Stewart Island Backpackers Hostel is AWESOME. The owners are wonderful. When our son failed to see a Kiwi on the only night we had booked, the owners found a way around "no vacancy" in their rooms the second night by finding us a large family tent, sleeping bags, and pads, which we pitched in the very field where Kiwis roam. That night, Aaron insisted on driving us on an excursion to find the elusive Kiwi - at no charge - which ended up becoming a two hour hunt in his Ford Explorer. He wouldn't even accept my offer of gas money. My son saw two Kiwis and for the remainder of that night another ended up roaming around our borrowed tent, singing. The facilities are good and clean, with all you need to cook, clean, etc. The location on the edge of Oban, a block from the beach, is perfect. Great spot owned by great folks.

Very friendly place, only a few minutes wak from the ferry terminal. Our room was quiet and comfortable. The lounge/kitchen area has comfy sofas and various forms of entertainment from a snooker table to board games and jigsaw puzzles if you want to hang outwith fellow travellers

The facilities exceeded my expectations. So clean and well maintained. The kitchen had everything you could possible want. No need to pay for expensive accommodation. Only a 2 minute walk to ‘town’. Staff friendly and helpful. Excellent value for money.

We spent 3 nights at Stewart Island Backpackers. One before our Rakiura tramp and two after. The staff were excellent. Really friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. All the facilities were well catered, clean and tidy. We were able to leave our bags and any un-required items in secure storage while we ere tramping, at no charge. But the best bit of the stay was having a resident kiwi that many of us saw after dark. A great stay, with lots of other like minded holiday makers from all walks of life. Such a magical experience. Definitely highly recommended. Mark, Phil, Dylan and Matilda. Nelson, NZ.

We needed a place to sleep before setting out to complete the Rakiura Great Walk, and were very pleased with this find. Our room was very clean and the bed was comfortable. The kitchen was well set up, and there was plenty of room to eat and relax. The bathrooms were immaculate. The team were all very friendly and welcoming. Oban is not a large village but the backpackers is very handily situated to all arrival points and other facilities (no hill walking involved).

Having never stayed at a backpackers place before, I was pleasantly surprised with this option (it was the last place in Oban to have vacancies). I had a room to myself, although had to share toilets and showers with the other guests, but these were both clean and more than acceptable. The little room had a comfortable bed and good linen, and caters for the mobile phone generation with two USB points. I didn’t hear any late night noises. I didn’t use the communal kitchen and lounge, but both looked ok and had cooking and refrigeration facilities.

Well appointed backpackers in a central location. Great kitchen facilities if you want to save by cooking ( no oven). While leaving to go find kiwi in nearby Traill Park, found a kiwi poking around on the front lawn - more luck than good planning. Stayed before and after doing a Great Walk so appreciated being able to leave a bag of clothes to change into after a few days of mud.

The staff were incredibly warm and helpful. We had booked during school camp season, thus had to tent but we were given everything we needed to make our stay easy. On our return from the 3day great walk the staff had made sure that the school kids knew to be quiet and give us room to recover. We were offered space to dry out our gear. Even store our stuff after check out time until the boat came on the day we left. I will be making a return in the near future.
我在这里住了一晚。单人间有点小，但这里是新西兰最偏远的地方之一，所以也只能这样了。工作人员非常棒，浴室很干净，厨房和客厅也很宽敞。甚至还有桌上足球。价格实惠。
