This hostel couldn’t be more aptly named – nestled between the Wakatipu lakefront and Shotover St it’s right in the rapidly beating heart of this famous little resort town of Queenstown. Everything is on your doorstep – cafes, bars, restaurants and the waterfront with all its activities.

Previously part of the ‘Old Mountaineer Hotel’, one of the first hotels in Queenstown all the accommodation at the YHA Queenstown Central hostel now includes ensuites and TVs (with free movies), free tea and coffee in private rooms and some rooms even have their own private courtyard or balcony overlooking the lake. Backpackers love that all the multi-share rooms are nice and small (5-share maximum) and all with private ensuites. The views from the comfortable upstairs lounge make for a most picturesque chill-out zone.

The staff are super-friendly and clued up about getting you the best possible deals on activities in Queenstown, which they’re happy to book for free on your behalf.

Not sure what to say? Here's some ideas to get you started... helpful/friendly staff, clean and tidy, comfortable, location, cool features/facilities, lumpy bed?, value for money, would you stay again?

    Fantastic affordable accommodation in a great, GREAT location. My husband and I don't normally stay at backpackers anymore, now that we are in our 30's but our friends were getting married in Queenstown and organised the accommodation. I must say I was impressed by YHA Queenstown Central. Ok the rooms were very dated but who really cares when you haven't paid much and are in a great central location. Also the staff at front desk were AMAZING! Really friendly and well clued up on all the best things to do in Queenstown and do the bookings for us. I noticed there was a variety of age groups there and families (not just the early 20's that you'd expect), so obviously more than a few people know about this super affordable Queenstown accommodation. Highly recommend!
