Really loved this hostel - it's clean, friendly and fun. We (2 female travellers) stayed in a 4-bed mixed dorm with a couple. The rooms were simple and clean and there was plenty of space to cook, eat and chill out in the communal areas. Lots of evening activities and other friendly travellers - so good if you're on your...

My wife and I stayed in a shared 2 person room. The room had a refrigerator and an air conditioner included in it. The air conditioner was only $1 for 3 hours of use. At first we thought it was expensive, but the 3 hours seemed to be a long time and was well worth it after spending all day... More

I love this place. And the people who work there. John, Kerri, Helen and the rest of the team go more than that extra mile to ensure that all guests have an amazing experience when visiting far North Queensland. From the second you arrive there and check in you'll know you've made the best choice. Not only is the place... More

Just spent two nights here. It's a brilliant hostel. The guys in reception are so friendly and helpful with everything even any of your forwarding travelling plans. The hostel has a real homely feel and this is because of their brilliant staff. The Aussie BBQ on Monday night is a definate. The food was excellent and the didgeridoo competition was... More

Have been to 11 different hostels so far and by far this is the winner. Staff are amazing, bedrooms are nice and airy, love the quirkiness of it all. The BBQ night at sister company Tropic days was amazing, brilliant food and the owner Gabrielle was such good entertainment. More

The best staff I've ever encountered - truly and genuinely helpful and friendly! Very nice hostel with good, well sized, public areas and good security (main gate locks at night). Clean, quiet and calm. Takes about 10 minutes to walk to The Esplanade. More

Before I arrived at Travellers Oasis, I had decided I would never stay in a hostel again. This place renewed all hope for hostels in my mind. It was wonderful. The rooms are not anything special, but it's clean and comfortable. I stayed in a single room for a reasonable rate and met plenty of people who were also staying... More

We stayed here for 6 days and enjoyed the stay. Our room was small but clean and had a own sink which was excellent. The hostel is located close to the main shopping center and Coles and is very near to the center of the city. Perfect if you want to get around by foot. The best thing by far... More
