Friendly staff on arrival informative,  upgrade to a bigger room with private bathroom,  great views comfortable room hot pools nearby beach across the road the perfect spit for a day or two,  beautiful spot 

Awesome

Came here to stay for a couple of nights and do a few activities in Tekapo... first got given an upgrade so that was an extra cool bonus, so stayed in a nice little cabin that was quite nice and spacious for 2 people. It has a nice lovely spot with a view looking towards the lake. Lovely place to stay

Enjoyed the Stay

Lovely view, beautiful facilities. There are nice walks nearby and it is close enough to the town centre. The facilities were clean and modern but there were a few things missing e.g. there were no powerpoints in the dorm rooms. Some oil or salt and pepper in the kitchen would have been helpful too. Overall, a great stay! Thanks!

Very nice, but lacking some necessities

If you're just passing through or want to stay during the weekend, that's a good choice. Recommendable have a transport if you wanna go to the village of Mt John. Bikes are good option though. It's a walking distance to Tekapo Springs. 
Nice BBQ area.
Kitchen and lounge area are pretty clean and tidy. BUT, the 4 dorm rooms are too small!

Enjoy the lake and one of the most beautiful dark skies!

We stayed in a 4 person bunk room with our two teenage kids. It was very small to the point it was difficult for more than 1 person to stand up and do anything a one time! Being so small made it unbearably hot on the top bunk and the sheets were awful - 50% polyester and stiff as cardboard do that was uncomfortable too. The worst thing was the noise constant doors slamming which woke us up and made the bunks shake. On the plus side its a good location and was clean. The bathroom laundry area had a damp smell as you walked through. I think for the $ you pay you could probably find a better place to stay that has bigger rooms and is not so noisy. We would not stay here again. 

Good location but...

Stayed here for 2 nights, first night was a last minute booking, 2nd night was preplanned. Staff were wonderful and accommodating. Rooms (1x 2 bed dorm and 1 x bach cabin) were both clean, well equipped and comfortable. Views of the lake were great, shared kitchen facilities were clean and well equipped. Kiwi bach cabin had its own kitchenette and facilities. Wonderful stay all round, would definitely stay again!

Excellent all round stay

The doors were so loud everytime they closed it woke me up. Paper thin walls. A bunch of school kids were staying and they were so loud!! No respect for people surrounding. Didn’t sleep one bit. I hate this place!! Awful reception. So rude!!

Worst hostel

Good backpackers. Good sleep. Great service. Close to walk to shops. We enjoyed our stay there. Booked the day of stay and there was a vacancy which was great. Hand sanitiser was available but not required to be used.

Good backpackers

I arrived on the intercity bus to be greeted by Andrea. She was friendly and let me pop into the shop to grab a few bits before heading to the lodge. The lodge it’s self was so beautiful even the dorm rooms have a lake view. The rooms were very clean and had balcony doors. The kitchen has a great set up and there is even an oven. Buckets for clean/ dirty tea towels and rags. Really well organised. Bathrooms were always clean. Only think that could have made my stay better is a bigger free internet/unlimited. Also a fan in the room as it was hot in the day time. Thanks for looking after me :)

Incredible place with incredible staff

The room was clean though small as expected. It was a small wooden but with 2 charging points, tv, a small wicker drawer set, a radiator and a small table fan. It has a small window for ventilation. It was hot in the afternoons without the door open. Nights were fine with the door and window closed. They provide linen, blankets and towels. The shared washroom and toilets were nearby. They get cleaned later in the morning hence get a little dirty by 10 am.bthe toilets are shared by tents, 3 privates and 2 dorms so get a bit busy in morning. The kitchen is well equipped and has enough stoves and utensils even if there are multiple people. The car park is free. The WiFi is patchy and very slow. The hostel is near village center and faces the lake. laundry facility is available. It so has an outdoor barbeque kitchen.
