Hostels in Canterbury, New Zealand

The environment is good, everyone is quiet. One night, there was a little brother outside the sister, very exaggerated No for one night.

Excellent value for money. Its central location in Dunedin allows you to easily kick off your day. The complimentary breakfast offered in the morning is also a great perk.

The accommodation situated right in front of Lake Tekapo. Walking distance to lupins field, Church of the Good Shepherd, stargazing tours’ pickup points, grocery stores and restaurants. Short drive to Mt John summit & Tekapo Springs (both walkable from accommodation as well if you are up for some long walk :))

It was Easter 🐣 week so the shop was closed, so I called and they opened the door for me. The shop is a bar, so it may be crowded on normal days, but I think it's a good idea to check with the staff. Everyone is very friendly and kind, so you can enter the room with peace of mind. The private room is as shown in the photo, and it even has a refrigerator. It was kept clean and very comfortable. It was raining and the outside temperature dropped, but it didn't affect the room. The shared space is the kitchen, shower and toilet, but this shop has been there since the 1800s, so you can feel the history. However, the kitchen has been remade and is induction compatible. I have only ever used gas, but I was able to use it without any problems! I also decided on this hotel because I was planning to watch a rugby game. It is about a 15-minute walk away, and there are McDonalds and other places, and the street lights are basically on, so I think the security is not a problem. I highly recommend this hotel over other Doritomi, so please give it a try! Thank you for a wonderful time!

Really good hostel in the center of the city ! I was in a shared room of 4 beds. There were curtains wich is always appreciated. Room was clean. Beds are really comfortable. Quiet Bathroom is also perfect. Really good kitchen, well equipped.

This is a hotel that was converted from a historic prison. The staff are very nice and the guests are very friendly. It feels like a big family living together. It is not too far to walk to the city, so everything is very convenient.

The owner is lovely and welcoming. Thank you for a great stay.

Cost-effective, parking lot, convenient location in the village. Full self-service hotel.

Hostel vibe that has everything you need. The location was great as it was very easy to walk the seal colony and whale watching tour.  We did our laundry their too which was easy to use and the host was very helpful with that as well as when we had issue with checking in.  A few hobs didn’t work in the kitchen which make it a bit challenging to cook if there were other people.
