Had a great stay here, parking was plentiful when I arrived (~3/4pm) - though I did note it had filled out by the time I returned from dinner, might pay to be early to get a good spot. Didn't get time to try the hot tub but it was clearly popular. There were lots of kea hanging around for that authentic experience

No complaints. It was a very friendly and accommodating place to stay. Remember it is primarily a backpackers hostel but caters for all. Owner was very chatty, pleasant and helpful. The vibe at the place was great and the room was simple but comfortable and adequate. A perk was the big pot of soup that theylaid on for anyone to share in for free. An amazing bonus to all.

Really great hostel - perfect location in the centre of the small Franz Josef town. Close to a few pubs and importantly the skydive centre. The staff were really friendly. They offered free veg soup every evening and the kitchen was very well equipped. Private room was comfy and the showers were great. Lovely touch to have the hot tub available too. Everywhere was very clean. Would definitely recommend.

Benjamin, the property owner, was absolutely amazing! Full of really helpful advice on all things Franz Josef and surrounding area. He will go out of his way to ensure that you have a wonderful trip, advise you on good days out/hikes and other excursions. He's always around, and so approachable, if you have any questions you won't feel afraid to ask them. He also makes an amazing soup every night, which is great and really unique amongst the hostels we have stayed in on our journeys. The other staff working there were also really friendly. Excellent location, parking was good, room was comfortable, and other guests were all very welcoming too. It has the feel of a really nice little community. Great hostel to stay in.

The front desk staff is super helpful and knowledgeable. Benjamin helped us figuring out how to make the most of our visit to the glaciers and a hike at Okarito beach.

Unfortunately the room looks worn down and the internet is extremely bad (forget about using it after 5 pm and 9 am). The place is more hostel than hotel.

We stayed at the single room with ensuite bathroom and we felt it was overpriced for what we got.

What a wonderful place to stay!

As soon as I arrived to check in, I was greeted with friendly staff. The gentleman who checked me in always greeted me when he saw me come & go, and he even remembered my name. I stayed in a private cabin with private bath, which also has a sink, fridge, microwave, hot water pot w/ coffee, tea, milk, sugar. My room was sooo comfortable, esp. the bed and the duvet, which helped me get some much needed rest & sleep. There was also strong wifi in my cabin. There was free breakfast, as well as free soup every evening. There’s a self-serve laundry room with washer & dryer, and you can buy laundry soap at reception. The hostel is next to the Wildlife Center, and just a short walk to all the restaurants and the grocery store. This place has a quiet & chill vibe. With the excellent, friendly staff, the comfy room, the chill lounge & common areas, I absolutely loved my stay here!

Average hotel for price. Small room with minimal cooking facilities ( microwave) however there is a community kitchen as well. Bed comfy though and nice linen. Location good if you want to walk to a bar or restaurant.

Great little place in Franz Josef. Amazing value for money. Very backpacker style and you get to meet a lot of travellers. Everything is basic but available. Wifi gets spotty when lots of people use it but still functional. As long as you dont expect luxury, its a great place to stay. Not noisy at all. Stayed in the private room with ensuite.
