Great place to stay for 1 or 2 nights before/after island hopping. Busy but good atmosphere. Nice breakfast included. Stayed in 16bed female dorm - good security and allocated space. 2 bathrooms - just got a bit dirty by the evening :( Overall good though!

This was my last night in NZ and I'm sorry to say not a great hostel. The hostel itself was clean enough but the area felt really dodgy and unsafe:( There was a strange guy in my dorm (although this is not the hostels fault!) so I just felt uncomfortable here. The dorm was cramped with stuff -maybe due to people staying long term, I'm not sure. Sorry but wouldn't recommend.

Stayed here for 1 night - was really happy with it. Clean and good facilities. Some long term people in room :-/ But otherwise really good location! Plenty of space in dining areas etc. Would recommend!

This hostel is very central. It was clean and comfortable. Large tv lounge and really nice balcony overlooking the sea and Kaikoura. Nice stay

I loved this hostel! Its exactly as it sounds - a cosy,old country house feel,but with modern facilities! City is 15mins walk.I stayed in House 1,big spacious dorm room and also tv room,kitchen etc. I loved the personal touches like fresh eggs, a travellers cookbook and many other things. The sauna was great - didn't try the spa pool! I ended up staying 3 nights - and for the 3rd night I moved to House 2 - still nice but no communal tv area which made the kitchen a bit cramped. Would recommend!

I really liked this hostel! The staff were really friendly and helpful. It was quiet and security was good. The location at this time of year would not be suited for a long stay, but in summer I'm sure the place is buzzing with beach goers! Great cafe downstairs serving lovely coffee and muffins ;)

Massive hostel!! More like staying in a hotel! But each floor has its own kitchen. The rooms were a little bit cramped but clean. And although it has a massive bar/club - you don't hear the noise from it at night. Really good atmosphere in the bar, with good value drinks! :)

I stayed for 5 nights at Absolute and really loved it. It was so chilled out and the staff really made it for me. They treated people so personally and really cared. The hostel is immaculately kept and the pool was great. With a free shuttle up to the north beach or various walks it meant you could venture out if you wanted. Really good atmosphere, and a lovely place! Thankyou! :)

I stayed in an 8 bed female dorm and really liked it. Spacious and really clean! Great location. Only slightly annoying thing is if you buy the wifi - it doesn't work over in the back rooms where I was, so was a bit pointless as there is free slower wifi in reception.

Unfortunately my review on this hostel is more swayed by the people in my room, because it was horrible. However the place is really loud from the bar and people are in and out of the rooms really late - lots of noise outside if you were tired like I was the first night :( Great if you're looking for a party hostel. The kitchen was big and mostly clean, although NO-ONE put there dishes away so the draining boards are stacked high.

This is a nice hostel in a good location. I was in an apartment at the back so felt very separate from the hostel but I preferred that. Clean and friendly :)

This is a nice hostel although small. The kitchen is the only real communal place to sit. Good location- can walk into the city or take a train/bus. The bathrooms were immaculately clean and the lady who cleans is lovely. Only wish could have come in and cleaned the dorm each day as it was full of guys who were really messy and it did smell :( Would recommend this place though :)
