Great vibe and excellent location”
The staff can make you feel excited on why you are in Queenstown. The bed was good but there's not enough plugs in the room for charging our devices. But we still enjoyed our stay and had a great time here!

Good value for money ”
Location is good, room was spacious and clean, good kitchen facilities too. A bit noisy because of just on high street and they don't have any customer parking. Otherwise good place to stay.

Hey Chad! Thanks so much for your awesome feedback man. We really appreciate it and loved having you live with us whilst you were. If you're ever back in the area pop in to Loco for a beer :) All the best for the rest of your travels
Hostel is great but not the roommates”
We stayed for just one night, arrived at 10pm and left at 10am. The roommates who seem to live there longterm are so messy. I've moved some of the things so I can climb up top bunk but when they arrived at 2am, everything was back in disorder. The hostel facilities and cleanliness itself is okay but the hostel has to be stricter esp with longtermers.

Amazing staffs and ideal location”
Friendly staff, clean room, kitchen a bit messy sometimes but always got staff clean the kitchen every now and then. Wifi is slow during certain peak hours. Overall, Base Queenstown is better than Base Auckland, there is free breakfast, smaller kitchen but clean and tidy. Clean bed compare to Base Auckland too.

Exceptional”
Excellent location. Staff was very helpful. The only thing would be that the building seems relatively old and the escalator has a strong smell of detergent.

Hey XUELIAN Thank you for taking the time to leave a review, glad to see you enjoyed your stay here at Base QT! Safe travels, and if you're ever back in QT, make sure to visit! Base
Good for both short&long term”
I’v been living in the Base more than a month so far. Because I work for the gifts shop just across street, that’s super convenient for me and also good location for all the places you want to go with such a cheapest price in Queenstown! Free breakfast from 8-9am, and the kitchen will close for cleaning from 10pm that is the only things annoying but I can totally understand.

Good location”
The location is really good, near the lake ,supermarket and everything. staffs are friendly. But it's noisy at night on weekends cause there's a bar downstairs. Sometimes the kitchen is a little bit dirty, cause people leave the dishes in the sink instead of washing them right after they used it. And the most important, here got elevator to go up and down, which is very convenience for me.

Great to see you enjoyed your stay here at Base QT, especially nice to hear when our staff have been a part of that! :) We do understand that with the awesome drink deals at the bar, noise can be a factor, however, if you're ever back us, grab a free paid of earplugs from the 24hour reception if you're having a night off the town! :D We hope you enjoy the rest of your travels, wherever they take you!!

Great Location and super helpful staff”
The hostel is just at the center of Queenstown and very close to everything. Nice and comfy bed, but sometimes loud especially during the Winter Festival weekend. This is very good for young people who wants to party and who wants to meet other travelers. All the staff are approachable and very helpful. Gaston is be BEST!!! Overall, Highly recommended. Thank you Base i had a nice 9days stay. :)

If you are looking for a good time, partys, adrenaline and cool young people, this is your place! Just for relaxing and a good night sleep I would recommend to find something else.

Excellent”
Excellent location. Friendly and helpful staff. Facilities are dated and worn but does the job. Situated above a bar and next to a public grass area so expect some noise at night.

Very good”
I stayed here twice, on both times in 8 bed female dorm which was clean and had lockers though wasn’t very spacious. Bed was comfy. Room had an ensuite but shower wasn’t good. During the first stay it only had burning hot water and on second time water was freezing cold. Wifi works only in the ground floor but was quite fast. Perfect location. Kitchen was clean but didn’t have enough stovetops or pots at times. Staff in the receptions was really nice and helpful! Overall i had a good stay and would stay again (like i already did).

Hey Sanni, Thanks for taking the time to review, you've hit some really vital points for us here in a mega constructive way so its much appreciated! We are very close to a refurb of the kitchen which will mean a much better cooking area with more stove tops! I have passed the water issues back to our maintenance manager so he can investigate the thermostat to avoid these issues going forward! Great to hear you enjoyed our location, we must admit its sweet place to be! And also great to hear our staff where everything we'd expect! We definitely hope to see you here again! Base
