Traveller reviews

“The hostel is a good place to stay in cairns”
03 Dec 2024
The Mad Monkey Central in Cairns is a really great hostel. The atmosphere among the residents is very pleasant. It's not a party hostel that still has parties in the middle of the night, but rather a bit more relaxed, which is much better for me because I was able to get to know people quicker. The bar is open until midnight and the prices are really good. I can really recommend the hostel

“Superb”

The bar located inside the property was such a vibe! I’ve met a lot of nice people there and had such a great time:)

“Definitely stay here!”

The hostel is the best in Cairns. It has the perfect mix of liveliness with the bar and also a lot of space to chill out in the common areas and balconies. The rooms are lovely and clean and the staff are all very accommodating. I would definitely recommend booking here you won't regret it!

“Great staff and a holiday atmosphere”
10 Oct 2024
Landed in Cairns at 5 am from Tokyo, and needed a place to stay for the day as we’d been awake all night. The reception opened at 7 am, but the night staff made us feel very welcome Untill the reception opened: At 7 am, they put us straight in a room, once we booked a spot in the hotel. It was an incredible experience, I cannot thank the staff enough . The hotel was a very resort / Bali type vibe, with a pool and many people from all over the world. The bed was absolutely incredible also.

“Superb”

I really liked how central the hostel was because you could reach the shopping centre the esplanade, the buses or even rustys market really easily. The facilities at the hostel were pretty average but clean. I really liked how you could chill at the hostel but also socialize. It is a very chill but fun hostel. They have every evening something going on like a bbq or a tribute to easily connect with new people or just have fun with your friends.

“Good stay but ended up being a disappointment for me..”

Property was clean,not that loud,kitchen was good as well

“Amazing”
25 Sep 2024
I really liked the vibe of the place, the people, and how well-located it is—right in the center of everything, so you can walk everywhere. The facilities are great, with a large kitchen and a common area where all the hostel guests hang out, playing board games, drinking, and chatting. They have staff cleaning all day, so it’s super clean and tidy. I stayed in a 4-bed room, one of the most spacious I’ve been in. I really liked it—there was my own locker, and the bed was very comfortable! There’s staff everywhere, so if you have any questions, you can ask them, and they’re always willing to help. :)

“Lovely”

Big common area with a bar, cheap drinks and good atmosphere. It was nice to meet people around the pool table after dinner. Quiet by night as the commons are closed. Good facilities, swimming pool and activities everyday. Free breakfast everyday and free food on Sunday and Monday nights.

“88 days in Cairns”

What I enjoyed the most would most likely be the friends I've made here hanging around the hostel in the evenings
