After a horrendous stay in a Hostel in Melbourne we booked into Charlie B's and found it to be clean and comfortable. The double room we shared was clean and the beds were ready made with lovely linen. The hostel had easy to use internet, laundry facilities and a great selection of information about what to do in Christchurch. Overall... more

Stayed in this hostel twice in December and found it to be a great base from which to explore Christchurch. Its within easy walking distance to the cathedral square from where buses depart to both the airport and the train station. The hostel itself is very clean with a mid sized kitchen and two seperate tv rooms. The staff are... more

This hostel is one of the best in New Zealand and Australia! I have stayed is some nice places but this place ticked all my boxes and then some.

We found the hostel was pretty much spotless and the staff really helpful. I think if you go with Qualmark rating whilst your in NZ then... more

Situated off Latimer square, this backpackers is a 15 minute stroll to the pubs and cafes an Oxford Terrace. That's the only positive about this place. Staff are kinda weird, the foyer is dirty and smells of cabbage soup, or is that the staff?. The kitchen is basic and, as so often is the case in backpackers hostels that have... more
