Very convenient to town Centre, bus services and the beach.

Great location for coastal walkway, right in town. Bars, restaurants all handy. Manager was so friendly and welcoming, also very efficient. Best hostel I've stayed in NZ. ##### Donna Stayed 4 nights in Jan 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jo Jul 17, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Have stayed there for 3 nights so far, 1 next week. Everyone has been great. Some of the mess is from the Backpackers being lazy and not doing their dishes and leaving pizza boxes for the staff to clean up. Very good for the price. ##### Jo Stayed 1 night in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Faye Mar 21, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Property was very clean and tidy. Staff were extremely friendly and helpful. Very conveniently located for dining, shopping, broadwalk, bus terminal. Only issue is no parking which could be alleviated by putting a blurb about where you can park. One thing said there was parking and another said no parking?? ##### Faye Stayed 1 night in Mar 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### anna Jan 11, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The location was brillriant. Chris was super friendly, welcoming and helpful. Everything was great. Unfortunately, sleep was disturbed by the noise from the bar / party next door until the small hrs. Plus we had thought that the backpackers had a car park, which it didnt. Facilities were good though and we would stay there again. ##### anna Stayed 1 night in Jan 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### David Jul 22, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The only thing I didn’t like was parking. I had a car and there was no parking facilities near the backpackers. Outside of this it more more than adequate! The attendant was friendly & helpful! ##### David Stayed 1 night in Jul 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### T Nov 30, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Disliked: Property conditions & facilities Everything was excellent. Except the mattresses. The mattresses were so bad that one of our group said they would have preferred kicking a policeman in the nuts and spend the night in the cells. Even the noise of the bar directly under the backpackers was bearable. The mattresses - not so much. Staff were friendly, and helpful. The kitchen was large enough for several parties to be cooking at once and you can’t beat the location. ##### T Stayed 1 night in Nov 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Barbara Jan 19, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Enjoyed two nights in the family room. Excellent value with air conditioning, TV and own bathroom. All linen supplied. Excellent location right in the centre, next to mall, restaurants and costal walkway. Excellent staff service. I would have liked to rate cleanliness higher, but some guests did not always leave the kitchen clean or wash and dry their dishes. ##### Barbara Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jo Jul 10, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities I meant to put 2 stars about property conditions. It is clean and beds you cannot fault. The building and some chattels could eg paint and carpets. Some Backpackers leave the kitchen messy too. Thry need ##### Jo Stayed 1 night in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### MARIO Nov 24, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Good price. The room was big enough for the 3 of us. The beds were very comfortable. Staff is nice and they were kind enough to let us check in after hours. Good location right in the city centre. The only bad thing is that the area looks a bit sketchy and unsafe but nothing happened ##### MARIO Stayed 1 night in Nov 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Tim and Regina Jul 21, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We enjoyed our stay.

The only thing I'd take issue with is the parking which you have to either pay for from 9am-5pm or not drive at all. Don't let this overshadow your stay though, as it's a lovely place. ##### Jack Stayed 1 night in Jan 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Shaun Apr 28, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities . ##### Shaun Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hotels in Istanbul](https://www.expedia.ca/Istanbul-Hotels.d178267.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Romantic Hotels in Vancouver](https://www.expedia.ca/Vancouver-Hotels-Romantic-Hotel.0-0-d178315-tRomanticHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Montreal](https://www.expedia.ca/Montreal-Hotels.d178288.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Toronto](https://www.expedia.ca/Toronto-Hotels.d178314.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Canada](https://www.expedia.ca/Destinations-In-Canada.d31.Hotel-Destinations) > > [Hilton Vacation Club Aqua Sol Orlando West](https://www.expedia.ca/Orlando-Hotels-Liki-Tiki-Village.h692650.Hotel-Information) > > [MarriottHotelsResorts Hotels in Barcelona](https://www.expedia.ca/Barcelona-Hotels-Marriott-Hotels-Resorts.0-0-d179992--bMarriottHotelsResorts.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Salvatores Grand Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Buffalo-Hotels-Salvatores-Grand-Hotel.h9743017.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Carleton Place](https://www.expedia.ca/Carleton-Place-Hotels.d6153315.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Motels Algonquin Park](https://www.expedia.ca/Algonquin-Park-Motels.d6343000-aaMotels.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Boutique Hotels in Turks and Caicos](https://www.expedia.ca/Destinations-In-Turks-And-Caicos-Boutique-Hotel.0-0-d184-tBoutiqueHotel.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > > [Citadines Tour Eiffel Paris](https://www.expedia.ca/Paris-Hotels-Citadines-Tour-Eiffel-Paris.h447033.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Hamilton (YHM) to Rome (FCO)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yhm/fco/hamilton-to-rome) > > [Flights from Vancouver (YVR) to Santa Ana (SNA)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yvr/sna/vancouver-to-orange-county) > > [Flights from Myrtle Beach (MYR) to Detroit (DTW)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/myr/dtw/myrtle-beach-to-detroit) > > [Flights from Kelowna (YLW) to Austin (AUS)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/ylw/aus/kelowna-to-austin) > > [Flights from Edmonton (YEG) to Phnom Penh (PNH)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yeg/pnh/edmonton-to-phnom-penh) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Vienna (VIE)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/vie/toronto-to-vienna) > > [Flights from Calgary (YYC) to Cancun (CUN)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyc/cun/calgary-to-cancun) ### Activities ### Packages > [Disneyland® Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Disneyland-Resort-Anaheim-Resort.d6025613.Vacation-Attraction) > > [Ucluelet Aquarium](https://www.expedia.ca/Ucluelet-Aquarium-Ucluelet.d6193711.Vacation-Attraction) ### General > [Visit Dundas](https://www.expedia.ca/Hamilton-Dundas.dx6238627)
