The staff at this place were amazing! They went above and beyond to make sure I had a great stay. I received a phone call and an email from reception, showing that they truly cared about my experience. The location was also convenient, with a short walk or a nearby bus for getting around. Plus, the value for money was outstanding - I got a tiny single room at a dorm price!
The walls were quite thin, making it a bit noisy at times. And while most of the stay was pleasant, there were a couple of individuals who smoked weed in the backyard behind the kitchen, which was a bit bothersome.

We had a great experience staying at Kiwi House. The friendly staff and convenient location made our stay enjoyable. Our private room was well-equipped with a desk space, perfect for writing and drawing. The property itself felt secure, and we were able to easily walk to the CBD and a nearby supermarket. The atmosphere at Kiwi House was cool and welcoming, ideal for long-term job seekers. The kitchen had everything we needed, and the staff were always helpful. We would definitely recommend Kiwi House for a comfortable and convenient stay.
Everything was great! 😊

The location is convenient for exploring the city on foot. the spacious kitchen allows for multiple people to cook at the same time. Comfortable beds, friendly long-term guests, hairdryer in bathroom, and TV in dining area and separate TV room.
Felt like a home away from home, no reason to complain.

Rooms are spacious with a nice view of the garden from the window. There's enough space for your belongings with multiple power outlets and a desk. the hostel also provides free towels, which is a plus. the location is good, not too far from the city center with a 10-minute walk or a bus stop nearby. It's quiet and peaceful, perfect for those who prefer a more relaxed atmosphere.
The lounge room could be improved with more seating options. It would also be great if there were some available computers to use.

We recently stayed at a hostel in Christchurch called Kiwi House, and we had a great experience. The staff, especially Erika, were incredibly friendly and helpful. They made us feel welcome and gave us a tour of the place when we arrived late at night. The bed in our basic room was clean and comfortable, with a warm weighted blanket. The hostel was also very clean, with friendly staff and comfortable beds. it was a convenient and budget-friendly option for our short stay.
Cannot find any fault 👍

Great value for money with affordable rates. Convenient location within walking distance of the city center. Friendly and helpful staff who provided assistance whenever needed.
Inconvenient location with limited access to nearby supermarkets and attractions. Insufficient fridge space due to the hostel being frequented by long-term guests.

Convenient location near city and shops with secure parking. Friendly staff who provided detailed instructions for late check-in. Clean room and bathroom. Individual lockers in the kitchen and cozy garden area for socializing. Early check-out was hassle-free. 👍

I stayed at Kiwi House for a couple of nights and it was a great experience. The staff were friendly and even brought me extra blankets when I needed them. The location was close to town and the hostel was secure. It was also conveniently located on a bus route. The private room I stayed in was clean and relatively comfortable. The beds were incredibly comfortable with their own lamps and thick blankets. The kitchen was well-equipped and I loved having my own assigned locker for food storage. The bathrooms were always clean and the showers had nice hot water. a great stay!
100% recommend this hotel.

Staff were friendly, helpful, and accommodating. Kitchen well stocked with pots, pans, plates. Off-street parking available. Unheard of per-night price - great value for money. Quiet location with enough street parking.

The staff were friendly and helpful, and the price was really affordable. Despite the cold weather, the rooms were kept warm and cozy without needing to use the heater. I was impressed by the fire safety features throughout the hostel, which made me feel safe and secure. Additionally, the well-equipped kitchen, fast wifi, and convenient location within walking distance to town were all major perks. a clean and comfortable stay with great value for money.
I do recommend this hotel.

I stayed at Kiwi House and got great value for my money. The location was convenient, just a 20-minute walk to the city center.
The morning meal could use some improvement, maybe more options or a better variety.

Convenient location, spacious kitchen, and individual lockers for each room. Hassle-free check-in with helpful instructions. Clean and well-maintained bathrooms, rarely had to wait. a pleasant experience with friendly long-term guests. Extra amenities like hairdryers and TVs in common areas.
