Who stays at the YHA?
Sydney Harbour YHA is one of the very few establishments offering low cost accommodation in The Rocks; most accommodation is 4 or 5 star and demand for low-cost accommodation is not largely met. Sydney Harbour YHA is YHA’s flagship property. It has facilities currently not provided at other YHAs such as all en-suite bedrooms, a separate groups’ area for school groups and a terrace with harbour views. Sydney Harbour YHA accommodates domestic and international independent travellers. The historical significance of the site and programs run from The Big Dig Archaeology Education Centre also attracts regional education groups – from school-children through to university students. There is an area exclusively for groups’ use, which is separate from the individual travellers’ common areas.
