Rainforest Backpackers Reviews

Would't it be a bette idea to put the bunk beds on the ground floor and the double bedrooms upstairs. We were kept awake well past midnight by the people above us and then woken up again at 4am by what seems to be someone jumping or falling from their bunk bed ! We thought it was another earthquake. Apart from not getting any sleep one night out of the two, we enjoyed our stay.

There was no cosy atmosphere. The living room is too small. The kitchen is too big. We had a water shortage and had to buy drinking water. The bedroom area was very noisy with doors slamming all the time.

Great place to stay. Giant cooking area, plenty of computers, great location.

Fantastic room with ensuite, tv, fridge and parking directly outside. Lots of people and groups with a good overall atmosphere. Large kitchen but not well equip with cleaning utensils so difficult to keep clean. Good place would stay again.

Normal, nothing spectacular. Dorm room a bit small for 4. Kitchen is big. Insect repellent should be provided as too many insects this time of the year

This place was fine, but not special.

Hot tub was a great addition just a bit too hot guys!!

We had a brilliant time at this hostel. There are plenty of facilities on offer and it is not far to the local supermarket. The bar on the complex is great, the staff are very friendly and it has an excellent atmosphere! The staff organise various different games such as a pool competition and a dancing competition so it is very easy to meet other people! There is also a spa available for free use during the day and meal offers.

Dorms could do with a bit of upgrading. Good kitchen.

I love Rainforest backpackers, I've stayed here before & will always go back! Sometimes the people from the large bus companies can be a little disrespectful of others staying there, we had some pretty noisey people staying in the room above us but I guess you get that everywhere!

Best value hostel we visited. Definitely recommend for winter if you're interested in the glaciers.
