How to get to Mad Monkey Travel & Bar:

Just hop on the train from Central Station to Kings Cross. Exit the station to your right, walk 100m and we’re just on the other side of the road 🙂

Mad Monkey Backpackers is owned and operated by best friends Peter McLeay and John Paull, born and bred in Sydney. The two 20-something-year-old mates admit they’re slightly immature, which makes for an amazing time living and laughing at Mad Monkey Backpackers. Between the two of them, Pete and John have traveled to most parts of the world and absolutely love the hostel experience. Come and join them in the common area and share travel stories and adventures – they’re always keen for a chat.

Pete recently left the Military as a logistics officer and now splits his time between working on the businesses and backpacking himself. He loves all things travel so feel free to say hello. You will probably find him cooking a BBQ or organising pre drinks for the backpackers before heading out in Sydney. John is a doctor at a local hospital, so if you have any small medical emergencies, just go and see him and he will be happy to help. The boys hope that your stay at Mad Monkey Backpackers will be full of memories, and your home away from home.

Pete and John also own a sister hostels Kings Cross Backpackers + Mad Monkey Backpackers Kings Cross which is just up the road. Come and join us for a drink during your stay.
