Aussie Way Backpackers was my introduction to Brisbane as well as Australia, and is my 1st choice of accommodation next time I go back! It was the perfect place to begin my stay in Australia. I stayed a week and the cleaning lady came in every day; laid back and relaxing, rather than a "party hard" hostel; friendly guests, staff,... More

The hostel was pleasant enough (although we have been in a lot better since) but the most annoying thing was all the rules the hostel enforced. It was like they were dealing with children. Maybe it's because most of the backpacking clientele in Australia are young but after the freedom of Asian hostels it was a bit of a shock... More

I am 60 yrs old male. I really had a wonderful time in my 1st stay at a backpackers! I met a lot of really nice young people. I had to use gents a lot more than anyone and I never had any trouble finding it vacant. Bill r

Stayed in April and thoroughly enjoyed my stay. The location is good - just a little outside the city centre but walkable. The hostel has a lovely old feel to it and was very clean. There is plenty of space as well. It is not a party hostel but that was fine with me.

My partner and I stayed here in a double room for 3 nights. The location is great, just a 10 minute walk into the City and 10 minute walk to the stadium (we went to a Broncos game as well). We were in a house with just two other couples so it was nice and cozy and quiet. There is... More

I stayed here for two nights. It has a good location for the price and it's just 15 mins walk from the bus centre which has all main bus / rail routes and greyhound departures. I stayed in a double room which was clean and a good size. It has a vintage feel about it as it is quite old... More

Aussie Way Backpackers is a small, clean and friendly hostel. You can walk in the city and the next supermarkt is 5 minutes away. In my two month stay I had had a great time and it felt like a second home. Clean rooms with a locker and a fridge in every room. The kitchen is well-equipped and if its... More

I stayed long term in Aussie Way Backpackers, from November 2012 to January 2013, the staff were really friendly, a very homely hostel with a good friendly vibe where I had some amazing times. The hostel is cleaned every morning. Nice quiet hostel, to get some decent sleep.
