Everything you could need at your finger tips. ##### Thomas Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Stuart May 2, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness Location wad very good ##### Stuart Stayed 1 night in Apr 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### SHUNSUKE Jul 9, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities It was clean and the location was good ##### SHUNSUKE Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Scott Jul 18, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Very nice, well managed, homely facility In a magnificent setting… Will definitely be back ##### Scott Stayed 1 night in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Gloria Apr 9, 2024 Liked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Beyond all expectations this place absolutely amazing, the owners are very friendly and welcoming ##### Gloria Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Yau Mar 28, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Good view and easy arrived ##### Yau Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Jayr Dec 17, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Fantastic! Clean! ##### Jayr Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dustin Feb 8, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Excellent place to stay in Aoraki Mt Cook Nat'l Park with beautiful views and plenty of amenities. We appreciated the on site laundry, lounge areas, and the sauna! Dining options are limited in the park (\~3 restaurants). Even though they're all good, you may want to plan ahead and bring groceries to take advantage of the communal kitchen area at the hostel. Helpful and friendly staff keep everything clean and tidy. We loved our experience here! ##### Dustin Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kristen Nov 26, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Hostel itself is very clean, excellent staff, workable kitchen, etc. The only down side is that it’s a short drive or a long walk to most trailheads & of course any other loud/inconsiderate guests. The place is great though! ##### Kristen Stayed 1 night in Nov 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Dolor Jan 16, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Easy access to most hiking area, amenities clean and comfortable, friendly staff, affordable. The noise level is way too much though. It's expected on shared rooms/ accomodations, however, banging of doors and conversations of the next door occupants can still be heard past 11pm. ##### Dolor Stayed 1 night in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Chihiro Aug 2, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities There were really clean and modern kitchen and lounge. But it’s a bit pity that the dryer place didn’t work well when I stayed. ##### Chihiro Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Natasha Oct 21, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Newer and larger building compared to the Queenstown location we stayed at! Really comfy mattresses and the rooms had a mini fridge and plenty of hooks and hangers. The kitchen was very large and the hostel was very clean. Walls are a bit then but no issues with ear plugs! ##### Natasha Stayed 1 night in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### SHASHA Jun 18, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Location is wonderful. There are no many options for budget travelers around Mt Cook. Yet it is worth to visit. Staff are friendly. Price are competitive. ##### SHASHA Stayed 1 night in Jun 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Amanda Oct 10, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Hala house is beautiful , we booked a private room with two twin beds. Staff was kind and had a packet waiting for us for late check-in. Plenty of parking. Facility is nice and clean Room was clean and nice. The views from outside our window was stunning I’m giving them a 4/5 instead of a 5 because of a few sticks in the mud : 1) the shared bathroom across from our room. I actually liked the design they have the toilet and shower separate , however the shower room door and lock sticks and I didn’t know that ,and I was stuck in there for a good five minutes trying to get out… the next day when my partner went to shower I forgot to tell him ( I’m horrible I know ) and the same thing happened. Also the shower drain was clogged so you had to slow your shower down to a trickle while you stood in an inch and a half of water No complimentary coffee/tea: I know this is a silly thing to get stuck up on, but coffee is my elixir of life. We got there late and didn’t have time to pick any up, there were not any packets in our room so I went downstairs to look for some, they had a machine in the lobby but you had to pay over three dolllars a cup and it was broken and wouldn’t work. I think some packets of complimentary tea or coffee is a small gesture to guest that goes a long way for them Overall pretty good stay. Mt cook is stunning and there is so much to see there ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/74994c9f-f37d-4af3-90ee-6572629637a9-1760121501262.