YHA Gisborne Reviews

The hostel was beautiful, away from city centre(not too far), so was quiet. I was only 1 in my room. Great kitchen, awesome hot shower, comfortable bed. Good stay, thanks.

....loved the high quality bed linen.....many thanks

On the whole as a first time user of YHA it was positive with only the creakiness of the stairs and floor boards and the noisy nature of young alcohol drinkers that were the not so positive side of the stay. The staff were friendly, helpful and the facilities were adequate. Kitchen facilities were great and sufficient cold fridge storage helped quite a lot during our 7 nights stay there.

I really liked the lay out of the hostel and the social areas

I would have appreciated having a basin in the shower room to accommodate my needs. I found this useful at a recent backpackers. Altogether this YHA hostel was better value than the last backpackers we stayed at which was only $12 cheaper.

Ok for 1 or 2 nights - very nice and helpful staff. Hostel too far away from the center

Highly reccommend! Great staff, awesome atmosphire. I stayed in the female dorm and meet 2 great new friends that i have stayed in touch with. Left my laptop and phone chargeing and food in the fridge no problems! The 2 Cats are characters and made it homely. Even watching Harry Potter and eating soup with everyone in the lounge was fun :) That was a great ending to my stay, all in our pjs and swapping stories.

Good base to explore Gisborne region! We showed up a day early (our mistake) amd they only had a single available. We took it, and it was actually bigger (both room

Great to be able to hire a bike to get around Gisborne.
