HI - Sydney - Railway Square YHA Hostel

Amazing
I loved this hostel. The staff was great; the place was extremely well located; the facilities were modern, new, hip, and accessible. The kitchen and fridges were clean. The beds were comfortable. It was just such a great place. Honestly I could have and would have stayed there for a lot longer.

Liked it
Lovely hostel. The option to sleep in a carriage is interesting. The trains did not wake me up. Enough space, close to the station, and very local. Nice facilities, clean! Why not staying here?! A bit more expensive than other hostels, but i think it's worth the money. A bit sterile maybe because of the size. Convenience yourself!

This hostel is great. located at Central Railways station it is in a great spot. the rooms and building is kept very clean and everything is fairly new. I stayed in a four-bed doom and found that good, but it didn't have any air conditioning, which was a surprise. It has a nice lounge area and a small swimming pool. bathrooms were nice and clean.

I've not stayed in a hostel for at least five years but i needed a cheap overnight option for Sydney without the cost of a hotel price. I was extremely surprised with the standard of this hostel -- great location, was very clean, the rooms were a bit small (four-bed train carriage), but they had great beds and decent-sized lockers. The bathrooms were spotless and had great showers. In all -- i had no complaints with this hostel.

This is a really cool place. Good kitchen if you want to cook -- and not too busy as there are so many good local options for eating out! Excellent location, real character. Yes there is train noise but that is good to get you up and about sight-seeing. Bathrooms clean and the decor is funky.

This is one of the most awesome hostels I have stayed in! It's super clean, and has a great atmosphere. I found the reception staff exceptional. Really friendly and helpful. The train carriages are a cool gimmick. These guys are setting the bar for backpacking in Sydney!

This hostel is clean and in a great location. However I was woken up several times throughout the whole early morning due to the loud trains.

The location of this hostel is excellent and I found the staff helpful and approachable. The facilities were excellent and I found the railway station theme and atmosphere engaging — despite having been awoken by the 4:30 a.m. train to Liverpool, which took off from the platform next to the converted railway carriage I was sleeping in! All you have to do is roll back over, you know! Recommended

This hostel was really good. The rooms are clean, tidy and comfortable, with lockers. The bathrooms are very clean, too. The hostel was cool even on hot days and I got a really good sleep even with an outside room.

This place had clean, good facilities, but most of the staff were unhelpful. The manager is rude and doesn't treat guests properly! The atmosphere is unfriendly and sterile! As for the outside rooms, if you don't want to sleep stay here!! I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone. In fact, I'd tell people to avoid it at all costs!
