Hostels in Otago, New Zealand

The location was nice, with it being only an 8 minutes walk into town centre. The kitchen was clean enough for us and so are the bathrooms. However, the wifi was not so great. We had to use our own mobile data, but if you're fine with that then it's a good place for a short stay, which was the case for us considering if you're planning to be out travelling for most of the day anyways. The staffs were all also very lovely and helpful.

The place is spacious and the location is excellent. It is right next to the main road. After watching the little penguins, you can buy fast food nearby before returning to the hostel. The room is spacious and there are staff on duty at night. You can park at the door, which is very convenient

good stay and good location. the shower pressure and toilet setup impressed me most.

The surroundings are beautiful! Transportation is incredibly convenient, with direct access via Airport Bus Route 1. It's right next to Queenstown's most bustling area, and there's a large supermarket nearby for groceries. Plus, there are two kitchens available for use. Excellent value for money. Perfect for solo travelers.

This was a very clean and comfortable hostel. Even though it's a dormitory, the beds offered a good sense of privacy, which made my stay very reassuring. The location is incredibly convenient, right in the center of Queenstown, perfect for sightseeing and dining out. The common areas and kitchen facilities were well-equipped, and the staff were very friendly. I highly recommend it, especially for solo travelers. I would definitely want to stay here again if I come back to Queenstown!

We were blown away by the room and the service! The rooms are large, modern, with a fully equipped kitchen, quality bed linens, and the room was clean and tidy. The fluffy robes were a nice touch. We entered the room on a cold night, and the owners had turned on the heat pump so it was lovely and warm which was very thoughtful. We will only stay here anytime we are back in Dunedin!!

Located on a city street, with various shops nearby. The front desk is staffed from 2 PM onwards. It's a 3-minute walk to Lake Wanaka, and about a 25-minute leisurely stroll to the Lone Tree. Enjoying the natural scenery along the way in the early morning is very pleasant and comfortable. If you want to stargaze at night, even walking to the nearby lake, you'll still be affected by the brightness of the streetlights. It's next to a large supermarket and a 5-minute walk to the food truck park, making it convenient for finding food. There are fewer parking spaces than rooms, so if the lot is full upon arrival, you'll need to park in a nearby park, and be mindful of the paid parking hours. The room has a sofa, a full dining table and chairs, a bar, and a basic kitchenette. However, the pot had food residue, which made us question the overall cleanliness of the utensils and made us hesitant to use them. The fixed showerhead in the bathroom was a bit inconvenient, and the room's brightness was dimmer than shown in the photos.

Best view ever! Haka House Queenstown has an amazing location right in front of the lake, with breathtaking views every morning and evening. The room was clean, comfortable, and well maintained. The staff were friendly and welcoming, and the atmosphere was peaceful. It is also within walking distance to the town centre, making it very convenient. I would definitely stay here again on my next trip to Queenstown! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Facilities: The facilities are excellent. It has a kitchen where you can cook, and the cutlery and cookware are as shown in the picture. The suite has TVs and heaters in both the living room and bedroom, making it very warm. The bathroom is spacious, and there's plenty of counter space around the sink for your belongings. Free parking is provided, and it's very convenient to park right below your room. Cleanliness: The place is clean and tidy. The countertops were dust-free, and I didn't find any dirty spots. Location: The accommodation is in a great location, surrounded by several motels. It's in the city center, making it easy to get to all the main attractions. You can walk to the University of Otago campus in five minutes and enjoy a leisurely stroll there. Dunedin Railway Station and the Cathedral are also very close, so you can explore the city on foot. Service: The service was the absolute best! This hotel is run by a couple. When we checked in, the wife assisted us. She warmly and kindly recommended places to visit and even drew them out on a map for us. It's the first time I've encountered such thoughtful hosts. That highlighted map was incredibly helpful for our itinerary in Dunedin. I heard both husband and wife are very kind, warm, and friendly. If you're looking for a place to stay for a night in Dunedin, this is definitely an excellent choice.

The capsule pod beds have really nice pillows,bedding - which is extremely rare in hostel, but that does not apply to standard bunk rooms. The kitchen has everything you could want from basic items such as pasta and rice to coffee, hot chocolate, tea. They have a very large selection of herbs and spices and kitchen has everything from instant pot to steamers, rice cookers to air fryer. It is a very small hostel, the lounge is in the reception with just one U shaped sofa, all bathrooms are through reception, and the kitchen really has just 2 big tables. But honestly the great pillows make up for the lack of corners to hang out in :)
