Probably there wasn't many visitors during my stay, the owner upgraded me 4 beds reservation to a 2 beds reservation. One of the cleanest backpacker I have ever stayed. Kitchen and lounge are neat too. Plenty of carparks available. Mountain bike available for rental too if you need one.

The kitchen was clean and much better kept then other hostels we visited. The kitchen had all the things needed for cooking except for a few stove tops on the blink. Room was modern and very comfortable. Shower and bathroom super convenient and close. The tv didn’t seem to have channels, but we where only there for one night, not a big thing.

Very comfortable and clean accommodation, with an excellent communal kitchen, longe, TV room and ple”
I would highly rate this accommodation and it is excellent value for money- however, Fox Glacier as a destination appears rather neglected by the authorities compared with the Franz Joseph Glacier- seeing the Glacier here is problematic as only one path was open during my visit and the authorities were maintaining this using tarmac from a road leading up to the glacier on the track nearest the town. The best viewpoint for Fox Glacier is actually on the road which leads to Lake Mathieson.

Comfortable and easy”
We enjoyed our stay - helpful and friendly staff. Pleasant and tidy public areas. Room was small and basic, but great for the price and everything we needed. Great that linen and towels were provided. Cool facilities - hot tub, sauna and movie room.

Clean busy noisy ”
Pros - clean room, bathroom and toilets and everyone cleaned up after themselves in the kitchen. The staff who greeted us was very friendly and helpful. Cons - Noisy in the evening, can hear everything that’s going on. One of the ladies who was on duty when we were leaving was rude - walked out the door before us let it swing shut on us carrying all our bags and told us bluntly to leave the key on the side (no thanks or goodbye).

Good location. The room is a bit small but clean. The kitchen is big enough but the ventilation needs improvement because we can smell the cooking in my room. The staffs are all friendly and willing to help.

No Hot pool”
Overall is ok, value for money, there are restaurants nearby. However, the hot pool didn’t fix, there was a memo said the hot pool is not available for TODAY,but actually it was no longer available. I am disappointed.

Pretty standard. Stayed here to be close enough to walk to the glacier helicopter tours. It was fine. Quiet town. Glow worm hike recommend.

Don't like it :(”
First time trying out shared toilet facility, few toilets were clean but bedroom cannot be locked internally, feeling insecured. Bedroom was so small. Walking distance to eateries and mini supermarket, quite convenient. Perhaps getting one with private toilet may have a better and safer feeling.

Nice hostel in a quaint little village”
It was a very comfortable stay. Fox glacier village is a small village where everything can be covered within 10 min. Nonetheless, this hostel serves as a good base to explore nearby attractions such as lake Matheson and fox glacier terminal face. Would highly recommend this for its comfort and price.
