melbourne hostels

Melbourne the capital of Victoria is situated on the Yarra River. This cosmopolitan city has a high regard for, cafés, fine foods, wines and the arts. Melbourne has plenty of backpacker hostels. In General the centre is first choice for most visitors, put off by the term 'suburbs' but the suburbs are as little as a ten minute walk away and they have easily as rich a café society and nightlife as the centre. They also offer better value hostels. Be careful around Melbourne's big 4 events, the Melbourne Cup, Australian Open, Grand Prix, AFL Grand Final as most hostels will increase their prices.
