great central location. very well organized, well equipped and spacious common area/ kitchen with an attached balcony. Stayed only one night in a 4 bed female dorm. The room was small and therefore a little dark but there was good luggage storage for each person and in the pod itself there was a shelf with a light , USB port. etc. The facility was really clean and quiet at night. I arrived late but there was great instructions given re key pick up, rules of the facility etc. only met one staff member in the morning to drop off the key.

Location was great, it’s right across from the lakeshore walk and an easy stroll to the central business district. The reserved parking spot was very helpful and well worth the money, and my private room was well appointed and comfortable.

Service was excellent - responses to inquiries were always prompt, our room and the public facilities were always kept clean and staff were the nicest. The location is amazing and accessible. Also, initially we were declined of a lake view room but somehow we got one in the end so we were very happy with that.

These were the most comfortable hostel beds I've ever experienced. We felt safe and comfortable, the atmosphere was fun and active but everyone respected the quiet hours and we were able to get a good night's sleep. It's also right next to the InterCity bus stop so the location couldn't be better. We would stay again!

This is a great landing pad for someone entering Queenstown. It's right near the waterfront but it's quiet at night. Also you book a lot of excursions in the lobby. Very good value for money for this area. Everything else is more than twice the price for private room. Highly recommend.

From the moment you step through the doors, you're enveloped in a warm, welcoming atmosphere that instantly sets the tone for a memorable stay. Upon arrival, I was greeted by the friendly staff, who went above and beyond to ensure that my check-in was seamless. The reception area exudes a cozy charm, with its rustic decor and stunning views of the lake. The accommodations at Lakeside Backpackers are nothing short of exceptional. I opted for a shared room, and I was delighted to find it clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully decorated. The bed was plush and inviting, guaranteeing a restful night's sleep after a day of exploring Queenstown's myriad attractions. One of the highlights of my stay was undoubtedly the breathtaking views that greeted me each morning. Waking up to the sight of Lake Wakatipu shimmering in the sunlight was a true delight, and I often found myself lingering on the savoring the tranquility of the surroundings. In addition to its idyllic location, Lakeside Backpackers offers a range of amenities to enhance your stay. The communal areas are tastefully furnished, providing the perfect setting to unwind and socialize with fellow travelers.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.
