It’s clean and the staff is friendly. There’s even a geothermal pool on site. The food at the bar is tasty and affordable. I think the place must have been recently renovated because it is so clean. We had a private room with two beds (a double and a twin) with private bath and kitchen (microwave, fridge, sink, kettle). It’s certainly nothing fancy, but a clean comfortable place to stay. ##### Craig Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2020 ### 8/10 Good #### Adam 20 Dec 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities #### Good hostel experience Overall it was a good hostel experience. Nice people working there, very accomodating. Great location, very close to the mountain.The dorm room near the entrance is adjacent to a bar so it was a little noisy til around 12:30 am, but that was no big deal. ##### Adam Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Anne 3 Aug 2019 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities #### Proper Hostel Good location for visiting the thermal pools and sightseeing. Bit of a younger crowd which may be appealing to some. Bar downstairs is lively and drinks are cheap. Parking is easy. Get what you pay for-proper hostel. No more, no less. Easy to book sightseeing activities. Yes, the town smells, but that’s not the Hostel’s fault. It smells like sulfur. ##### Anne Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Pammie, Nelson, NZ 4 May 2019 Liked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities I am pleased that the room that I've requested which is away from large crowd/noise was provided to me and my family.

Clean and spacious. Good location a short walk from town ##### Vicky Stayed 1 night in Mar 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Steph 26 Feb 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort #### Stay here! Staying in the Sanctuary area of the hostel was quieter and away from the noise of the nightclub especially on Saturday night. Friday night was so quiet I had the eight bed dorm to myself. The cleaners work really hard and are doing a great job. There isn't a lift and the stairs are a bit awkward but I spent 60 pounds for three nights worth it. Go to The Fat Dog Cafe, the cat cafe down the road and the park opposite the hostel has geothermal activity and footpools. Worth staying here and Rotorua is amazing. ##### Steph Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 6 Jan 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service ,Handy location close to the city and local attractions ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Dec 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 7 Dec 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great pool and service The staff were extremely friendly and helpful especially when I missed the bus to the Maori village. The pool is amazing 36-38 degrees can spend hours in there. The room was comfortable and had enough room. Only downside was the kitchen was dirty everytime I went in there. Bar opposite goes till midnight if you have one of the rooms on that side you can hear the music but it doesn't stay open too late. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Dec 2018 ### 6/10 Okay #### Mel, Palmy 23 Oct 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Lucky I had a few drinks otherwise I doubt I would have gone to sleep. Pretty noisy but what do u expect!! ##### Mel Stayed 1 night in Oct 2018 ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller 25 Aug 2018 Disliked: Property conditions & facilities #### Disappointing and rundown Base feels shabby and tired. Bathrooms were small and not very clean. Kitchen was dirty with damaged cupboards and hardly any space or crockery/cutlery, dirty fridges and no tea towels(all the dishes were in the draining rack!). Wish we had stayed at the YHA which looked new and very close by! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Steve, Hamilton NZ 10 Jun 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Clean, tidy and simple. Perfect location in the city. Right next to a bar which could be loud at night I imagine but that's half the reason for staying there ##### Steve Stayed 1 night in Jun 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 10 Mar 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Nice hôtel with à lot of facilities The staff is very compétent and gentle.

When i asked about this, the receptionist kind of laughed in my face which made me feel as though they did not care about the safety of my personal belongings. I felt that this represented the businesses lack of understanding towards their target market, people who are travelling from different countries with important documents such as passports, cameras and mobile phones. Apart from that, I enjoyed my time staying here. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Dec 2017 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 19 Nov 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Clean, decent place to stay Nice, clean room and beds; bring an eye mask as no curtains on room windows, but not a major. Comfortable bed, clean duvet and pillow ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2017 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 4 Jun 2017 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort The location is very near to the street where all the restaurant gathered. The bar next to it it's a bit loud, but it's fine as my room is on the other side of the hallway. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2017 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Priscilla Patrick, New Zealand 25 May 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Best Backpackers in Rotorua, NZ By far..this is the best hostel n chain of hostels in New Zealand.

Alakerran respassa ilmainen netti, mutta jos halusi omaan huoneeseen niin siitä sai pulittaa 4 dollaria. ##### Antti ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 21 Mar 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Bekvämt och rent.

Didn't hear people partying at all, which was surprising and a big plus. Room was clean with free coffee, it could use a renovation but it was fine. Located near the hot pools. Overall a good stay. ##### Amanda ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 15 Dec 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Clean and comfortable bed. 8 bed dorm room.A bit crowdy.

Location ok. Super friendly staff. In winter it's a bit cold in the rooms - heating was off and couldn't close widows properly. In summer should be fine. Outdoor pool is a big plus. ##### Lotoholik pl ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 14 Aug 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Können wir sehr weiterempfehlen.
