BUG review
Glenorchy Backpackers Retreat consists of dorm rooms set behind the town’s old pub, which has a considerable amount of character. The dorms have bunks and single beds, which are all made-up, in small rooms. The kitchen is tiny, and not very well equipped, but seeing as there are only 14 beds, it suffices. Showers and toilets are nice and clean. They are set in a small garden with a few resident cats. It has a very quiet atmosphere and internet access is available.
About BUG's hostel reviews
This hostel was visited by one of BUG's team of hostel inspectors who write independent reviews and assess a star rating based on an objective assessment criteria.
We show up unannounced at hostels to write honest and unbiased hostel reviews. Many of BUG's reviews now feature videos and photo slideshows. BUG never receives payment for listing any establishment and BUG's researchers never accept free accommodation in exchange for favourable reviews.
