Dougies Backpackers Resort

Super endroit! Le personnel est adorable

We had an absolutely fantastic experience at this hostel. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, going above and beyond to book our transfer and answer all our questions. We would definitely revisit one of our favourite hostels we’ve ever stayed in.

très agreable, et le personnel est vraiment sympa

Spacious rooms with lockable cupboards. Nice communal areas with a pool and bar. Kitchen can get quite busy and wasn’t that clean, same with the bathrooms. Locations is really nice, just out of town so helps to have a car and they have free parking which is great! Overall good hostel and would stay again!

Great, nothing to complain about. I had a private room with my partner and we were very happy. Simply and friendly hostel. Clean and good showers. And cheap beer ! Loved it.

You pay for what you get I suppose, it’s very basic accom

The hostel has a very cool vibe with a nice bar and pool area. All of the staff were very friendly. The downside is that there are lots of long term residents and I was put in a room with 3 long term females. The room was an absolute tip, they never locked it and there were many ants. They weren't the friendliest to me as a short term stayer and I think even used my bed as a sofa moving my own belongings which I had to recover from their mess.

Ingesamt in Ordnung, Sauberkeit lässt aber zu wünschen übrig. Herrentoiletten werden selten bzw. nicht gründlich gereinigt, Küche nicht sehr sauber und die Schwämme sehen so aus als wären sie seit 4 Wochen im Einsatz. In den Mehrbettzimmern lassen sich nur kleine Fächer in den Schränken abschließen, der Schlüssel dazu passt aber in alle Fächer des Zimmers - Sicherheit gleich Null. Das Personal ist freundlich und die Bar ist gut. Ich würde aber trotzdem nicht wiederkommen.

honestly the best hostel I've been to in Australia

We loved our stay at dougies! Amazing outer area, and then 10/10 staff people. So nice and welcoming and extremely helpful

Great hostel spent Christmas there in a private room, good kitchen facilities, friendly staff and only a short walk to the main town

Love this place so much! So homie, people there are just so nice! Can’t wait to come back💛

Location out of city center, facilities fine but hostelroom felt like a prison room lol. Very dark. Loads of red ants everywhere, found them in my bags until weeks after. Overall chill and laid-back vibe, kitchen was huge and there's a bar. Bathrooms were fine.

Stayed here for two nights. Both nights people came in late and left early before reception opened. They made their beds so reception didn’t know they were used. When I asked reception about it, the girl literally said “let’s call it a dream” as if I was dreaming. My clothing and towel that I had in the room were stolen as well. I then watched them rent the bed out a guy who is certainly going to be sleeping in someone else’s filth. Would never recommend this place.

Great location. Staff were nice. Kitchen was dirty, needed to pay $2/day for wifi and the wifi was not working my first 2 days there. The locker in my room also had no working key for it so I was told “too bad” for not being able to lock my items. Staff were really nice and obviously felt bad about the locker and the there were electric ants in the hostel and rooms (tiny red biting/stinging ants) as I got multiple bites from these little red ants.

My FAVOURITE hostel in Australia! This hostel has an awesome vibe, movie nights, open mic, DJs, there’s always something to get involved with, great kitchen, comfy spots to hang or hideaway in a hammock. You can grab an e-scooter into town or it’s just a short walk! Living the Australian dream here!🇦🇺🐨😎
