I though I swore off hostels, but staying in the pod was an amazing experience. It was mostly older and/or relaxed people staying in the pods, so I was able to get my rest. It was nice to still get the hostel experience in the sense of meeting interesting strangers and then when I was ready to sleep i could just put in my earplugs and isolate myself in the queen size pod. The room I stayed in had 4 pods, we had a shared kitchen. there were a couple of toilets and bathrooms in the hallway that was shared with other pod rooms, and they were kept very clean. Downstairs was a bigger shared kitchen that was very complete. did most of my cooking downstairs, but it was nice to have a simple kitchen in the room to just make a sandwich or coffee.

The organized activities were fun and really helpful for meeting others! Though I was traveling alone I immediately found people to do things with. The staff themselves were also super friendly and charismatic. Position was perfect with everything just a few minutes’ walk away, and the vibes were great, the hostel had a lot of character because of the furniture and decor etc. (more than most others I’ve stayed at) which I loved. The beds were comfortable and everything was kept clean. I will absolutely stay here again if I come back to Queenstown!

The lodge was easy to find once we got into Queenstown. Our room was cosy, warm, quiet and surprisingly spacious! The unit we stayed in felt like a house. The shared kitchen was huge and was open plan. It led to the lounge which led outside to a secluded seating area for our unit. The shared bathroom facility in our unit was clean and toiletries were supplied. Everything was organised and well laid out for the guests staying. It was better than what I expected.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.
