Reviews
"Mo is the nicest guy ever. He booked us on room 21, a little private room that was super comfy with a private bathroom to take a hot shower. He is always so polite and in such a great mood, and the Hostel is clean and warm, a wonderful experience that I look forward to repeat."
"Narrara is so cosy and comfortable. I felt very very welcome, the owner Mo is so kind and accommodating. The common area was always warm and peaceful, kitchen very well equipped, clean and stocked bathrooms, and the outside spaces are beautiful. Would absolutely stay again."
"If you are looking for the best hostel manger not just in Hobart or Tasmania but in all of Australia then look no further. Mo is really the best Manager and he runs the most familiar, little, comfy hostel you could imagine. I stayed here multiple times and enjoyed every second of it. The hostel itself is clean and has a very good vibe, but it's a bit confusing to find your way around in the beginning. Located near the city Center you can reach everything by foot, but it’s far away enough to be calmer. The price is absolute fair! Mo is always open for a talk or some advices what to do. Please Mo, stay as you are!!"
"One of the best hostel I've been so far. The owner, Mo, is very friendly and an excellent host. The people you meet in the living room makes you feel like home. I've been very sad when I had to leave."
"I am not usually leaving any reviews but, Narrara Backpackers deserves it. Some points : - 10/10 about cleanliness - Very well equipped kitchen - Grounded coffee at disposition - Common areas comfy - Spacious bathroom/toilets Let’s talk about the owners. They literally are the kindest host I’ve ever met in a year in Australia. Always up for a talk and little attentions. We had really goos conversations together. They are really devoted to the hostel and their customers. So, if you are looking fr an hostel in Hobart, go to Narrara Hostel, you will be welcomed by two beautiful souls. Have a great day !"
