About Big Hostel

At Big Backpackers Hostel, we believe that travel is all about making connections, creating memories, and having fun. Whether you’re here to explore Sydney or working towards your next big adventure, our hostel is designed to offer a warm, friendly, and inclusive atmosphere where you can truly feel at home. Everyone is welcome here – we pride ourselves on being a safe and open space for all, and we celebrate diversity in every form! Events and Social Life Our Events Team is always planning something exciting! From BBQs and cook-together evenings to night outs around the city, we offer plenty of opportunities to meet new friends and bond with fellow travelers. Solo travelers especially love our vibrant community, where it’s easy to make lasting friendships while exploring Sydney. Our spacious lounge is the perfect spot for games nights, movie marathons, or just relaxing and chatting with new pals. Work Hard, Play Hard For those looking to balance work with travel, we offer a Productivity Lab – a quiet, focused space where you can get things done without distractions. Whether you’re working remotely or catching up on your studies, this space has everything you need to be productive while enjoying the hostel's welcoming vibe. Relax and Unwind When it’s time to take a break, head up to our rooftop terrace where you can chill with friends, enjoy a sunbath, or take views of the city. It’s the perfect place to relax after a busy day of exploring or to kick back on your own with a good book. Perfect Location Located just a 5-minute walk from Central Station, our hostel is perfectly positioned to explore all of Sydney’s top attractions. The world-famous Sydney Opera House is just a 30-minute walk away, and the buses to Bondi Beach – one of the most iconic beaches in the world – depart just a few yards from the hostel. Pitt Street, Sydney’s main shopping strip, is just around the corner, and Surry Hills, with its trendy restaurants on Crown Street, is a short walk away. On the other side, you’ll find Chinatown, where you can indulge in a variety of delicious Asian cuisines. We're also just yards away from Oxford Street, Sydney’s LGBTIQ+ center, making our hostel an ideal choice for travelers who want to explore Sydney’s vibrant and inclusive queer community.
