First place I checked into upon arriving in NZ. Staff are great, facilities are good, and clean. Sure it can get noisy at weekends out in the street but who cares? It's a hostel! The rooftop and kitchen level are kept clean and are great to spend time. Big drawers under the beds mean loads of space to keep valuables locked up, just bring a padlock of course. Highly reccommend staying here.

Had a brillant stay was really stoked to have my room upgraded,staff were friendly and wish that had it not been the RWC that I could have stayed for longer. Also not having to not pay a bond for a key was an added bonus. On the whole I will be back Cheers Jayse.

I had the best time staying at this hostel while traveling through New Zealand. The staff was great and I met many new friends from all over the world that were my age. Worth staying at Nomads :)

Cool bar! The dorms were good though the rooms are small. It's located in the city center, so can have some great nights in the bars and clubs around the hostel. It has a very good value and I can recommend it especially to young backpackers who like to party. Parking is really expensive in the hole area if you think about a rental car in Auckland. I will stay in this hostel again next time!

Only stayed one night before my early flight out of Auckland. It was a good stay. Much better then the other hostel I stayed at in Auckland. The courtyard bar and pizza restaurant is a real bonus and the rooftop kitchen...fabulous. I wish I had stayed there instead of the other place.

Very good stay there, but kitchen not so clean. Staff too busy to answer your questions. Good location, nice pub. The 5$ beer/house wine rules are not so clear. Pretty good in overall.
