We came up Sydney harbour at night on the Fairstar late March 1970. We were bussed off to a hostel near Dulwich Hill Station. I only stayed one night there and have never been able to locate any info about it or remember the exact location. Any ideas

Almost certainly you stayed at Orana. We came on the Fairsea and stayed there for a week in 1959. The address is 407 Marrickville Rd Dulwich Hill and the building is still there - now a backpackers.

Thanks that's brilliant. It fits in exactly as I remember walk to station. We arrived there at 1am and took a taxi away at 3pm same day so only fleeting memory.
