Everything. I cannot fault this place. The staff are friendly and willing and warm, the kitchen is well equipped, spacious and clean, the bathrooms look like they’re from a bouji hotel, and the bunk beds are rock solid - none of that bed-swaying/metal clanking when people move in and out of them like usually happens in hostels. The added extras (filter coffee, pancakes at the weekend, yoga, creative classes) just help cement the hostel’s approach of wanting to do things differently/different standard. I don’t like spending lots of money on accommodation but this was SO worth it.

The location of the hostel was fantastic, I could walk to almost anywhere in Wellington. The place was clean, good facilities (plenty of bathrooms to go around between all the people staying). I liked that the dorms although shared could only be accessed by others in the same dorm.

Nothing.

Extremely welcoming, friendly, helpful, professional staff. Wonderful atmosphere. Location is perfect, very central. Rooms are beautiful and clean. So are the showers and toilets. Beds very comfortable with curtains for privacy.

Room had high windows where the corridor lights shone through, since I had a top bunk I had to use a sleeping mask.

Great location, comfortable rooms and beds, super clean. Loved the bathroom facilities.

Stunning location, amazing dorm, comfort ale. Everything you need from a hostel. So clean and tidy and free tea/ coffee too.

I asked for bottom bed because I’m scared of heights but they didn’t give me one.

Well equipped kitchen, free tea coffee and spices.

Exceptional Accommodation Facility; amongst the top 3 in the world. Staff, Location, Amenities, Comfort - all world class..

Only point of improvement was that the top bed in my room (probably not all rooms) had nothing to prevent the light from coming in from the top (only curtains on the sides). The ceilings were really high and had windows, so you would be woken up by the light once the sun got up.

Lovely hostel, had everything you might need or want!

There's a room on the second floor next to the bathroom. It's too loud. The sound of going to the bathroom all night, unable to sleep

Clean and comfortable

There was not much to dislike, but shelfs in all of the showers would be great.

The bed was big and I was lucky, as the wall had a metal beam, which I could use as shelf. Otherwise it would have been a bit crowded. Definitely one of the best hostels I visited and all the rooms were clean, and the kitchen really invited to cook and chat. The hostel is perfect for those looking for a hostel experience, but are willing to pay the little extra to have a fully functioning setup, style and comfort. Each floor has a common room with TV and the atmosphere invites people to chat with each other. To get pancakes for breakfast was also very nice.

Location, cleanliness, size, rooms

No windows in the rooms to get some breeze in

Very organised and clean kitchen with oil, coffee/thea, milk, and personal fridge boxes. Great showers, good beds

Lack of space in fridges

Atmosphere and location, good showers.

There needs to be more hooks in the bathroom stalls—both for the toilets and showers. More space on the bathroom counters too to prevent toiletry bags from getting wet, maybe some shelves installed would help. Also when I packed up my bag to go and got up from the floor, there was dust all over my pants. Though the hostel is generally very clean maybe some more sweeping in the rooms would be good. Also, watch your head on the bottom bunks! The top of the bed is a little low and I hit my head a few times.

This is maybe the best hostel I’ve ever stayed in. The hostel itself is beautiful. Very cool and modern sink fixtures in bathrooms, pretty wallpaper, nice furniture. The kitchen is pretty big and allows for a lot of seating, also more seating in the lounge area and by the laundry was great. It was extremely clean, and the pods were nice and private. Good labeling system for food in kitchen. Kitchen also had a lot of amenities, not only tea and coffee but olive oil, great cooking utensils, etc. Everyone who stayed there was friendly and respectful. They have cool free offerings like yoga classes and pancake breakfasts. The hostel has great vibes all around. It’s also in the best area, right by Cuba St which is the coolest part of Wellington.

Shower curtains and some hangers inside of a cabin would be great

Great hostel with option to meet other travellers. Very friendly stuff and excellent location

Probably a little bit pricey for a hostel

Everything, great kitchen, rooms, location,

Stayed only one night :( wish I was there longer

This was by far the best hostel I've ever stayed in. Can't believe it's a hostel...facilities felt like a high end hotel. Staff went above and beyond to make you feel welcome, even in a country where that might not always be the case with people in hospitality.

Facilities e.g toilet out of order, we can hear the footsteps of other people from the upperfloor

Walking distance to the attraction sites, clean

The hostel was great, the staff were so friendly and everything you'd need was provided. Loved the curtains around each bed and the extra bits like personal light, usb socket and big lockable drawer. It is a big, airy and light building with lots of space to hang out. I would totally recommend.

Bit above my usual budget but well worth it.

The best hostel I've used in NZ. Great staff. Lovely spaces and kitchen. Free drinks. Very close to cool shopping area/barbers/supermarket and lots of great food/coffee outlets. Only 5 mins walk from the harbourside and a sea swim. I parked my bike in the hostel and if you need any spares/repairs, there's an absolutely superb bike shop (Bicycle Junction) only 50m away. Comfy lounges on each floor with subscription TV. Lots of lively showers, toilets and washing machines. All super clean. Beds are proper enclosed wooden bunks with privacy curtain/socket/USB/light.
