Hostel The Shiralee

107 Brisbane Street, 6003 Perth, Australia – Great location - show map

A kitchen or kitchenette at The Shiralee

Lock in a great price for The Shiralee – rated 8.4 by recent guests!

to get started.

The place feels safe and like a home so really great for solo travellers. Made a few friends and met new people, which was nice. It's clean for a hostel and even the hostelers make it a point to clean after themselves. The breakfast and pasta are definitely helpful if you're travelling on a budget! The bus stand is right outside. Damian and other staff (couldn't interact much) are really friendly!

India

Hotspot for young europeans. This place is for people who likes it quiet at night and clean. There is always somebody cleaning something.

Dominik

Switzerland

Really good location, very clean, friendly staff, good ambience, delicious breakfast and excellent facilities like restrooms, internet and kitchen. I would absolutely recommend staying in this accommodation.

Robson

Good! Everyone is very friendly. Here is comfortable:) We can get freemeal sometimes.

I have been traveling alone for about a month and this is the first place that felt like a community instead of just a bunch of backpackers. Charlie, the owner, apparently travels to other hostels in other countries to get ideas of how to improve and it really shows.

Very relaxing homelee feel to the place. The owner charlie is a real cool dude goes above and beyond to accomadate us. The BEST hostel iv stayed in thus far.

Andrew

Australia

Absolutely love the staff, especially the super efficient and welcoming German man who mans reception as well as does a fantastic job cleaning. This visit I stayed in the six bed dorm which was more spacious than the four bed. The location is close to CBD, Chinatown, a great wine shop, Hyde Park, and Source for coffee and nice food. Very well stocked kitchen which in general is very clean except for the guests who choose not to wash their dishes. Lucky enough to be there for a free dinner hosted by the owner, Charlie, who manned the bbq and provided plenty of chicken, veg patties, salad, and cole slaw. Charlie, staff, and volunteers did a splendid job prepping, serving, and cleaning up....thank you for an awesome time. Met a lot of great people which made my stay very enjoyable and plan to return in two weeks!

The Shiralee is cozy hostel north of the CBD of Perth but still within walking distance. It is located close to William St. and Northbridge, as well as several bars, cafes, a grocery store, and the Perth Cultural Centre. I stayed in 4-bed female dorm, and each person had their own storage space. The overall layout of the hostel is nice as well, because everything you need is right at the heart of the building. In the evening, it's quiet, since the surroundings are purely residential, so if you want to get a decent sleep, this is the place. Also, it's quite clean for a hostel that is usually completely booked with 50 people.

One of the male staff is loud and attention seeker.Always flirting and trying to be romantic in common areas with female travellers.This really make other people uncomforable.Do it outside the hostel or in your room buddy.Please dont make female travellers uncomfortable and unsafe.Disgusting!!!! Many of them are noticing it and complaining about it.
Charlie and other staffs are excellent.Charlie is always helpful.

The bathrms were pretty clean for the amount of people that stayed. It was cosy clean, and close to the city and public transport. My rm with 4 females had all U needed and plenty power points everywhere. Nice lit entrance at night and gd security if you come in early or late at night. Well recommended

“Insecurity”
- • Leisure trip

A boy entered in our room at midnight with a key, making noise, yelling and singing in the corridor till 3.30pm. An envelope with my name, my room number and room key was at reception during the night (I arrived to the hostel at 6pm but staff thought that I didn't do check-in). During the night, there aren't staff members at the hostel, just cameras that nobody goes to watch. After talking with Damian (the manager), he just said that its a hostel so they cannot control if people come drunk or drugged to the hostel and also that it was the first time that happens in one year that he was working there..... We made a formal complaint but nobody came to us.
It's clean and good located.

Different people working in the reception all the time so they don't really know anything except check ins. Also there was a little situation with 2 guys booking female dorm because mixed where full and nicely Charlie asked is it okay if the guys stay one night and change room in the morning. Well guys stayed and since Charlie wasn't there nobody knew anything. Gladly guy in our dorm was really quiet, other female dorm weren't that lucky I guess. Otherwise I didn't care but female dorm is little bit more expensive so would be nice to get what you pay for. But still, one of mu favourite hostels!
I really loved Shiralee. Charlie is amazing and tries everything that people would have nice stay.
