Nomads is by far the best hostel I have stayed at. There is always plenty of staff available, and they are very friendly. Can't say one bad thing about the facilities. So clean, spacious, comfortable. I stayed in a 4 bed female dorm and it was perfect. Didn't find the place too loud or too "party central." If you're not... More

This large hostel right down town is where the party is. They have a bar crawl on Monday nights so that should give you some idea. Even if you aren't up for the party, I wasn't, they have good laundry facilities, lounges and internet. I got a private and thought it was worth every penny. There was a balcony, a... More

The hostel itself is nice, clean, spacious (maybe a bit too big and busy for my liking) and has good facilities including a cinema room and free food in the evenings. However, it was incredibly busy even in the off season, and my room was right next to a bar/club that played loud music until 5am which made sleep nigh... More

Backpackers want somewhere with a good social scene, clean rooms and who can say no to the free food they offer on a daily basis?! Located centrally in the picturesque town of Queenstown, this hostel is a backpacker's dream with an opportunity to drink and socialize with like minded backpackers in the common area until 9pm each night. Staff are... More

Stayed here for 5 nights in April 2012 and had a great time. This is everything that you need in a hostel, the rooms are clean, the kitchen is efficient and there are plenty of places to meet other people. The location is excellent with the main bars, restaurants and shops all on your doorstep. Finally, the staff were all... More

Spent a week here in an 8-bed dorm in early April. Flashy place, fairly comfortable beds, fairly clean facilities, fantastic location. Try to get a room with a balcony and/or windows as some rooms don't have windows that open and it can get hot! If you're traveling with friends and in Queenstown for a good time then this is a...

Really good location,nice,new hostel that is always kept really clean! I would say that it's a bit expensive $35 a night for a 6bed dorm with no window!! The facilities are really good and some staff were very friendly!

The location of Nomads Queenstown is amazing. It's right near the lake and in the heart of Queenstown, convenient to any activity there. The staff was incredibly helpful and recommended a few things to do while in Queenstown. I stayed in a single ensuite on the 3rd floor. The bathrooms were tiny and poorly designed. The sink is very small,... More

Stayed here for about a week, rooms are clean and well sized, some have balconies. If you stay here I suggest paying that little bit extra and staying on the 3rd floor where the rooms are twins/doubles; fridge, wardrobe, desk, balcony, private bathroom, T and coffee!!!! Loved it. Dont make the mistake of going to Base. Nomads is the better... More
