Stayed here for 2 nights. Slightly out of town, but only 5 minute walk in. Double room w/o bathroom for 67 dollars then 62 for the 2nd night. Cindy, the manager, was very friendly. Booked skydiving and Nevis bungy through her. If you book through her (same price as direct) you get free wifi. Room was comfortable and clean, French... More

Great location, & our triple room(double & 1 single) was very clean & comfy! Short walk to town away from the hustle & bustle of Queenstown. Staff not all that friendly. Kitchen busy! Remember to name & date all your food as they like throwing unmarked food out! We had our food unmarked & found it either in the bin... More

We stayed for 4 nights at Butterfli Lodge. Very commercial orientated running hostel quite a walk to the heart of Queenstown, but with a nice view on the lake. Unfriendly staff, for the Internet they made me paying 5 NZ $ for 100 MB using my own Notebook. Rooms are simple, but very clean. Don´t get those rooms on the... More

We stayed in a double room in the Butterfli overlooking the lake in Queenstown, its a really friendly down to earth place - its quiet and the views over the lake are stunning. Great place to be based for a stay in the are and good value.

Honestly, I was quite worried before checking in cause their Website was not so flashy (don't judge a lodge by its website!). However once we found & checked-in... More

a friend and i spent 4 nights in queenstown, the longest of any city on a 3 week tour, and loved the butterfli lodge. the ONLY minor negative is that it is about an 8 minute walk into town down a big hill and back up it (which was a little tiring late at night!). so if you want a... More

With several private double rooms (shared bath/shower) and a kitchen/dining area, this hostel was perfect. Our downstairs double room had a closet, lakeview patio, patio chairs. A deck runs the length of the house, with picnic tables and benches. A short walk downhill into busy Queenstown, this was a restful place we would recommend. Internet available for a fee. Helpful...

Our double room in Butterfli Lodge is by far the coziest amongst other accomodations we had, spacious, spotless clean,good access to bathroom (which btw we love because the toilet is in the same room as the shower) and direct access to parking lot. Kitchen is big enough and the best thing is you can have your meal wuth the most... More

I stayed at Butterfli lodge just by chance because I like the name and I found the best hostel I stayed in whilst in New Zealand. The staff are so lovely and welcoming and the type of guests they seem to get too are very easy going & friendly. The views from the decking outside are stunning - I still... More
