Fantastic everything. Although it is quite difficult to meet others as the place is more like a hotel than a hostel, the accommodation is great!! Paying slightly more than your typical hostel basically guaranteed great stuff like an en suite bathroom, clean laundry most days and towels!!! I would de...

Gilligan's is a massive hostel and wonderfully clean and air conditioned, etc., with a bathroom in every dorm. It was a very convenient place to stay when I had friends in town, but when travelling alone it can be a...

I LOVED Gilligans! Although i don't see it being as 'family' like as some hostels felt, it was great for my short stay! The air conditoning really works here! It felt super clean. They include sheets, towel, a free beer with 'orientation' on your first nights stay. Just request a room farther away f...

More hotel than hostel. It's a palace compared to some hostels in Cairns. But it's relatively expensive and very impersonal. Stay a couple of nights for R&R and then find a real hostel...

Not as great as all the hype would have you believe. When we checked in we asked for a quiet room which we got. However, there were little black insects crawling everywhere. The staff were very helpful though and moved us to a different quiet room. It was very big and we liked the fact that the show...

Terrible. This place had rude staff and disgusting service. It's only good to go for a drink and meet people. If you think it's a normal backpackers forget it. It's a money machine and people are treated likewise. You are not allowed to have guests nor are you allowed to have a million and one other...

The staff is unfriendly, and can be down right nasty at times. It is way too expensive, especially for double rooms ($98). They made me leave a good room after a few days because someone else booked it. So they put me in a room right below the gym, which was totally noisy. So they moved me to a room...

This is the future for hostels, people! Gilligan's has raised the bar for room service, linen, big single beds, nightlife, and kitchens for all other hostels. If you're alone it might seem hard to make friends at first, but just lay by the fantastic waterfall pool to get some sun rays and I am sure ...

Very central, activities every night in their attached bar but some of my group had trouble with noisy rooms (club stays open 'til 3 a.m. every night and it's attached to the hostel ask for a room facing the street instead) and one girl traveling alone was put into a room with five males who were ab...

We drank in the room and ate, but yeah, you weren't allowed guests after ten but who cares. This place was brilliant. There's loads to do here and the rooms were amazing. The cleaners got used to the fact we didn't wake up till 1 o'clock, so they made as little noise as possible, which was great. If...
