Adelaide Backpackers Inn
Adelaide, SA
About
Adelaide Backpackers Inn sits on Carrington Street in Adelaide's city centre, putting travellers within easy reach of the South Australian capital's main attractions. The hostel suits independent budget travellers and backpackers looking for affordable accommodation in a convenient location. With a modest Google rating of 3.1 based on 229 reviews, it offers what you'd expect from a no-frills city hostel: basic beds, shared facilities, and a central base for exploring. The surrounding area gives easy access to Adelaide Zoo, Mount Lofty Summit, and the nearby reserves including Waterfall Gully and Morialta Conservation Park, making it a decent choice for those keen on day trips into the Adelaide Hills. The location on a main street means decent public transport links and proximity to shops, cafes, and restaurants. This is a straightforward, practical option for solo travellers wanting to be in the heart of Adelaide without breaking the bank, though the mixed reviews suggest it's worth checking current guest feedback before booking.
