Wake Up! Bondi Beach

"Thanks for everything. Jack was great upon check in and made me feel very welcome, as I booked very late too. Holly during night shift went above and beyond to full fill my requests. Thanks again Holly for staying so friendly and helpful! And Linda was the best person to check out with, extremely friendly and knowledgeable. All together a short stay but great experience. Room was clean and guests were respectful and slept throughout all the night. Compliments to the management too for running the hostel so smooth and making me want to come back next time I’m in Sydney."

"This place was great and the location was perfect! The staff especially, Shar and Josh, were amazing! The daily events made it easy to connect and meet people; and always gave you something to do each day. The staff made me feel safe and welcomed and were able to assist with any problem I may have had. Will definitely be staying here my next time in Sydney."

"The hostel itself was clean, had lots of different spaces to hang out, I love the roof terrace! Loads of plug sockets in communal areas which was useful, and plug and light socket by your bed. Having the key on a lanyard is useful and easier to keep it safe. Free surfboard hire was epic (although did give me surf rash on my thighs which I haven’t had from any other boards) and would be good to have a clothes line of some sort on the terrace to dry surf clothes. Nice powerful showers, kitchen well stocked with utensils. Great events on each day. I particularly liked the pancakes for breakfast! And I loved the organised walk from bondi to coogie. Such a great way to meet lots of people. Only downside was people regularly coming in at 4am from a night out slamming doors and being excessively loud. I wish there was an option for a ‘quiet room’ so I could have slept better whilst there."

"Such a good hostel! Loved staying here so much that we booked an extra night!! Very social, lots of hostel events where it was very easy to meet people. Rooms and bathrooms were clean and the staff were so helpful with everything. Location was perfect and the roof terrace was amazing."

"I was originally staying here for 3 nights but loved this hostel so much I ended up extending for 1 week! Super clean, great kitchen and social spaces. Every day the hostel has some great social events on. Perfect location for the beach and access to shops. The highlight of my stay was definitely the incredible staff team. Although everyone was amazing, I have to give credit to Joshua and Tom. I’ve been staying in hostels for 6 months and worked in one myself for 2 months. I know the challenge of getting a big group together and making sure everyone is having the best time possible, Josh absolutely smashed it on nights out making sure everybody had someone to talk to and kept the hype up throughout the night without being pushy. Tom went out of his way on a rainy day to show me a walk along the coast and some of the best local spots. Overall I was thrilled with my stay and can’t wait to come back to Bondi in a few months, I’ll definitely be staying here again! :)"
