we stayed here one night and there were just 3 of us in a 6 bed room so think we were quite lucky. its a bit old but clean and with a big communal area. staff very friendly. only downside was that there was only one toilet in our part of the hostel which didn't seem enough. But otherwise it... More

We had a twin room at The Shack, the new part away from the hostel itself. It was all new, super clean, big kitchen, big living room with large tv. We paid $ 65 (55 for the room for 1 person plus 1 person extra) and expected something really really small, and we were pleasantly surprised. Close to everything (there... More

We were 3 friends and booked a 4bed dorm. Bicheno being a small town, it was easy to find the hostel. It is walking distance from the main market with many food options available (do try the takeaway place!!). We stayed in the new building down the road from the main backpackers building. I have to say it was like... More

Great layout to the dorm rooms, with loads of storage space and curtained-off bunks, making it feel spacious. Good kitchen/lounge area, although the staff seemed to have the radio on all the time, even when people were watching TV, so it could be a little noisy. Some outside space to relax in too. Good stop-off point if you're travelling up... More

Very clean, lovely kitchen/dining area and plenty of space. Great location, right by the beach, shops and places to eat. Had... More

I stayed here for a longer time and it was amazing. The beds are so comfy and the curtains in the dormitory building give you a bit more privacy. The kitchen has everything you need for cooking. Because there is a big table where everybody is sitting you can get in chat with other travelers very easy. Everything is very... More

We stayed in the new block of rooms, down the road from the main backpackers building. Rooms were modern, clean and huge bathroom facilities. The kitchen and living rooms were also large and enough space to move around for everyone! You made us feel welcome and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Bicheno (even if it did rain a lot)

I liked the hostel - the room are a bit small, but lovely and clean. I stayed in the main building, in a 4 bed dorm with ensuite. Nice staff. Not far from the restaurant, bar ad supermarket of the town.
