FAQ's
Is there transport from the airport?
Yes, you have a few options depending on what time you arrive:
Between 6.30am - 7pm
St Kilda Express Skybus. The big red bus is directly outside the terminal at T4 at Melbourne Tullamarine Airport. The stop for Base St Kilda Melbourne Backpackers is right outside our front door on Carlisle Street.
Between 7pm - 6.30am
If you arrive outside of the above hours take the regular Skybus to Southern Cross Station and then jump on the number 96 tram towards St. Kilda Beach. Get off at the Luna Park stop and then walk 100 meters down Carlisle Street away from the beach.
Do you have free Wifi?
Yes, we offer wifi free to all guests between 7am and 7pm in the bar and lobby. If you'd like wifi in the rooms it's $4 per 24 hours or $12 per week
Do you have a car park?
As Base Backpackers St Kilda is in a residential area there are lots of paid and unpaid options available, just make sure you read the signs. If you're unsure about what a sign is trying to say just come and say "hi" to one of our staff and we'll help you out.
