AAnonymous UserHaka House Queenstown Lakefront is right by the lake, and the rooms are quite spacious. The 4-bed dorm has two beds on each side with individual storage lockers, offering great privacy. There are plenty of bathrooms, so you rarely run into anyone even during off-peak times. The lake is right outside the door, and there's a kitchen if you want to cook your own meals.
GGuest UserVery impressive and clean facilities. Didn't feel like a hostel. The huge kitchen was very well equipped with many microwaves, stove, etc. Even air-fryer ! Cutlery and cookware are top-notch and well-organized. The fridge has clear instructions. Free food from past guests were organized accordingly. Dining area and lounge area are like cafe setting ! The washing machine and drying machine are easy to use. Staff was very kind to assist as I inserted wrong coin into the wrong slot and was refunded the money. Highly recommended !!! New World supermarket is so conveniently next door. There's an open car park next to the park behind the hostel. Can park for free !
Cchiichan_desuyoBeing in the city center, it's very convenient to get around, and close to the InterCity bus and airport shuttle stops. It's also about a 10-minute walk to places for tours like Milford Sound. I'd say the location is excellent!
The room itself was very clean, and even though all the beds were occupied, the other guests in the room were quiet, which made it easy to sleep.
The building itself also looked very clean from the outside.
However, it was a shame that there were no power outlets near the beds, no hairdryer in the bathroom, and the common areas were incredibly dirty – though that might have just been bad luck with the other guests staying at the time.
Considering the price, if you can overlook these issues, it's probably worth staying. I'd consider staying here again.
PPatrick PhilipI want to like this hotel because it’s an old classic hotel and the staff and wonderful, but my room was run down and in need of renovation. The location is great. The Chinese Garden nearby is a ‘must visit.’
GGuest UserFirst off, the location is amazing! The beds are also fixed, so no creaking noises, which was great. I was a bit worried since it was a mixed dorm only, but it turned out better than I expected. Great location, great beds, great restaurant view. I'll definitely stay here again next time I visit. The only thing is, because it's in the city center, it can be a bit noisy at night, but since it's New Zealand, it usually quietens down by around midnight, lol.
AABDUL WAFI SHAIK BIN ABDUL RAHMANOur experience at this accom was excellent from arrival to departure. The check-in process was quick and straightforward, and the staff explained everything clearly. Throughout our stay, the team remained professional and helpful. Check-out was equally smooth, which was especially appreciated as we had a travel schedule to follow. The room was comfortable, and the overall service was reliable.
GGuest UserThe motel's location is a bit out of the city center, so a car is essential for getting around. You can park right in front of your room. The kitchen is well-equipped with everything you need, including pots and pans.
The male owner was very responsible. On our first night, the AC wasn't blowing hot air, and we woke up freezing at around 5 AM. We talked to the owner the next day, and he explained that the thermostat was set too high, preventing the AC from kicking in. He then restarted the outdoor unit and got it working. He even proactively knocked on our door to check if it was working correctly and brought us a small space heater. The owner also provided a small map, showing us places to visit in the city and how to get there.
ZZoushener999The wooden house has creaky floors, so you need to walk lightly. There's no private bathroom; about two to three rooms share one shared bathroom (toilet and shower). The interior decor is charming and unique, clearly a lot of thought went into it. Check-in is via a code, which can be a hassle if you miss the email – I personally spent a long time trying to find it. The single bed is quite narrow, but that seems to be a common standard abroad.
GGuest UserThe hotel is relatively deserted near the road, but fortunately there is a restaurant under the hotel. There are also many customers in the same group, but there is no supermarket nearby. You can wash clothes. But the hotel is generally old. The kitchen is not but the toilet is still relatively new and clean.
