Although we can't show you exactly what it's like at our hostel over the internet, we can try to give you an impression using quotes of other people.
I first stayed at the T.R. back in 1995 as a terrified 21 year-old, away from home from the first time. I needn't have worried. Obviously things haven't changed, with rave reviews with Derek and Bob running a tight and tidy ship as ever. I made more friends in my six-month stay there than I ever did through school or work, happy memories! Hope to come back in 2006/7 for the Ashes tour - it's a wonderful home from home.November 2005 - Dave Pimlott
I first arrived at the Travellers at the beginning of July 2004 with a friend who had stayed there three years previously and highly recommended it. After a long flight from Thailand, Derek warmly welcomed us and remembered my friend immediately. He helped me to settle in quickly and find work. It soon become my 'base' for travels. I have fond memories of the friends I made there and of the helpful and friendly staff that make it such a great place. Definitely not to be missed. Next visit to Sydney and I know where I'm headed.June 2005 - Kerry (Kent)
Last Christmas we arrived at Sydney and were looking for a place in the Kings Cross area so we could sell our car in the car market there. Horrified at the high seasonal prices (since it was Christmas) and low quality of many backpackers around, we came to this little spot - Travellers Rest. Hosted by yourself and your great staff, we were lucky enough to stay in one of the BEST backpackers in Australia, and at a very reasonable price (a winning rate at this season). Not only were there nice and clean rooms, showers and kitchen, but also a very nice and airy balcony, and of course the rest of the basic facilities. One example of the quality of the service was that once it started to rain they took our clothes off the washing line so they wouldn't get wet. The bottom line - we stayed there for two weeks and enjoyed every minute.March 2005 - Yaniv and Julia
We stayed here for three and a half months when we first arrived in Sydney. It's a very nice hostel, and well-located. Derek, the manager, was a lovely guy, friendly and very helpful. This place will remain in our memories, as we tied the knot whilst staying here!!!September 2004 - Fiona and Paul
Had everything we wanted in a hostel and more!! The manager, Derek, was extremely helpful and friendly. We will be back for another visit!February 2004 - Maire Duffy
