Hobart Central YHA

Hobart


Adjoining a historic hotel, this simple but clean YHA offers bright, secure accommodation right in the middle of town. Spread over three maze-like levels are dorms of all sizes, including nifty en-suite rooms and family-sized rooms. No parking, but you're within walking distance of everything here.

There's a free movie night and pancake breakfast weekly, and a 'chicken parmi party' at a nearby pub on Wednesdays.
