Best value in Auckland. Free hi-speed wifi, free DIY breakfast (bread, jam, butter, peanut butter, ham, coffee and tea), clean kitchen with good facilities, clean bathroom, friendly and helpful staff and plenty of leaflets at reception. Hop on Airbus (airport bus) and get down at stop no.1. Turn left right after you get down from the Airbus toward Langham Hotel.... More

Plus points with K Road City Travelers is the free wi-fi, free breakfast, clean bathrooms, free towel upon request and friendly and helpful staff. In terms of value, K Road City Travelers get five out of points. However, it did feel a little old, dark and pokey to me. It's not a bad location, but it was a bit noisy... More

Despite the negatives I'm about to mention we did quite enjoy our time at K road, it has a decent enough location at the top of Queen St and the free wifi goes along way to making up for everything else. Having said that, the walls are paper thin and the place was noisy all night. The kitchen was tiny,... More

On first appearances the hostel gives a bad impression as its a tiny grotty looking doorway with not much to tell you this is k road city travellers. Once you haul your luggage up the stairs though you'll see it's a nice little hostel. Pros: free breakfast consisting of bread, jam peanut butter and ham. Free tea an coffee all... More

A bit hard to find and it is a small doorway on the road. Location very good< on a decently busy road>, but ten Auckland is very big! Double room, clean bedding, toilets also clean, service very nice, small kitchen but again for an expensive city, good value for money. A bit far from the intercity bus exchange, (15$ cab... More

We arrived quite late but the guy on reception was friendly and helpful and gave us a tour before showing us to our room. We had a double room which was fairly big, had a desk, hanging rail, wall mounted TV, full length mirror and plenty of sockets. There was free wifi available. The bathrooms and kitchen were very clean... More

Stayed here for 3weeks in September, 2012 initially had single room to myself but soon realised everyone there was really nice and was in a 4 bed dorm room for rest of stay. Rooms clean, staff helpful and really nice, Charles especially! Free breakfast is great for saving money. Free WiFi and use of computers was brilliant. Would easily stay... More

Good value for price, comparing to other hostels in NZ. Variety of food for the breakfast you can use as much as you need, very nice atmoshpehe, clean bathroom and everything. There were some people living there - they work temporarily in Auckland so that I could have useful tips about NZ from them. Location is ok. I only did... More

My bed was super comfortable (which is great after a 30 hour journey), free breakfast (eggs, ham, and toast) was a great bonus. Free wifi was super convenient. Free linens and free towel, also great. I did not like the stairs up, and I wish it was a little more central in location, but it wasn't too far out of... More
