For over 20 years the Jolly Swagman Backpackers Sydney Hostel has been the heart and soul of the Australian backpacker/hostel world. An owner operated business, the Jolly Swagman Kings Cross Backpackers pride themselves on giving personal service to all guests and constantly working to upgrade facilities.

If you are looking for the best budget accommodation in Sydney, congratulations, you've just found it!

Located in the heart of Sydney's Backpacker Mecca - Kings Cross - the Jolly Swagman Hostel is open 24 hours, famous for giving backpackers the time of their lives.

Whilst offering amazing hostel rooms at cheap rates, the Jolly Swagman Kings Cross Hostel prides itself on an unrivalled social atmosphere and friendly environment. With large common areas, a new TV room and an outdoor terrace, you can relax and sink a few beers with new friends while the sun sets over the city skyline and Sydney Harbour. Don't forget to join in our fun-filled entertainment schedule. If that's not your thing, on the doorstep you'll discover the magic of all Sydney has to offer, or you can escape from it all in your quiet and comfortable room away from noise or distraction.

On the doorstep are breathtakingly scenic views of the city skyline, the spectacular Opera House and Sydney Harbour Bridge - all highlighted by vivid sunsets.
The Jolly Swagman is located in the heart of Sydney's best nightlife. All the best clubs and pubs are only a hop, skip and a jump away so there is no need for trains, buses or taxis. SAVE that money for better things. The Jolly Swagman has great deals with the best backpacker friendly bars and restaurants to offer all guests great discounts and FREE entry wherever you go.

It doesn't matter if you're traveling alone because there's always a crowd going out with you to show you around. If going out isn't your scene, why not pull up a chair in our café style courtyard for a chat with new friends, relax and watch a movie in the TV and entertainments area or cook a dinner in our large modern guest kitchen.
Time to kick back and relax.

Pack your sun cream and sunglasses and take a bus trip to BONDI, home of the beautiful and scantily clad for days of idling in the sun, learning to surf or just working on that tan to impress the friends back home.
What a great life!
