Dunedin Albergues

"… el perro del albergue. Dunedin es el alter-ego de Edimburgh. La ciudad y la Universidad se mezclan con cafeterías, pubs y una única arquitectura. Visite el único castillo de Nueva Zelanda, viaje en el ferrocarril de Taieri Gorge, el tour por la fábrica de chocolate o Speight’s Brewery. La vida salvaje alrededor del puerto ofrece albatros, focas, leones marinos y pingüinos de ojos amarillos. La cabeza de Taiaroa es el único lugar del mundo donde los albatros hacen sus nidos. YHA New Zealand es una organización sin ánimo de lucro....  more »

"I love this place. I lived at Manor House for about two months. It was cozy and friendly, and a great place to chill out and make friends." … "For being so close to the city this hostel was very quiet and chilled out. The back garden and converted garage are cool to chill out in. Birds love the trees." … "The cat was the only nice thing about this place. I was cold and the staff were so full of themselves. It was annoying." … "A bit rundown - The hostel seemed quite old and a long way out of town and all the sights. The room...  more »

"Really great place to stay - Really loved staying here. Its a nice, relaxed, spacious big old refurbished building with loads of character. At 20 a night its the best value to be found in Dunedin. Close and accessible to town centre (5minute walk) and with excellent facilities. Good showers, roomy and cosy lounge and kitchen. But the best thing here was the people I met, made some cool friends here in this wicked hostel." … "A little disappointed. - We found Penny's quite untidy ("dead" washing machines in laundry) and a bit grotty....  more »

"This hostel is the best i've stayed in NZ. It's absolutely clean, the kitchen is big, clean -- perfect. It's not noisy and the double room is really nice. The shared bathroom is clean and big. The hostel is also really safe and well located. They have only one problem. If you are driving, they don't have park, and if you want to park in the public park beside the hostel, you must pay for that. This problem, anyways, is almost nothing close to the high quality of this hostel." … "Could be so much better! - We would love to rate this...  more »

"Our stay in December 2004 was so lovely that we went back to Dunedin to stay here again. The rooms were spacious and clean, and the staff were simply lovely. I would definitely recommend this Kiwi's Nest." … "We stayed in Kiwi's Nest for a night last weekend (Feb. 2005). It was beautiful, clean and peaceful. The rooms were spacious and well kept. This place would be a heaven for those who want to be close to the city, yet want to enjoy some quiet nights. Thank you very much for the excellent accommodation, staff...and keep it up."...  more »

"Fantastic!!!" … "We stayed in a double room, the room was very spacious and had a high ceiling, it was also very clean. The owners of the place are very friendly and the fact that they do your laundry and fold it for you for only $5 is just awesome, saves a lot of time! We were also provided with free towels in our room, nice to keep one's towels clean. The kitchen is quite big and has everything you might need and the dining room is just off a long table, very easy to strike up a conversation with other housemates that way. The free...  more »

"This backpackers lodge is really cozy, and a great place to stay. The rooms are clean and warm, and the atmosphere at this place is incredibly friendly and laid-back. If I ever go back to Dunedin, I would definitely consider returning to this place." … "This hostel could be absolutely fantastic; it has a really big but cosy communal area. But I found something about it meant it wasn't very social. Not sure what but everyone always seemed to just be reading quietly instead of chatting." … "The Adventurer Backpacker is located in an...  more »

"Great, clean, nice, cheap. What else do you need?" … "The best backpackers that I visited in New Zealand — it just felt like home!!" … "Really nice peaceful hostel with comfortable rooms. Great location too. My only quibble -- there could be more toilets! But besides that it was a really good place to stay." … "Great hostel, shame about the change of owner. if you're looking for a nice bed and comfy surroundings it's fine. but if you're looking for kiwi hospitality go elsewhere. I have been coming to NZ for four years on and...  more »

"Queen's Gardens Backpackers (formerly Penguin Palace) is a convenient place to stay in the centre of Dunedin, as it is just five minutes' walk from the Octagon (no steep hills to climb) and is handy to Intercity and local buses. It also has twenty-four-hour check-in -- although if you are arriving late at night or in the "wee small hours" you will need to go to the Leviathan Hotel two minutes' walk away to pay your money and pick up your keys. The rooms, ranging from double to dorm, come not only with bedding but also a TV. The hostel...  more »

"Discover Dunedin's top rated hostel; history & charm opposite St Josephs Cathedral, 500m to the city centre & 45 min to Peninsula & wildlife. Relax on a bush surrounded sun deck, play a tune on the piano or WiFi the day away. Then cook up a storm in new kitchens, marvel at stylish bathrooms or enjoy views from spacious bedrooms. Common complaint: beds too comfy (no bunks). Park on Bishops Road for free. Kiwi/Swiss hosts Gilbert, Maja & dogs welcome you!" … "… famous Speight's Brewery. From there, it is about a 5 minute walk into...  more »
