Very nice hostel in a wonderful location. Everything in Mount Cook Villaga is walking distance... no need for a vehicle when there. Property is very well kept and staff are present for most of the day. Everything you could need at your finger tips.

Excellent place to stay in Aoraki Mt Cook Nat'l Park with beautiful views and plenty of amenities. We appreciated the on site laundry, lounge areas, and the sauna! Dining options are limited in the park (~3 restaurants). Even though they're all good, you may want to plan ahead and bring groceries to take advantage of the communal kitchen area at the hostel. Helpful and friendly staff keep everything clean and tidy. We loved our experience here!

Easy access to most hiking area, amenities clean and comfortable, friendly staff, affordable. The noise level is way too much though. It's expected on shared rooms/ accomodations, however, banging of doors and conversations of the next door occupants can still be heard past 11pm.

Hostel itself is very clean, excellent staff, workable kitchen, etc. The only down side is that it’s a short drive or a long walk to most trailheads & of course any other loud/inconsiderate guests. The place is great though!

The cost is very high for what you get, suggest looking around at local motels instead. Stayed two nights, one morning and one night there was no hot water for showers or washing up.

Newer and larger building compared to the Queenstown location we stayed at! Really comfy mattresses and the rooms had a mini fridge and plenty of hooks and hangers. The kitchen was very large and the hostel was very clean. Walls are a bit then but no issues with ear plugs!
