On the day I arrived at Torquay at Home at Bells Beach, I knew I would have a great time here. First I just booker for three nights, but I extended my stay and spend there almost 3 weeks! The staff is very friendly and they always talk to everyone of the guests and help out, if there is a... More

My partner & I ended up staying here by default really, as the campsites in Torquay were asking for $75 per night with 3 night minimum, so our 2 night stay at $90 per night in a private room at the hostel worked out to be better value. The Scottish girl on reception was welcoming and friendly and our private... More

Originally booked 2 nights and extended to a week. It's a clean hostel with a very friendly environment where making travel buddies is far from difficult. The laid back beach vibe is great and the location is central and within walking distance to everything Torquay can offer - minus the short drive required to Bell's Beach. I highly recommend Home...

The hostel is nice, but not direct at bells beach...so surfers need a car, but it's close to stores and JanJuc (no real walk distance). Closest surfbeach is bach beack of Torquay. Nice team. Nice garden. Fair prices...Just free internet was missing.

We only stayed here one night on the start of our Great Ocean Road trip. This was a great find. The staff were extremely friendly, and the communal areas were modern and clean. The overall feel of the hostel is that of which you hope for in a smaller hostel, it is personal, clean and homely.

Very nice cozy hostel. Has been updated recently. Stayed one night in a private room. Room was decorated with artwork on the walls. Common area is nice. Location is a little bit out of town but still walking distance to everything. Kitchen might be a bit small when everyone is cooking but gas range is nice and lots of pots... More

We travel quite a lot in Australia and went to the Great Ocean Road in May 2012. Home @ Bells Beach is the best backpacker we've been to, even having tried some in Melbourne. The building has been renovated and refurbished recently, so mattress and beds and linen brand new ! Locker in room. Spacious and quiet room, even with... More
