaiwanSo much fun! Very lively hostel. I estimate 350-500 people staying there. Great location, can access everyone Melbourne has to offer.
United States of AmericaGood facilities and social areas. My private room was big and clean. Wi-fi good. Laundry machines available. Big kitchen. Bar. Elevators good although sometimes slow. Location was ok. Good value.
United States of AmericaEverything, staff all super friendly and helpful. Amazing facilities with the best kitchen and common areas in Melbourne. Free pool, ping pong, board games. Best karaoke night in Melbourne and cheap drinks in the bar and nightclub.
IrelandThought the value for money was great, so close to the tram stop in the free tram zone and right next to the Queen Victoria markets. Very large hostel but if you went to the organized social events you could Meet people. Free pool tables in the lobby
United States of AmericaIt's very clean with a clean beddings....lovely...
AustraliaThe hostel is well located and the bedroom I stayed (8 beds) had a good size and a big locker for my backpack. The kitchen also was spacious. Travelers there has a good vibe.
BrazilGood location with a large lounge area and nice amenities
CanadaPerfect location. Very clean & well-maintained. Awesome facilities- common rooms on each floor with kitchen. En-suite bathrooms. Downstairs is a bar and they play all the sporting matches- so it’s a great atmosphere. For the price, it’s a steal!
