Winner of the TNT Magazine Golden Backpack Award 2008 as voted by guests staying with us.

Cheap and cheerful and in the absolute heart of Hobart. We have friendly reception crew and great atmosphere in our large rambling hostel, with heated rooms and theme nights.

Clean, comfortable and fun! Meet heaps of people in our huge lounge, dining room and kitchen.

And as soon as you step outside you're only minutes walk from the museums, cinemas, arcade, city parks, Elizabeth St. Mall, restaurants and cafes, Sullivans Cove, night clubs, Salamanca Place (remember the amazing Saturday market), river cruises - how much time have you got? Conveniently, all major banks, flight centre and government offices are also extremely close by.

Feel secure with the state-of-the-art fire detection system, sprinkler fire suppression, security coded 24-hour access door, bike storage, baggage storage and in-house security/fire warden.

There's a spacious kitchen, a dining room, internet access, a laundry and a comfortable lounge to make this a home away from home. At Central City Backpackers you'll have every convenience you need to make your stay carefree.

Sport buffs wont leave the lounge now that we are the first hostel in Tasmania with Austar sports channels – Fox One and Two, ESPN, movie channel and more.

When you do recover from your hangover and leave the lounge, we have great advice on the cheapest or free ways to see Hobart and the surrounding areas! Our reception crew can help organise your fantastic 'Tour de Tassie'.
