I recently had the pleasure of staying at The Village Hostel in Canberra, and I must say, my experience was nothing short of amazing. From the moment I walked in, I felt a warm and welcoming atmosphere that set the tone for a fantastic stay. The staff especially, Chandresh and Rodrigo, deserve special mention for their exceptional hospitality and professionalism. They went above and beyond to ensure that the hostel was not only welcoming but also well-maintained. Their attention to detail and commitment to guest satisfaction truly made a positive impact on my stay. They were not only welcoming but also incredibly helpful, providing valuable information about the local area, recommending places to visit, and ensuring that all guests felt at home. Their dedication to creating a positive and comfortable environment did not go unnoticed, and it greatly enhanced the overall experience. The hostel itself was clean, well-equipped, and had a vibrant atmosphere. The keyless entry system added a modern touch, making it convenient for guests. Despite any minor issues in the common areas, the proactive approach of the management team, ensured that everything was swiftly addressed. In conclusion, my stay at The Village Hostel Canberra was memorable, thanks to the outstanding hospitality provided by Rodrigo and Chandresh. I highly recommend this hostel to anyone visiting Canberra and looking for a welcoming, professionally-managed accommodation. Kudos to The Village Hostel and its fantastic team for making my stay truly enjoyable!
This is definetly one of the nicer hostels I've stayed at. Very clean and spacious. The staff were also very helpful and kind. One night when we were staying we had a guy come into our room who had really bad breathing issues and was making horrible snores and gurgles all night, at 11pm me and my partner went to reception and they were so helpful and understanding and moved us to different room with just the two of us and I'm so thankful.
