Backpacker travel insurance is recommended for travellers planning a visit to hostels in Cairns, Australia.
Cairns.com.au reports that the award for Best Backpacker Accommodation in Queensland, Australia, has been given to Northern Greenhouse in central Cairns by the 2008 Tourism Tropical North Queensland Awards. The popular venue is described as a hostel with '5-star' appeal, including a high level of cleanliness, a friendly atmosphere and a comprehensive activities calendar.
Ron Lazarovits, the company director, told the website: "This is our first year of operation in Cairns and a fantastic result for our team and the Cairns community."
The Northern Greenhouse aims to appeal to backpackers and other budget travellers by offering a range of accommodation for singles all the way up to family groups. It also offers a barbecue and communal pool area.
The Greenhouse group is well established in Australia with several accolades to its name along with certain industry recognition for innovation, particularly at the Greenhouse Backpacker, its Melbourne hostel.
