Sydney, being one of the most popular tourist destinations in the world, boasts a wide variety of accommodation options to choose from. But for those wondering whether they should stay in a hotel or backpacker hostel, we explore the pros and cons of each below.
Hotels offer a sense of luxury and comfort that backpacker hostels cannot replicate. From a personal level, having your own space in which to relax and unwind after a long day of sightseeing is an invaluable respite. From a practical perspective, hotels often come with kitchenettes and laundry facilities, which can save you time and money during your stay. Sydney’s hotel prices can be expensive, but there are a number of good budget options available if you know where to look.
Hostels offer more of a social atmosphere and are a great way to meet new people from all over the world. Many backpacker hostels also offer free breakfast and other meals, as well as organised activities and tours. Sydney’s hostels vary in price, with some of the best deals to be found in the city’s more backpacker-friendly areas like Newtown and Kings Cross.
In the end, it all comes down to what you’re looking for in a travel experience. If you want to relax and take it easy, then a hotel is the way to go. But if you’re after a more social, action-packed holiday, then a backpacker hostel is the obvious choice.
