All guest rooms at the hostel are fitted with a seating area. Guest rooms at Flying Fox Backpackers are equipped with a shared bathroom and bed linen. Such an awesome place with kind staff. Ross was great and helped us with every question we had about tracks, supermarkets, whatever. The place is really nice and homey, with an authentic backpacker feel to it. Breakfast was delicious, with everything you need and plenty of it. Ross was so great that one night we came home to find he had cooked dinner for everyone, just so we’d sit together and enjoy. The place was very clean, well furnished, and the kitchen was great for meal-making. The location was excellent — only a five-minute drive to every interesting track in Katoomba. Would definitely recommend it to anyone.

At the hostel the rooms come with a shared bathroom. Pretty good for a private room at a backpackers. We were up high with cute window seat and view. My partner thought it smelled weird with strange vibes, but I was pretty happy, room was cute, toilet and showers were separate but private and lockable.it definitely a quirky place but was still quite and reasonably clean.
