The Nook Backpackers

The beds were the most comfortable hostel beds I have ever stayed in. However, the rooms were very stuffy. The window which we paid extra for was tiny and you couldn't even see out of it. It felt suffocating being inside the room.90% of the time there was no pace left to sit inside the hostel leaving us to go to a local cafe jjst to sit. The staff never smiled and there is no free parking within walking distance.

So so noisy at night, it seems that there is no noise policy at any point and everyone stayed in the patio until really late talking not even trying to make less noise. Our room had a window which couldn't close (kinda aeration) and given to the patio, it was really noisy and really uncomfortableThere is no side lamp per bed, and if you sleep in the 12 bed dorm it's really annoying to make your way with the lamp of your phone, neither plug per bed Everything has to be on the floor. No private draw under the bed, all backpack need to stay like this in the roomI have been to way better backpackers and with clever utilities for every one

This is where you want to stay in Hobart.We stayed in room 11, the private double room. It was budget priced for the privacy you'll need, but still get to enjoy getting human interactions while in the common areas.To start with, the location was perfect. After we parked our car, in the Nook's car park, we were checked in by lovely Anna, many hours earlier! Maybe we were lucky that the room had not been occupied the night before, but I'd say Anna was very nice to offer that, and she can sing too. The room was very nice and we even received towels, body wash, shampoo and biscuits! So not expecting that from a backpackers! The lounge room is cosy and homy. Sitting inside makes you feel being in a cafe, only way more spacious. The kitchen has tools and utensils you'll need to whip up a simple meal. I love that they are diligent with recycling. They even recycle bottle lids separately. The food labels they provide are awesomely useful too.Definitely will come back again when we have the chance, and definitely recommend everyone to come and stay here.

I stayed for one night in a 14 bed mixed dorm. The facilities were great and environment/vibe was exceptional. The young man on the reception desk was very helpful and very informative. I would like to thank him for his persistance in trying to fix the printer to print out maps of the Franklin River for me, although he had no luck whilst i was there he made my stay great. I will definitely be back!

We loved our stay here! We stayed 4 nights and will definitely come back to stay here next time we visit Hobart. Staff are very friendly, the atmosphere is warm and comfortable. The other people that stay here that we spoke to were all very diverse, lovely people. We stayed in a private room - surprisingly good considering it is a 2 star hostel, and would recommend if you like your own privacy. Walls are really thin but people in neighbouring rooms were really respectful and didn't make much noise. Location is perfect - in the middle of the city, walking distance to some great restaurants. Looking forward to staying here again.

The location is pretty good, within walking distance of the centre of Hobart. The room I was in had quite a few people in but it was somewhat divided which helps, although there was only one plug and the beds were very noisy. Also if appreciate a rearing light and a small area to put some things when I'm on the top bunk. The people who work there are very nice and the common areas are good. The WiFi didn't really reach my bed which was pretty annoying.

Excellent service at the front desk, we were received with a big smile; the rooms are confortable and there is enough space in the common areas in general; also, the patrons I encountered were all really friendly and respectful. The location is quite good, in a very nice neighbourhood and walking distance from interesting spots to visit. In general, I reckon it is quite worth the price.

Staff are very knowledgable and super helpful. Patrons are quite well-behaved, good-natured folks. The hostel itself is clean (bathrooms included) and well-maintained... within a nice walk of things. At the time of writing, they provide breakfast cereal in the mornings, until 9:30. Baggage storage is available.

Simply one of the best hostels I've ever been to. You will have the sensation you're home. The beds are really comfortable, the breakfast is more than enough and for sure the best is the staff. They always have a smile to give. Definitely I'll book the nook again.
