It was hard for me to sleep of those Bed Bunk, uncomfortable mattress and of my old age. It should be better room for myself. There was too many ladies of one men person. 5 ladies and 1 men.

We had a studio room, very small. There was no top sheet on the bed, dispensers in the shower weren’t working properly, air con would’ve bn nice. Otherwise clean and tidy and handy location

Was in 6 bunk ensuite cabin and it was amazingly clean and spacious. Beds were comfy too. Friendly staff. Lounge and kitchen area were very warm and cosy. 5 minute walk to town area and waterfront so reasonable location.

Stayed in a suite for one night. No complaints. Shower/bathroom felt like a locker room but water was hot. Several common areas to hang out and close to the lake.

Everything was good but my room stank. Can’t pinpoint what it was or if it’s on the staff or other people staying in the hostel.

Chill in sexy Wanaka
Stayed single room twin bed ensuite.
Private rooms are expensive in Wanaka. By far the first most expensive private room in NZ.
All good with essentials however which the bathroom are equipped with heater.
2 minutes walk to Four Square grocery and lots of eateries.
Only negative issue is bathroom is very cold in private room ensuite as there is no heater as compared to Haka Tekapo which has heater in both room and bathroom.
The detergents are diluted with 10% detergent and 90% water, guess that’s to save cost.
I bought my own detergent (not expensive from brand Pam’s) from four square to make sure the oily utensils are cleaned and oil free.

The location is fantastic, and the amenities were excellent, making it a comfortable base for exploring the area. However, I did encounter a few cleanliness issues. Despite requesting a thorough vacuuming of spiders and ants, they remained in the same spots when we returned, which was a bit disappointing. With a bit more attention to room upkeep, this place could be perfect.

Limited on-site paid parking but the near by area allows overnight parking from 6pm to 8am. Then 240 min free parking during 8am to 6pm. No re-parking during the day after using your 240min free parking. Since we are out during the day, it worked for us.
Most guests try to keep the kitchen clean but the kitchen can use a few improvements. Like…. Fixing the chipped shelves/counter top, providing a (window) squeegee to clean/wipe the wet stainless steel countertop . This would reduce the need of towel cleaning also. Add food scrap strainers to the sinks.

Haka house is a very easy choice for financial savings with clean bedding. On the flip side, there is no monitoring of how the kitchen area is maintained during/after use.
It’s obvious that the “children” are not monitored to be sure they clean up after themselves. I would expect an hostel to have some type of policy in place during busy kitchen hours. Every kitchen use required avoiding someone’s mess that was left behind.

Overall it was a good night stay. Although we had the view as the room was in front, the noise of others can be heard like footsteps and even the smell of people smoking is coming inside the room.
Daniel
Friendly vibe, great location
Deann
Fantastic staff, and bed was comfy. Always love the private pods in dorm rooms with haka
Robert
Good location close to the main part of town. The water pressure was really poor and the heaters in our room and bathroom were also really poor. The shared areas were nice and the fireplace in both were great. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Overall probably pretty good for a hostel but still could be better.

Great location, nice facilities and staff. Super close to awesome food and shopping options as well as the lake.

We know that this is a hostel but at least there should be a time for other guests to minimize noises. We stayed at an ensuite private room no. 3, next room no. 4 who were so noisy, at 11:45pm I couldn't help myself but knocked on their wall to signal that they were so noisy. Even just a notice on each room's wall no minimize the noise from 11pm, other guests need to rest and sleep. Thanks.

Good budget accomodation
We stayed for 3 nights (not in a row) in the ensuite unit .
We were looking for budget accomodations at Wanaka. Unit was pretty small and basic, but sufficient for a couple. It had good shower. Communal kitchen was clean and managed. However, in the last stay sheets were not clean. Noise could be heard from the corridor if that might an issue. Overall we had a nice stay, and would recommend it as budget accomodation.

