We enjoyed our stay for 2 nights in Queenstown. The location was close to the Queenstown gardens and to many nice restaurants and shopping. We also rented bikes from the hostel and biked all around the Frankton Arm. The hot tub and outdoor seating were a bonus as well!

Hey Reiko, we're sorry to hear you only found your stay a 1/5 experience. We definitely do have an open concept layout that takes advantage of the gorgeous outside space surrounding us. The bathrooms are a short walk outside from the rooms but they most of the walkways are completely covered. We hope you choose to stay with us again in the future and can improve your experience.

Private room was good size and comfortable, but there was nowhere to hang a towel. Would’ve been good to have a socket by the bed and a lamp in the room. Hostel itself has nice facilities - good kitchen for cooking, big communal lounge area which always has someone in it, outdoor tables, clean bathrooms and showers. Staff were friendly and helpful. Location is close to town but a short walk up a hill. There were a lot of long term stays which did make the social vibe a bit different and maybe not so geared towards solo travellers just passing through for a few days, although everyone I spoke to was really nice.

Loud with issues - Very Nice staff
Super nice staff in a convenient area. Unfortunately noise was a frequent issue- be it door slamming, drinking, people wrestling at night, blasting music etc. Broken hot tub not fixed the week I was there, kitchen burners not working well, Wi-Fi unable to keep up with the demand on it. The staff are quite helpful and really pleasant- the accommodation is lacking in many areas unfortunately so I cannot recommend it overall.

Thank you for your review! We really appreciate you have taken the time to write this! Regarding your comments; sorry we could not make it with the Hot Pool, we had to wait for the specialist to come over, as he is not from here, it took more time than we expected. We are working on the WiFi situation too, we had an upgrade and we got new internet devices just a few days ago.We are taking all your comments to keep improving our product.Hoping you can come back soon to keep exploring and enjoying Queenstown.

Outside hot tub was a bonus. It was cheap in price but understandably...rooms are tiny, advertised free parking but this refers to "find your own on the street", advertised as "family room" but no toilet or bathroom as picture lead me to believe and bunks had no safety rails for the kids, lounge room full of foreigners lying over furniture talking innappropriately so not child friendly, stated no drinking after 830pm but everyone was. Friendly and helpful staff and cheap...get what you pay i guess

Thank you for your review! We really appreciate you have taken the time to write this! We are glad you enjoyed the hot tub. We are really sorry you did not find the room convenient for children, but we want to let you know that was room was originally a normal dorm, as it is now, but we had to reform that into a Family Room due COVID. About the parking, yes you are right, our carpark is for campervan, but if we have availability we will always give you the chance to park there otherwise you have to do it on the street.Thank you for your feedback, we take all your comments to improve our services and facilities.

Hi, Thank you for staying with us at Black Sheep Backpackers! Our location is very handy only a 2 minute walk from the center of town surrounded by free parking. We pride ourselves on having friendly and helpful staff. Glad to hear you enjoyed our amenities, sad you didn't get to use the Hot Pool its open from 9am to 9pm daily. Hopefully you got to use some of our other great facilities Free Bike Hire, Free Wifi, Lounge with games and Netflix, full kitchen, laundry facilities, BBQ Deck or Travel Desk. We look forward to seeing you next time you're in Queenstown.

Creaking floor boards all around the room, slamming doors, dorm rooms around double rooms and lots of teenagers around didn't help our stay at this property. I wouldn't recommend it to people needing a quiet family/couple stay at this place.

Hi, thank you for taking the time to leave us at review. Queenstown over New Years (between 28th and 6th Jan) is known to attract lots of teenagers. To ensure Black Sheep Backpackers stays comfortable for all guests we do have a drinking ban at the hostel and also our usually no noise policy between 9pm and 8am is enforced to keep noise down. We are sorry to hear you wont recommend us to a family/couple, we have lots of families and couple stay with us. Thank you.

Meh...
The advertised shower only in the room is false. They should have clearly indicated that they only have shared a Shower. Also, this is the first backpacker or motel i went to that required the guest to return the sheets and pillow cases at thereception upon checkout. The room was not soundproof at all - this is another false advert. But it was clean though. We also did not get any toiletries - it was supposed to be provided as per advertised.

Thank you for your review! First, we are sorry if it was a misunderstanding, but all our bathrooms are shared and our private rooms have not private bathrooms. About the toiletries, we do not provide this, we are a hostel and hostels do not provide toiletries. Also, as we are hostel, It is common to ask to guests to take all the sheets and pillow cases at the front or just leave them at the top of your bed. Sorry if our Hostel did not reach your expectations. We hope you have had a great time on Queenstown.

I was very impressed with the lodge. I was dubious staying in a backpackers (I am nearly 60) but was impressed from the moment walking in. The place is clean, comfortable, has parking, spa pool, great kitchen and laundry facilities. My bed was very comfy, nice sheets and warm as toast when those radiators came on. Great for wet ski gear. The showers were powerful and hot, the ablution area was spotlessly clean. Well done Black Sheep, I will certainly book here again

Amazing stay
This is a great place to stay while visiting Queenstown, this was my first solo trip and obviously I’ve heard some weird stuff about hostels, I was hoping to stay at some weird crazy place but it was actually more than what I expected! Cool installations, nice and respectful people while I stayed there, the only thing I would’ve loved is the staff promoting more group parties, it was kinda dead, not really a hostel to make friends I would say, it’s close to everything so car is not needed unless you want to do activities that require driving. Overall a great experience.
