Great hostel option
Really nice hostel, central location with lots to walk to- they held luggage for us from our early flight which was super helpful.
Angela, 1-night trip

Friendly staff helpfully, clean quite place not stinky felt quite modern, comfy bed pillow not so much but all in all good for what I needed.

The best of this place is the staff always willing to help and solve every issue!
Constanza, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

One of the more respectful, cleaner hostels in cairns, perfect for the more matured generation who respect others privacy, females shared bathroom is extremely clean. Aside from requiring maintenance to 2/3 hand basins and regular topup of hand towels/soap, I cannot fault this hostel.
Bianca, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great hostel at Cairns CBD. Clean, quiet with a great social space in the hallway. Highly recommended for solo travelers that enjoy mostly resting at night after a full day of activities.
Jose, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Very quiet, stayed in a 2 person room with my friend. Simple & clean. Bathroom was great…lots of showers & clean. Felt very safe. No parking, so try the parking garage on Lake St, $12/day.
Chelsea, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

A very good backpacker type of place
In a central location, very close to both attractions and amenities (restaurants, bars, shops, bottle (liquor) store.) All star ratings are relative, i.e., based on this being a backpacker dormitory type of place. Needed a place to stay on short notice and was able to get room with just four beds and semi-private pair of toilet + shower rooms. People staying observed the 10 PM quiet hour start. The people out on the street, not so much.

Nice surroundings, easy walking access to everything, good friendly staff, safe, several tour agents around

Kimb, 4-night trip

If you are booking a seperate room check details
Booked a room didn't notice there was no en suit bathroom, it's my fault probably. Also no window so it sort of feels like a box, but it was cheap secure and clean.
Mahmut Ayberk, 3-night trip

4/10 Fair

Paid extra for the premium king private room and spent the whole time listening to slamming doors. The shared bathroom for the premium rooms isn’t lockable so be prepared to walk in on people on the loo or in the shower! Staff are great and location is central and it’s probably great if you’re in a dorm and on a budget but personally I wouldn’t stay there again.
Andrew, 2-night trip

4/10 Fair

Very budget for 40$ a night. Would’ve liked curtains between beds
Owen, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great location, clean bathrooms, but no window in the rooms and therefore smelly and no fresh air

My stay at The Village was wonderful, from the moment I checked in with Jonnie. He was super friendly and helped us at all times. Our trip to Cairns was to celebrate my mom's birthday, and I can say that we had a very pleasant experience. The place is quiet and well-maintained, exactly what is needed to relax and have a good time.
