This hostel was the best i have stayed at during my time in New Zealand. The staff were fantastic, they would help you if you were in trouble and in need of assistance. The location of the hostel is great not to far from town centre. I would recommend my friends to stay here. Also if there was an activity... More

The hostel is well located in Taupo with a nice outdoor space and plenty of communal space. I opted to stay in a 4 bed dorm which was quite small and cramped, but perfectly adequate. The staff were really friendly and the hostel it seems aimed to make sure everyone had a good time but made sure the fun ended... More

I woke up in the morning finding out I lost my passport on a boat i was at a night before. They were extremely helpful, arranged a ride for me to catch up with the rest of my group, plus everyone was very pleasent and nice. great hostel. would recommend hands down. More

I have stayed here twice in the past and really like this hostel. It has a bar serving cheap drinks but still manages to steer away from being a party hostel and it's always quitet by 10:30pm in consideration for those who are up early. The staff are really friendly and helpful and there's a lovely outdoor area for chilling... More

my partner and I always stay here, the rooms are cheap and cheerful, and the en-suite bathroom is a real plus (especially for us older travellers) the bar is cheap and the staff always friendly. would highly recommend. More

As older travelers we appreciated the well supplied kitchen (though could be cleaner after meal times). Very friendly atmosphere and beer pong starts at 8 in the evening. But, the rooms are behind two sound proof doors. They have... More

Great location in the center of Taupo, atmosphere in the common areas was very conducive to meeting other travellers, and they have happy hour - pretty high scores all around. The front desk also helped us book bungy jumping, gave us directions to several different hot springs, arranged a shuttle for us, and there's free internet! We had a really... More

Stayed here for 2 nights while travelling around new Zealand. Our double ensuite was clean and well equipped. I thought the 5dollar chilli was good value and tasty. Only downside was the communal area was very small and quite noisy at night and it is right next to the bedrooms. The staff were knowledgable and offered advice on and arranged... More

A lovely place to stay- right in the heart of Taupo... very relaxed atmosphere with Staff that are always willing to help and beds that are too comfy to get out of in the morning. Free internet was a bonus, aswell as the live music and ocassional party games! A good place to stay for both those wanting to party... More
