The other reviews are right - its all about location here, right in the mixer, but still quiet somehow - maybe as we were at the rear of the hostel. Stayed in a trple room with 2 others, room was nice, not bad rate, en-suite & tv. Kitchens ok, rest of hostel clean & staff ok. Nothing bad to say... more

I stayed at this YHA recently on a skiing holiday and this hostel exceeded my expectations. The hostel was located right in the centre of town only a short stroll from the station where the mountain shuttles depart and not far away from restaurants, cafes and grocery shops. The rooms were more like a hotel room than usual hostel room,... more

great location within walking distances of bars/restaurants and shops. i enjoyed it so much first time around in April that i returned there again in August during the ski season. easy access to get there via the airport..a $5 shutle bus to the town centre and then its a few minutes walk around the corner. hostel books all your needs... more

Didn't have the most pleasant stay here which in my experience is unusual for a YHA hostel. Let me start first by saying- this hostel is in Queenstown and we stayed there in winter: why do you go there then? For snow and to enjoy yourself. Unfortunately, this place, unlike the rest of Queenstown, hasn't quite grasped that it is... more

We were advised to book ahead in Queenstown as Coronet Peak had just opened for the ski season. This was unnecessary as everywhere had space and some nice looking places were doing deals. The YHA charged us a fixed rate and wouldn't budge and I'm sure we could have stayed somewhere much better for the same price. It took us... more

Being in queenstown we always expected to pay more than in other hostels but sadly you didn't get value for money & this place lets the YHA organisation down. Its recently been taken over by YHA having been a private hostel & hotel in previous lives. Sadly those previous lives are still resident - the room was clean & ok... more

Hello I stayed in Queenstown on 2 separate occasions, 4 days each and a month apart. I suppose I am a little luckier than the average cash-starved backpacker as most of my stay has involved staying with my 6 NZ cousins in Auckland, therefore I have a bit more dosh to pay for accommodation when away from the cuzs. Hence... more

I stayed two nights in a double room in this "hostel". It was pricier than any of the other YHAs that I stayed at while in New Zealand, but I definitely got a lot more for the money that I spent. This YHA is in a MUCH more convenient location that the other YHA, which is more on the outskirts... more
