Wanaka Hostels

"Fantastic hostel. All rooms are en-suite and the kitchen is always clean. The dining area has a fantastic view of the lake and it feels more like a boutique hotel than a hostel. The staff are friendly too. Great place to stay and I'd stay there again." … "Great hostel - stayed here for almost a week early august and found it super. nice views from the hostel, fireplace to keep warm, pool table, table tennis. giant shared kitchen to cook with others if your room doesnt have one and the rooms have good heating to keep you toasty (and...  more »

"It seems that the Matterhorn South has cleaned up their staff issues. The current staff was wonderfully helpful and we arrived early and were given a place to store our luggage until they had our room ready. The facilities were great and they're right across the street from a WIFI location which is rare for New Zealand! We stayed two nights and I wish we could have stayed longer." … "Friendly, clean, and homey. - Under new management since July 2009. This hostel is very clean with the new managers making many improvements. New Spa...  more »

"Quite location - Stayed in a double room, which had two single beds. The only complaint would be that you have to go outside to get to the bathrooms, which would be freezing in winter." … "Stayed in cottage, double room has bunks, they could have left this as a double as they charge enough for it." … "This place is kind of small and a bit cramped. It's not the best of the YHAs but it's a decent base." … "So far so good - The YHA is a bit away from the town centre (if a small village like that can have something like this) and...  more »

"The Location Fern Tree Lodge is a small hostel near the centre of Wanaka (which itself is small!) and is one of about five hostels in Wanaka. It is part of the neighbouring Fern Motel complex and occupies the next site. The hostel is a collection of buildings, with the main house in front. All buildings are single story. This is not a party hostel and is for those who want a quiet place to sleep. As it is in three buildings, it also means that it does not have a hostel feel. Being small, it also does not have a lot of the facilities...  more »
