Bounce is a clean &well kept hostel. Very friendly staff & awesome view from the roof top. The location is very handy right next to Central Station. The manager was very welcoming and made my visit to Bounce one not to forget!

This is a weird hostel to review as there are 2 sides to my experience! The hostel itself is great, the tooms are clean, beds comfortable, showers are good, there's a tv area with bean bags to chill with and the roof terrace is such a great feature, had some lovely nights up there. Ok bad side- the staff. All... More

Bounce is a great hostel to stay in if you're looking for a slightly quieter stay, getting away from your typical loud backpackers. When I arrived, it was before check-in time, but the girl at the desk struggled to tell me when I would actually be able to check in. Once I finally arrived in my room, it was incredibly... More

The whole hotel was very clean, nice carpets, modern furniture and trendy common areas. My bed was comfortable, I had a personal night light and double PowerPoint in my locker. Towel racks at the door and... More

This place is a hostel, not a hotel - the double room standard was a hotel, but the actual place is definitely a hostel. The music playing in the communal kitchen was so loud during the day I couldn't stay there. It was even louder at night, but that's fine as it's an awesome little roof top terrace to sit... More

I had an amazing time staying at Bounce in Sydney. The location is perfect, just across from central station and a stones throw away from the free city bus. The receptionists were super friendly and knowledgeable and gave me great tips on where to go in the city. The Coyote night on Tuesdays was an absolute blast, cheap drinks/ a... More

This was the first place I stayed when I got to Sydney and I'm so glad! It's easy to reach from the airport and it is super nice. Comfortable beds, air conditioned rooms, clean showers/bathrooms, a large kitchen, and a great outdoor deck. I arrived at 8am, way before the 2pm check in time, but they let me check in... More
