Blue Parrot is Sydney's best-loved hostel and is consistently top rated.

Centrally located on Macleay Street in cosmopolitan Potts Point; the chic and glamorous part of inner Sydney.

Blue Parrot is 5 minutes walk to Kings Cross train station (which runs to the City and Bondi), and 15 minutes walk to the City Centre. Walk by water's edge and through the Botanic Gardens to the Opera House & Harbour Bridge. The ideal location to explore our beautiful city.

Our hostel is safe and clean and in the trendiest part of Sydney with the best nightlife in town, close to all the hip bars, restaurants, pubs and clubs. Surrounded by cafes, shops, supermarkets, post office & banks, but far enough to have a good night’s rest.

Our private courtyard garden is a peaceful space to chill out, swing on a hammock, enjoy morning coffee, an evening drink, a BBQ or chat with fellow travellers (open 9am - 10pm ). Or you can hang in the cosy lounge room with big plasma TV, a library and PCs with free internet!

The two sisters, Effie & Sasha, own and run the hostel creating a young, fun & friendly atmosphere. If you like small hostels with character offering a real backpacking experience where you get to meet everybody, then this is the place to come, especially if you are travelling solo.

A valid passport is required on check-in.

The Rough Guide to Australia::
“In a great position in the trendy (and quieter) part of Potts Point, and with helpful staff, this converted mansion is sunny, airy, brightly painted and tastefully furnished.
One of the best points is the huge courtyard garden out back with wooden furniture and big shady trees”.
