Reviews of The Flying Fox Backpackers
"Really nice and cozy hostel. Stayed in a private room for 3 nights which was spacious and had an electric blanket! There was a fire going every evening. The guests were all very friendly and had interesting stories. The owner Ross was a fantastic host and made free pizza one night 10/10. Would definitely recommend for solo travelers or small groups. Best, Scott & Poppy β"
"The best backpackers on the planet! The Flying Fox is the place stay if you want to meet amazing people from around the world and share some blue mountains adventures. The dorms are very comfortable, and you also have the choice of private rooms that are very nice and quiet. The Fox has a fire hut which is on every night of the year, and even has a climbing wall in the backyard! You can also pitch a tent and enjoy the stunning views if that's more your thing. The best thing about the Fox is the awesome and amazing host. Ross is incredible, and will do everything possible to make sure you get the most out of your visit to the gorgeous Blue Mountains. I love this place!"
"The Flying Fox has such a warm and friendly vibe. I love staying there! Ross is such a great host. :) It's so close to the station. The place is always stocked up with everything you may need. The kitchen is nice and tidy, with plenty of cooking, fridge and panrty space. There's breakfast provided if you want some yummy peanut butter and jelly toast! Haha The communal lounge area is set up around a nice wood fire, with games, musical instruments and big comfy couches and cushions!"
"Ross, the guy who runs this hostel is a man of big heart and has great empathy for all the guests who come from different walks of life. This hostel has been in Katoomba since 20 years and more. Heaps of photographs on the walls outside the office, speaks volumes. 5 stars for, - The guests are friendly, mostly international backpackers and Aussies who are visiting the blue mountains. - Lovely music that is playing all through the day, the beautiful cat which is part of the lovely family, the evening board games in the living room and the convos at the dinner table. - Chill out zones are the indoor fireplace, fireplace in the backyard, and living room where all the board gamers hang out in the evening. - Then there is pasta night every week, Ross himself cooks pasta for everyone. - From avid climbers to bushwalkers, from professionals who have taken a sabbatical to nomads/wanderers, from city siders to people who have lived in the bush, their stories makes the whole experience enriching! - The hostel is clean - the bathrooms, kitchen and all the public areas. - You don't feel lonely here."
"We stayed in a private room at the Flying Fox and had an amazing time. The bed and linens were very comfortable and the in room heater was sufficient for the cold evenings. There are indoor and outdoor fire places that keep the common areas nice and warm. It was a very good atmosphere and is in a great location just outside of the main busy areas. There's a lovely cat that hangs around as well so I've added a photo of her enjoying the fireplace."
