Lock in a great price for Fremantle Prison YHA – rated 9 by recent guests!

to get started.

Location is very special, common areas spacious and well equipped.

Lisagu, Australia

Good location close to the centre of the town. Quiet at night, all staff spoken to were friendly and very helpful. Excellent that they have a luggage room and will let you shower on the day of departure if you have a late flight, just have to hire towels for a couple of dollars.

Epcot99, United Kingdom

Great facilities. Lovely helpful staff. Unique experience staying in a cell.

Shaun, United Kingdom

Staffs are friendly, location is great, right next to the prison and short walk to the Fremantle market, and Cappuccino Strip. Dining area and toilets are clean, many activities should you want to join. Value for money!

Wanjun708, Singapore

A+ accommodation staff were amazing so helpful and kind, the facilities were comfortable and very inviting. Will stay again and recommend to others.

Tara, Australia

The beds are very average,not money for value there, need up grade

David, Australia

I appreciated the YHA team member who saw to my needs when I arrived almost close to midnight, thanks. The room was clean.

Mei, Australia

Facillities are clean and pretty new, great kitchen, nice atmosphere in the old prison building, really nice staff.

Marcel, Germany

Staff and people were great Great events Met lots of people

Megan, Australia

Most people go there simply for an experience of staying in a prison, but even apart from that this hostel has a great atmosphere. The staff is very friendly and the whole place has a relaxed feel. They have nice facilities that suits most needs (kitchen, laundromat on premises). There are options of separate and shared rooms. My kids also appreciated the ping pong table

The room smelled musty. I was not able to sleep properly because the floor creaked when someone walked past my room which was close to the kitchen.
I appreciated the YHA team member who saw to my needs when I arrived almost close to midnight, thanks. The room was clean.
