SingaporeVery nice cosy hostel! They really went above and beyond with what they provided, including a massage chair (with a view!!) And some cereal/biscuits/spread for breakfast. Rooms were really nice and comfortable with a privacy curtain, usb charging and personal lamp.

DenmarkThe Host Viviane is the best host ever! Great location in the middle of the city. In my opinion one of the most beautiful cities on the South Island. Classical buildings from the Victorian era. Also possible to see dolphins at the harbor area in the evening.

Looking for a hostel?
Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

- Avg. price/night: US$82.87Scored out of 10, guest rating 8.9Fabulous - What previous guests thought, 869 reviewsSo comfy, beautifully decorated, clean and warm. One of the best hostels I have stayed in. They provide a towel, and free cereal and spreads (jam, marmite, etc.) and there were so many games, books, a TV and a massage chair. Granted, it is very quiet, so you won't be encountering too many people. But I think that can be nice.Guest review byHollySolo traveller

Right by Harbour Street, a charming area with Victorian inspired buildings. Gave the vibe of being transported to another timeline.Guest review byNatalieYoung couple

- Avg. price/night: US$82.87Scored out of 10, guest rating 8.9Fabulous - What previous guests thought, 869 reviewsAmazing hostel - doesn't feel like one at all feels more like shared accommodation or a B&B. The 6 bed mixed dorm was spacious and clean. Sturdy bunk bed with each having their own light and usb charging point. The toilets and showers were clean. Free street parking right outside the accommodation. Free breakfast stuff, alongside tea, coffee etc as well as fruit juices. The view from the kitchen/living areas were beautiful. The location is perfect for Oamaru. I stayed for 2 nights and had the mixed dorm to myself the first night!Guest review byRubySolo traveller

My room was very cozy and comfy, the kitchen and the living room were so nice and bright with everything you need to cook and to relax. Very nice view. So far one of the best hostel I've been to since I'm in NZ last year. Sadly I only stayed one night.Guest review byAliceSolo traveller
