There was very limited free parking. The parking available was very expensive. It was also very noisy outside late into the night. Neither of those things were the fault of Nomad though.

The hostel was very bright and clean

Balcony too close to the bar , rather noisy at nite

The location & kitchen

The dorms could be done with an upgrade with bunks that have a curtain for privacy. Showers were a bit tight, with only 1 hook for your clothes, towel and washing. Maybe a fold away shelf to put clothes on rather than the floor. Otherwise no issues

Offered an easy and effective way of going about the building, plently of toilets and showers for all guests. Room was as expected, bunk bed set up in the dorms. Full kitchen area and lounge area, has a sauna and cinema room but I didn't use them in my stay.

The luggage storage room is small considering the needs of the guests, I.e. lots of backpackers. It was a tight squeeze into the storage room and we had to move other bags to get to ours. Small inconvenience for secure storage for the day.

Location was great. It is an easy walk to everything including the gondola and wharf. The staff was helpful in understanding the property’s systems and facilities. We ended up not using the communal kitchen but it looked well supplied.

Obviously it can't be helped that it's noisy as we are in the middle of Queenstown.

Friendly staff, comfy beds, good atmosphere.

Kitchen gets super busy and the fridges smell. They say they deep clean on a Wednesday but pretty sure this doesn’t apply to the fridges

Great location and room were pretty good too

I stayed in the girls only dorms (wahine) and paid extra for it, however all the girls dorms were located right above 3 bars so it was so loud at night the room would shake with the bass from the music. This goes on until 4:00am. I don’t understand why we needed to pay more for safety and be rewarded with horrible sleep. If you are in Queenstown for hiking it’s best not to stay here. I also found some of the staff members to be very ambivalent when there were any issues as well.

It was in a central location and very convenient for getting around. The building and rooms were fairly nice and there were extra bathrooms in the hall with showers so we didn’t have to fight for them on days when we were all going out at the same time in the morning.

There was a dirty towel left in our bathroom, and we were woken up in the morning by some very loud visitors in the hallway. The walls are a bit thin. The price for parking near the hostel is insane.

The location was outstanding, and the staff were super helpful.

No soap in the hand soap in the bathroom

The downside of the location was that the bar/restaurant across the street was noisy and someone played loud music until 3am on a Saturday night. We could have used more hooks in the bathroom and by the door as you come into the room door to hang things. The balcony was nice but we didn't use it much because some of the concrete tiles were wobbly and moved when you walked on them. And there were only 2 chairs that were shared with our neighbors.

It was nice being close to the beach and waterfront. The room was nice, loved the windows and natural light. Bed was very comfy.

It was too close to town and it was very hard to sleep at night

I liked the communal area

1. It was noisy. Balcony doors should be offering some soundproofing, especially when there is a music club across the street. 2. Regarding bedding, the hostel only provided pillowcases for pillows, and the unchangeable duvet lacked a duvet case, where you could put duvet inside, that would offer a more hygienic solution. 3. Lockers were wery small 4.The electric sockets werent next to each bed, only in one place in the corner.

Big kitchen with enough place for storage food and fridges and spacious common area with tables and sofas. Hot free sauna 80C nice after long hike.

N/A! Thanks for helping to make our stay fabulous.

Value for money - everything was very 'compact' but we had a great double bedroom with a large balcony. Even though the venue was lively our room was very quiet. Staff were very helpful. Comfy bed. Great location.

Kitchen a bit small for amount of people staying at the hostel but lots of options to eat out in the area.

Nice rooms and shared bathrooms are decent. Great location. Large shared lounge area. Great reception services and desk to help you book activities in the area.

There are many bars behind Nomads. Drinking, noise until late night

Free extra bed

Parking can be trouble if you are there between 9am - 6 pm due to all the parking being either payed or 30min limit. It is right in the hubbub of all the shopping and busy area, so it was very noisy most of the night inside our room. Right across the street from a bar, and they make sure you know it. I've never seen a busier hostel in my life. They do a good job managing the amount of people and I never felt crowded or anything, but just surprising how many rooms and people there were. Had to download an app to unlock your room door.

For how busy it is, it was really clean with easy check in and check out. Staff was very nice and helpful. Bathrooms were very nice with lots of showers.

Middle of the party area, music still really loud in the room at after midnight. Dirty and really bad smelling hallways (but that is due to disrespectful customers and not the hostel)

Good location and service, friendly staff

There was no plug for a charge next to my bed. Also, it was a bit loud till midnight.

The location was pretty good. Any bus stops, city center, and the beach are within 5 minute's walk. The staff was nice to help plan my trip!
