Recensioni su Nomads St Kilda

It’s was very pleasant stay and the buffet beast was a no brainer

Hostel that is a great location but has odd rules that no outside food or drinks are allowed in your room

Best hostel in Melbourne

Nice and Easy check in staff are friendly and helpful, rooms aren't huge but for the price, can't complain!!

Absolutely love this backpackers. Amazing Environment great staff that are always smiling

Fabulous stay from the happy friendly welcoming staff Our private room with balcony was awesome ( so better than the apartment we had come from ) the room was clean spacious and we slept so well Thou this hostel is for the young ( being in my 50’s ) it was wonderful to see all the activities and fun times everyone was having Would stay again

It’s a cold winters morning in July and you wake up with a hangover from Big Willy’s Monday Night Bingo at the bar downstairs the night before. You can’t remember what happened but there’s smudged red lipstick on your cheek and $400 cash in a bucket beside your bed. You get up to take a shower in your 8 bed dorm room’s en-suite, making sure you’re the first in there because there’s nothing worse than using the bathroom after 7 other people first thing in the morning. After getting dressed you go down to Ackland Street just round the corner from the hostel and get the best coffee of your life from one of the many famous cake shops. It’s a beautiful day and the air is crisp so you take a walk down the beach to see the penguins by the pier and admire the city skyline. On your way back you stop at Woolies for groceries and cry at the thought of paying over $10 for three bloody capsicums (they’re called peppers to the rest of the world). You walk into the hostel kitchen to make your food but there’s no room to cook since half of the hobs don’t work. Not to mention you’d also have to clean everything before you use it because apparently no one has been taught how to wash a saucepan before. Since there’s also no room in the fridge or cupboards to store your food, you go to put it in your room (at least the cockroaches can’t get it there). Suddenly you panic because you can’t find your key card, then you remember that it’s on an app. Finally a useful app! Eventually you say f*** it, let’s get a McDonald’s. On the out the door you stop at reception and say “I’d like to extend my stay please…” You’re glad you booked Base St Kilda.

Great stay, chilled enviroment and easy to get around

A lot of the reviews put this as a social hostel but I don't think this was the case. I stayed in a 6-bed shared dorm with bathroom and most of the people in the room were workers/long term guests (They had been there for 3+ months). It felt like I was living in their house and I didn't feel very welcome. It also meant that it was very messy and so couldn't be cleaned thoroughly. The bathroom was also very dirty and there was mould on the ceiling.

All the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful for literally anything. I was new to the country from Canada on a working holiday visa and they were so kind to give me pointers for phone plans, health care, opening bank accounts, booking trips north of melb. Quentin from the front desk most notably was my favorite. He was the one who checked me in and out during my stay. He made me feel so comfortable and at home. Really recommend this place for an affordable stay and a place to meet people from all over the world. So perfect for someone new to the country and trying to find their bearings.

the BEST hostel ever if you wanna meet people and have fun:) very social crowd and you can make such great friends it's amazing × boozy bingo is a must and the guy who hosts it with the cool leggings is a legend :)

Only positive was the location, decently comfy beds, and good sized lockers. A lot of the staff were unfriendly, and the party culture made it so empty during the day. The shower was either freezing cold or lukewarm. Incredibly noisy place to stay - even on the third floor you can hear everything until 1am, including people shouting in the hallways. Breakfast was awful. Alright if you literally only want a party, but otherwise go elsewhere.

First hostel I have been in where no charging points, staff rude, it really is a free for all here..

Nicole and Keri made the experience lush and food was to die for only complaint is that they are leaving us and it really makes me want to cry but we have to look at the positives in life not the negatives so 10/10 experience and 20/10 for looks
