Property Description

Our Travellers hostel is a friendly place - it's spacious, clean and homely. Everyone says it has a nice feel to it.

All year round we have free, delicious, homemade hot chocolate pudding and ice cream served every night at 8pm. In winter there is a log fire, hot water bottles, warm duvets. We have a large selection of doubles, twins, small dorms and six share dorms.

Outside you'll find a well-used hammocks and plenty of outdoor spaces to be as social or quiet as you wish.

We have limited off-street parking, free parking on the street, and free luggage storage.

Just like your favourite cafe, we have great music (often because of guests who use the guitars & ukelele) and friendly, genuine people. We're just five minutes' walk from the main street - far enough away to avoid city noise but close enough that it's an easy walk to shops, cafes, etc. We attract a wide variety of nationalities and ages and we try to ensure that everyone feels welcome and enjoys their stay. Being a Backpackers we are not 5 star accommodation - our walls are not the thickest but the welcome will be friendly and the atmosphere caring and

We are open 8.30am - 12.30pm and 3.30pm - 8pm. If you arrive during the day when the office is closed please make yourself 'at home' until we get back.
Note - if you arrive later than 8pm please contact us to organise a late check-in (our office closes at 8pm)

Possibly my favourite hostel I’ve stayed in! The atmosphere was great, and the whole place had a lovely, cosy feel. Chocolate pudding in the evening was very nice too! I would not say the location was a problem at all, city centre was only a short walk along the river away.

Perfect for a couple of nights either side of visiting the Abel Tasman. Clean, good facilities and surprisingly social in the evenings due to the free chocolate cake.
