Stayed here for a few months while in Queenstown and it's definitely the best hostel I've been in. Really clean bathrooms, kitchens and rooms. Awesome staff, free WiFi and spa pool. Great hostel for socialising and meeting other travellers. Also the perfect distance of 5 minutes walk between town and the supermarket. Will definitely be going back!

This is an amazing hostel. Great staff and a good family atmosphere. The long term guest are really friendly and fun to party with. They also know where all the good spots are in town. This is one of the cleanest hostels I have stayed in during my 5 months of travel.

Absolutely fabulous! Definitely the cleanest hotel I've ever been to, with the most helpful, friendly staff.

Free lockers, towels, wifi, kitchen with coffee and tea, tourist... More

Perhaps I was unlucky and I was just there at the wrong time, but this hostel was the least friendly of all the places I stayed in NZ. It seemed to be occupied almost exclusively by long termers with no money, no imagination and no desire to meet new people. Despite there being so much going on in Queenstown, there... More

After traveling throughout the whole of New Zealand, I have stayed in a lot of hostels but The Flaming Kiwi is by far one of the most personal, clean and most importantly friendly hostels on my list!

We stayed here in a 6 bed dorm for just 1 night. The chap on reception was very friendly and helpful. The building itself is a bit old, but the rooms and bathrooms are clean and do the job, also the 3 kitchens are well equipped. The only thing is that it is a little further away from the action...

Had a great time in this small but cozy hostel. The location is great, close to the center but also close to the cheapest supermarket in town. Great service, they're always willing to help you. The free coffee/tea, unlimited internet/computer use, spa and free bike hire are very good for the price. The hostel is very clean, though, as already... More
