Back Of Chapel

The bustle of bodies, the hum of conversations, the lure of clubs, cafes, restaurants and bars. Days are alive, fuelled by Chapel Street’s energy. The fashions. The flavours. The lifestyle...

WE have been granted a permit to double our size, 60 beds in March, and we shall be having a Halloween Party on Sat. October 31st
More like a home with maximum 60 guests you can enjoy the bustling atmosphere 15 metres from our doorstep

Back of Chapel is a recently renovated 150 year old Victorian Terrace on the doorstep of Chapel Street - one of Melbourne's most funky and exciting areas. We have a huge fully equipped kitchen, private showers, recliner chairs, comfy couches, internet access, balconies, library, TV lounge (you really have to see the size of the TV to believe it!), leafy courtyard, air-conditioning in common rooms, BBQ, laundry facilities...phew...what else?...how about free daily breakfast, sausage sizzle in summer, free pie and chip nights in winter, free movie nights, free lockers. And we have a new and funky bar on the premises!
Have we got your attention yet?


If not shall I point out we're only a hop, skip and a jump from St. Kilda and the city!

We will send you - or take you - in the right direction. Nothing is too small for us to undertake.
All you have to do is ask!

Our hostel is not child-friendly as we have a bar on-site and lots of young people (over 18) drinking alcohol and having fun!

No animals allowed as some people have allergies to them in dorms - no joke!
