The 6 Best Hostels in Queenstown (Updated 2025)

"Located just off Camp Street, I found Adventure Queenstown Hostel extremely social and lively — they run a different event every night (quiz and boardgame nights, scavenger hunts, pub crawls, potluck dinners), which makes it perfect for meeting other travelers but not ideal if you want a quiet stay. The staff can book activities, they offer free GoPro and bicycle rentals, and can even rent skis and snowboards in winter. The wooden bunks are spacious with thick mattresses, privacy curtains, and lockers under the beds so you can sleep decently and keep your stuff safe." - Matthew Kepnes