Charlene
Alright for a night!
Has everything you need for a nights stay- good facilities and plenty to keep you occupied. We stayed in a private room with shared kitchen/bathroom facilities. The only downside was the bathroom was abit dated and the shower leaked a lot! Also the hooked lock on the door allowed it to open slightly for others to see in but apart from that everything else was great and would stay again.
Steven
Good YHA
Good quick stay. I had a private room and it was perfect for the night. I was glad there was a bathroom in the room and I didn't have to go out into a cold hallway. I'd recommend the place.
Jalyn
It was across from the lake and conveniently located next to the grocery as well as many food options.
Verified traveler
For a YHA it was nice enough, very nice bathroom and shower facilities. Communal kitchen area also very good.
Verified traveler
It was in a great location but I found the bed too hard. Personal preference as everything else was fine.
Alice
Clean, simple, safe and conveniently located!
The hostel was great for what we needed. A clean, safe, conveniently located place to sleep and rest. The view from the hostel was beautiful, there was a big kitchen and common area for people to use. It felt like a nice community, a more authentic experience. The room was small and the hostel itself had no frills to it which we were completely fine with.
Verified traveler
Stayed in a double room with ensuite and found both the bathroom and room very clean and comfortable. Great kitchen facilities and excellent location in walking distance of everything. Staff were also helpful on where to go and what to do. Would definitely stay again!

Wonderful hostel
Staff were so friendly and helpful, recommended me to do a 2 hour kayak ride that I thoroughly enjoyed! Clean and spacious, for the 3 bed dorm I got the bed that wasn’t a bunk and it included a private shower and toilet!

Great place within walking distance to lake front. Clean accommodations with plenty of room to cook and make space out on the front decks.
Simona
We only stayed for night and had a private room with private bathroom, which looked it was built lately. Very clean. I don't know how the rest of the hostel look like, but we were satisfied with our private room. Staff was really nice. For short one night stay, it's all you need.

Comfy hostel with equipped communal kitchen and is within walking distance to a nearby supermarket. However, the staff at reception is a bit disappointing during check in as he was having a chit chat with another person and ignored us till the chat was over.
Deanna
Central and cosy
Close to town center and across the road from the New World. The fire was going and definitely perfect for the winter season. Room was good size I found bed comfortable hubby found it to hard but hey ya can't please everyone. Toilet hadn't been cleaned so did it myself. The reception staff were good. Easy check in process and simple check out both guys friendly and helpful. Definitely recommend for affordable comfortable accommodation

bed bugs n old tired hostel
I had been to a couple of YHA in this trip n this is my worst stay in past 3 weeks.
i gotten bites from bed bugs, bed are making noise... the entire place looks v tired n old.
My room mate is using the bathroom/toilet for 1.5hrs, this is really bad for ensuite.
i paid cash upon arrival n was charged again in my credit card. issuing a receipt is not their policy. Although refund is done after appealing to them, it is a hassle to do so. The staff, Jane told me there is no record in their system that is indicated paid when i went back to the hostel to appeal.
Refund was credit back to my credit card few days later but shortfall of a few dollars just because of their neglience n i need to bear their cost.
Kitchen is clean n neat though, toilet is narrow n tiny.
i gotten bites from bed bugs, bed are making noise... the entire place looks v tired n old.
My room mate is using the bathroom/toilet for 1.5hrs, this is really bad for ensuite.
i paid cash upon arrival n was charged again in my credit card. issuing a receipt is not their policy. Although refund is done after appealing to them, it is a hassle to do so. The staff, Jane told me there is no record in their system that is indicated paid when i went back to the hostel to appeal.

nice hostel, well located
Nice hostel, very well located to appreciate the stunning Lake Wanaka. Facilities were good and rooms clean. Slight issue with availability of hot water on one evening given numbers staying in hostel...
Overall very pleasant stay.

Very decent hostel.
We had a private room with ensuite and, while not new, it was nice and clean and had a good view of the lake. The location is also very good.
The kitchen was good for our limited purposes - just toast and coffee. We did not use it beyond that.

Nice backpack place close to lake.
I was amazed by all people stayed in the hotel. They keep kitchen and cookware clean. The facility is quite busy. The room we stayed in (we stayed in a private room with bathroom inside ) is a little small.
