Very good clean hostel with good vibes. The staff members are nice and kind. I was especially helped by a Japanese staff member called Ken. He showed me around places in Christchurch by his car. These days with him gave me fantastic memories. I will definitely come back to this hostel again. :) Thank you!

Hostels that guests love in Christchurch
- Avg. price/night: £66.538.6Scored 8.6FabulousRated fabulous· 4,440 reviewsWe had a double bed room near the top of the building, so I can only say about that. Which was a very nice apartment, kitchen and living area all very clean and comfortable as were the beds. Nice views from a higher up room. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Location was close enough to the centre with the shops and restaurants that it was an enjoyable walk. They offer a cheaper shuttle bus service to the airport which is helpful if travelling on a budget. But they were also able to order us a taxi. Hotel great.

- Avg. price/night: £63.208.5Scored 8.5Very goodRated very good· 361 reviewsFar comfier, cleaner and cheaper than other hostels we've been to NZ. We had a private room. Amazing how more than one pillow each can make you v comfy. Bathrooms next door were v clean. Kitchen and lounges were good. Location excellent. If other Haka Houses are like this then I regret not going to more instead of some of the ones Kiwi Experience align with. I was ill at the time and this was great for me to rest for a day and night.
