YHA Adelaide Central

Adelaide Central Business District, Adelaide

The award-winning YHA Adelaide Central offers modern air-conditioned accommodation in the heart of Adelaide city centre, overlooking picturesque Light Square. Guests have a choice of dormitory and private rooms. Free WiFi is available all throughout the hostel. The hostel is walking distance to Central Market and Chinatown, where are plenty of restaurants and supermarkets. Furthermore, it is also close to Rundle Mall and State Library of South Australia. What's more, the bed was comfy and the shower (water pressure) was good. The kitchen was wonderful , which also provided hot water and cold water 24/7. We stayed at a 4 beds dorm that had plenty of space to put our belongings. Windows were big so that the room was bright and comfortable even without turning on the air-condition. Also, the room was quiet so that we had very good sleep at night. The car park was just ext to the hostel, which was very convenient. YHA Adelaide Central is one of the best hostels I have ever stayed.
