Nomads Queenstown Reviews

I found this hostel very good and modern,it can be a bit too big at times and a wee bit hard too meet new people,this hostel gets all the people from the kiwi bus so that's a pain because they all stick together,they do diffrent events tho which is good and try too get everyone involved and reception are very friendly so all up it is a grand place too stay

Great place to stay! Warm, clean & great people! Even made the effort to move us when our room mate was 'hard' to room with! The fire alarm at 6am wasn't so fun but that wasn't Nomads fault! Definitly recomend as a place to stay. Great location as well!

Very pleased with our stay. Perfect room with friendly and helpful staff (especially Denny and Caz) Loved the free meals and fires!.. Number of housekeepings in the morning could get annoying when hungover!.. Overall had a blast at nomads Queenstown, would definitely recommend to others :) xx

Best hostel i have stayed in

Your awesome guys!! I have been here for over 4 weeks now and I really like this place. It's always clean, good service, friendly staff, and close to everything you need. Special thanks to Richard who has been very helpful all the time!!

Absolutely love this hostel, definitely one of my favourites so far on my travels!! Great atmosphere, really sociable, clean and fantastic staff, especially Rich, Denny and Ronan, they all go out of their way to help, really makes a great difference and is very much appreciated! Love the fact the beds are slightly bigger than the average sized single bed. Dislike it being a "dry" hostel, feel like a child with the "bin checks"!!

How a hostel should be!!

I arrived thinking I would stay one day and move to a house...stayed 1 week. I did not know by then that it was after traveling the world for almost 1 year the best hostel Ive ever stayed at!!!! It is spotless, the location is perfect, amazing common area with pool table, fun activities planned for every day with great prizes to win, discounts and free drinks every day at The bar where everyone meets, and the staff!! You guys make it rock, special thanks to Denny...she is the best! WOOH WOOH!!

Great location, helpful staf but lets itself down (as do the majority of hostels in NZ to be fair) with a lack of free internet. Why do all hostels charge? Also operates a 'no alchohol' policy. I can understand why this is in place for the alcoholic tourists of the world, but it can feel criminalising when you just want to drink a casual supermarket bought beer without having to stand outside in the cold.

Had a great time at Nomads when i was in Queenstown, met fantastic people in my room as i was travelling by myself ! The staff was always smiling and funny talking on the mic. Rich at the reception (during night shifts) has been great ! He is definitely someone to keep in your staff ! :D Thanks Nomads !!! Frenchy.

Not bad for such a huge hostel, thought it would be a bit loud and busy but the no drinking rule was awesome for keeping the riff raff out. Staff are amazing and knew everything there was to know about Queenstown. Showers leaked a lot on the floor in my room but apart from that a pretty good stay. Would come back for sure :)

Everything was really nice, you get free breakfast and small dinner between the allotted time if you wanted to save money and the staff always make sure there's loads of stuff for you to do. My one down point is that my bed was breaking the whole time I stayed there and someone did come to check on them but nothing was done about it.

Enjoyed my stay here. Good facilities, clean and spacious. Staff dressed as penguins?? Always entertaining!

Nice hostel with good dorms. Funny staff

Excellent friendly staff! Made our stay in Queenstown Amazing!

Great great staff!!!! Very helpful and nice. However, if you want a peaceful hostel without partying people, it might not be the right place. If you are though, it's probably the best place ever! You don't have to know people to make friends in that hostel and it offers a lot of deals (bungy jumping, happy hours, etc.)

Excellent setup overall. A little on the pricey side for the dorms and, ($4 a day or $12 a week for net) remains an expensive hidden sting to the backpacker. I would argue that this is the best Nomads hostel in New Zealand none-the-less. Great mix of people and party/reserved nights. Music is rarely heard from the rooms. Atmosphere as always can be dominated by a flood of kiwi experience kids, or groups of obnoxious units. If you want a good night out however as a single person, Hostel suffices.

Very big hostel but the kitchen is great!!! I would prefere to have bigger lockers but that's because I'm used to haven that.

Super friendly staff... Dont know them all by name but Ronan and Denny stick out...extended our stay at late notice and they bent over backwards to ensure that we were satisfied with our rooms on each occasion....the hostel is spotless and there are no shortage of friendly staff on hand to help you with all problems...cant comment on the free breakfast and dinners but plenty of people seemed to enjoy them....ive been travelling for 7 months now and have been to many hostels, but this is the best

As good as you expect a central Nomads should be.
