Nomads Fat Camel Hostel Reviews

Really central hostel. The rooms are basic but clean and all right. Was there tow times. Good value for money.

Not a bad hostel for city centre Auckland. Really friendly, helpful staff & liked the layout of the apartment style rooms. The evening meal is a nice extra but it seems like a lot to upgrade for 8 dollars (with a drink) when at the Nomads in Wellington you can upgrade for just 2 dollars! The only thing that lets this place down is the bar - it could be full of backpackers in the evening but instead they play random, thumping music at dinner time and it just gets worse from then on.

Hostel is nice but atmosphere is not the best. Liked the location and the evening snacks! Can be cleaner from time to time.

Staff were spot on, mitch and the girl who checked me in were ideal. I had no money when I arrived and they let me pay when my money was sorted which was a great help.

Good location in terms of city centre and transport but can be very noisy due to bar downstairs. Lacking in atmosphere because of apartment style layout, people don't tend to use communal areas. Seemed grubby and dirty, my sheets were stained and extremely itchy. Staff seemed ok but when I needed to check out at 4.30am there was no one to give key to despite reception being 24hr. After waiting 10mins someone apologised and said his friend, the receptionist, was busy partying. Not a great hostel.

I killed about 5 big bugs in my bed and a baby cockroach, and at 4am i couldnt sleep anymore so i went to reception. The guy there was very helpful and friendly and gave me a new room which was better.

Awesome place to meet new people!

Really good hostel, clean,big, great location,good security... plus free dinner at check in day and luggage storage. Was a nice stay there!

Great stay, top bunk was a little uncomfortable, but the apartment style layout of the dorms was great for meeting people.

Nice stay, good ambiance in there, the staff is awesome. Kitchen and showers could be better and cleanliness as well but still ok. Nice activities in the bar downstairs ! And free meal every days !!

Room was above a nightclub that went on until after 2am then everyone spilled out hooting and hollering, great if you go to Minorca.

dirty kitchen, fridge full with old stuff no room (just one shelf in it) The room didn't had a window. Staff was friendly and the free dinner was ok.

Is very well located. Nice place and very nice staff. But poor housekeeping

The shower was a bit dodgy and the bunk bed was really wiggly. Other than that the place was fantastic and all the staff was friendly and helpful! Free dinner was a great bonus.

Thoroughly well placed and utilised hostel. Very happy to stay there and will definitely stay there again.

Nice evening with Irish stew and live music!

Clean place, bar downstairs, very cheap and right in the city. Not a bad hostel at all.

Great hostel - nothing but nice things to say about them. Location is basically across the street from a Metro stop and only 2 stops away from Bondi Beach. Area is lively at night, but can be a bit shady so be careful, but the security in the hostel is good regardless. Kitchen area is also very nice!

Nice place right in the city, rooms were quite warm would be my only gripe, nothing flash or anything to rave about, get what you pay for, it is a hostel remember!

$15 for 24h of wifi? NOT global gossip like every other nomads hostel in NZ. ghetto beds. super dirty. i have low standards and was not impressed
