YHA Railway Square is arguably Sydney’s most laid back hostel, though I suppose it would depend on who you’re arguing with! Railway Square adjoins Central Station and is smack-dab in the heart of Sydney’s backpacking district.
One thing that instantly separates YHA Railway Square from other Sydney Hostels is the fact some of their accommodation is actually made from converted railway carriages. Park your caboose in… umm… a caboose!
If you fancy some backpacker accommodation that is a little more conventional you could try one of the comfy rooms in the historic 1904 main building, now converted into contemporary modern accommodation.

- Spa pool,
