I stayed at Bounce in June with a few of my girlfriends, and we had an amazing experience! Our flight landed at 6am, and we didn't want to have to hall our luggage around, but check in wasn't until 2pm. We went in to Bounce, talked to the friendly staff and they let us store our luggage in the staff... More

Going to Sydney, I was very apprehensive about staying in a hostel because I thought it would be dirty, loud and I'd be worried about my things getting stolen. I was 100% wrong when it comes to Bounce. The rooms are cleaned on a daily basis, the bathroom is kept clean, you are given massive lockers (bring your own lock... More

I stayed here on the June long weekend and let me say my experience here was less than pleasant. Firstly, there was no indication on the hostel's website that one should bring their own towels and locks for the lockers when staying here. Towels were $14 to hire from reception and locks a further $7. I had to go out... More

We stayed in a 6 bed dorm for one night, and the room was lovely, spacious and clean! The communal areas are great and there is a lovely view of the city from the rooftop terrace. My only criticism would be that it should offer free wifi as you pay enough for the actual room but otherwise it's a great... More

I chose this hostel specifically because it is in Central Station and I needed to catch an early flight in the morning. It is literally right across the street from the train station, which essentially can get you anywhere in Sydney. There was a lot of hype around this hostel because it is voted number one in Australia. It definitely... More

I had a good first hostel experience at Bounce. The hostel is very clean and has all the facilities, comfy beds and big lockers. All the activities in the evenings are good fun:) However, the hostel is quite quiet but I guess it depends on the guests. The location is also very good, close to Central Station. The rooftop terrace... More

This is a weird hostel to review as there are 2 sides to my experience! The hostel itself is great, the tooms are clean, beds comfortable, showers are good, there's a tv area with bean bags to chill with and the roof terrace is such a great feature, had some lovely nights up there. Ok bad side- the staff. All... More

Bounce is a great hostel to stay in if you're looking for a slightly quieter stay, getting away from your typical loud backpackers. When I arrived, it was before check-in time, but the girl at the desk struggled to tell me when I would actually be able to check in. Once I finally arrived in my room, it was incredibly... More

I was worried about staying in a dorm room. I stayed in an 8 bed dorm with an ensure bathroom directly across the hall. The whole hotel was very clean, nice carpets, modern furniture and trendy common areas. My bed was comfortable, I had a personal night light and double PowerPoint in my locker.