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Amanda Stayed 1 night in Oct 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Karen Feb 27, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Clean and seemed to be well managed. Stayed two nights in an 8 bed dorm. Deducted one star as the internet wasn't working for a few hours the first morning. ##### Karen Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Andrew Feb 23, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Room description was inaccurate- there was zero air conditioning available in the rooms. The only option were fans/heaters that did not work properly, or open the windows which resulted in freezing temperatures overnight. Bathrooms got incredibly dirty quickly in the mornings, but overall stay was ok with a great location and a good restaurant next door. ##### Andrew Stayed 1 night in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Eva Apr 15, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Room for 8 I had a late check in and I forgot to let them know but luckily then left the key with my name on it in an envelop. The place was very clean. It looks new and simple. Staff were nice. I will be back for sure. ##### Eva Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Lee Jan 5, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness #### Disappointing stay. This was rated as a 4 star hotel on hotels. com and on arrival it turned out to be a backpacker hostel with shared shower and toilet facilities. Not something that was evident when booked. TV didn't tune to channels, no facilities within the room, WiFi was poor and no breakfast available. The room, however, was clean and well kept but the hostel was noisy. Left very early, very disappointed. ##### Lee Stayed 1 night in Jan 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Caleb Nov 14, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Disliked: Amenities Really liked the property - easy to park, great access to Mt. Cook and everything is beautiful around this area! Staff was great, but the one downside (that didn't effect me) is if you arrive after the staff leave, you will have difficulties getting in if you failed to contact the property before getting there. They are nice enough to leave all the keys where you can still get into your room, but it requires that you know the code to the door, which you would not know if you do not check in with the property before arriving. While the bed was mostly comfortable, it was not quiet until well after when I wanted to sleep and unlike most hostels, people were not very aware/kind of others need for sleep. This is the second Haka House I've stayed in, and none of them provide towels, which makes me very unlikely to ever go back to one - who doesn't need to shower? And what traveler is bringing a towel with them??? Also the rooms were quite hot until well after 2AM, even when it was only 50F outside. Not an excellent hostel, but the location was superb! ##### Caleb Stayed 1 night in Nov 2024 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hotels near Comerica Park](https://www.expedia.ca/Comerica-Park-Hotels.0-l6034762-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Bahia Principe Grand Tulum - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Akumal-Hotels-Bahia-Principe-Grand-Tulum-Newly-Renovated.h870784.Hotel-Information) > > [Marriott Niagara Falls Fallsview Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Niagara-Falls-Hotels-Marriott-Niagara-Falls-Fallsview-Hotel-Spa.h120155.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Kelowna](https://www.expedia.ca/Kelowna-Hotels.d3997.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Ramada by Wyndham Pincher Creek](https://www.expedia.ca/Waterton-Park-Hotels-Ramada-By-Wyndham-Pincher-Creek.h1853151.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Albuquerque](https://www.expedia.ca/Albuquerque-Intl-Sunport-Airport-Hotels.0-aABQ-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels near Halifax Waterfront Boardwalk](https://www.expedia.ca/Halifax-Waterfront-Boardwalk-Hotels.0-l6222244-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Downtown Montreal](https://www.expedia.ca/Downtown-Montreal-Montreal-Hotels.0-n6058201-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Alpine Village Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Boone-Hotels-Alpine-Village-Inn.h9278686.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Dieppe (YQM) to Orlando (MCO)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yqm/mco/moncton-to-orlando) > > [flights from vancouver intl airport](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/airports/yvr/flights-from-vancouver-intl-airport) > > [Flights from Vancouver (YVR) to Toronto (YYZ)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yvr/yyz/vancouver-to-toronto) > > [Flights from Montreal (YUL) to Bengaluru (BLR)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yul/blr/montreal-to-bengaluru) > > [Flights from London (LHR) to Meaford (YOS)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/lhr/yos/london-to-owen-sound) > > [Flights from Ottawa (YOW) to Sioux Lookout (YXL)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yow/yxl/ottawa-to-sioux-lookout) > > [flights from mcclellan palomar airport](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/airports/cld/flights-from-mcclellan-palomar-airport) > > [Air India](https://www.expedia.ca/Air-India-Flights.cAI.Travel-Guide-Airlines) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to San Bartolome (ACE)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/ace/toronto-to-arrecife) > > [Flights from Brisbane (BNE) to Melbourne (MEL)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/bne/mel/brisbane-to-melbourne) ### Activities ### Packages ### General > [Visit Burano](https://www.expedia.ca/Burano.dx55020)
