In Australia you have the whole range of cheap accommodation like you would have in the US or Europe, just slightly less expensive we would say! You can choose between hostels, motel and hotel accommodation.

Hostels

Hostels are as I am sure you are aware of Hostels the really low end budget hostel-style accommodation where you mostly have to share bathrooms and sleep with other people in domrs but you can get away with 20 to 35 Australian Dollars per night for a bed.

Hotels

As far as hotels in Australia are concerned you would find at least 1 luxury hotel in each bigger city. In general services and hospitality are often oustanding in Australian hotels including room cleaning services the daily free morning paper etc. Australia hotels have lots to offer for any type of visitor for those who are backpacking from the cheapest youth hostel to the next and those who want a bit more comfort in one of the numerous cheap hotels in Australia.
