Independent, Queenstown Hotels

Staff are great, loved it - great weekend away, would recommend to anyone

Awesome. was staying in a 4 bed female with a bathroom. A bit noisy late at night from outside. Very cosy and warm and was comfortable and clean.

One of the best backpackers that I've stayed at

This was my first experience in a backpacker lodge and I thought the place was fine. There are multiple buildings and the one we stayed in had about 5 rooms and a common bathroom and kitchen. The bathroom was tidy, but pretty basic. I would recommend putting in a new shower head to save water! The ones in there were like a waterfall. The kitchen was okay, and the cleanliness kind of depends on who stays during the time you are there, it was a little messy when we were there. The beds were okay, but the room definitely had an old building odor, so we had to keep the windows open. The Hub, pizza/hang out spot is cool and reminded me of being back in college. Everything is pretty casual and there were a mix of folks while we were there ranging from teenagers to families, but more of the younger crowd. The location is decent, a small hill up from the main part of town, about 10 minutes, and a grocery store is a 5 min walk. The staff was very friendly and helped plan our outings. If you are okay with some partying (or looking to party) and can deal with some noise, this place is a great value for Queenstown.

I stayed on 2 seperate nights. 1 night in a shared form, 1 in a private room. Dorm Excellent touch with the privacy curtain and a big cupboard to lock valuables away. Also each bed has it's own plug socket which is rare Private room Very comfortable room, clean and welcome privacy. Bathroom is shared however was next door to the room. Kitchen and bathroom facilities are modern, spacious and clean. Overall a great stay. I have recommended to friends already

Great information on arrival and very clean room, serviced daily, even topped up milk. I was impressed. Would recommend to others and would stay their again.

We did not view or stay. I booked this by mistake because my search for "Accommodation Milford Sound" had Kinloch Lodge near the top. But it is no where near Milford Sound. So just a warning for others in case they make the same mistake. I did not find out about my mistake until the day of our stay. Kinloch has a very strict cancellation policy and charged me despite the mistake. Staff were apologetic and nice. I think they could make it very clear in their emails and web information that Kinloch is 5 hours drive from Milford Sound.
