It doesn't matter if you're traveling alone because there's always a crowd going out with you to show you around. If going out isn't your scene, why not pull up a chair in our café style courtyard for a chat with new friends, relax and watch a movie in the TV and entertainments area or cook a dinner in our large modern guest kitchen.

Time to kick back and relax.

Pack your sun cream and your dark glasses and take a bus trip to Bondi, home of the beautiful and scantily clad for days of idling in the sun, learning to surf or just working on that tan to impress the friends back home.

What a great life!

Being centrally located, we are only 5 minutes walk from the beautiful Botanic Gardens leading on to the Opera house, the famous Sydney Harbor Bridge and the CBD – let us guide you on a walking tour of all the highlights with the color and fun of great restaurants, pubs, nightlife and atmosphere of this amazing city!

With a lively, energetic bunch of managers, who've been, seen and done it all themselves, the Jolly Swagman maintains a reputation for the friendliest staff, the cleanest beds, and the best rates. There is also a TV, fan and fridge in all rooms.
