i stayed there with my partner and we were planning to stay for a month or 2 but the owner wasn't nice to us at all. the duvet was too heavy, no couches to chill, kitchen was clean but there were only small tables and few chairs to eat. the facility was set up pretty bad and hard to find... More

The single rooms are a good value and facilities are nice compared to other options in Christchurch, but the management can be frustrating to deal with. The hostel is purpose built and clean. It's Japanese owned and run so the rooms will be a little cramped and the mattresses stiff, but there are reading lights on each bunk and a... More

We stayed in the Kiwi House for one night, that was more than enough. It is clearly a hostel for Asian students to stay long term. The walls are paper thin, so much so that you can clearly hear someone having a telephone conversation in the room next door. We appeared to take one of the last rooms for the... More

　友人とクライストチャーチ旅行の際利用しました。友人と同部屋を希望しましたが、ほぼ満室で別々の部屋になるとの説明でした。しかし友人の泊まった６人部屋に空きベット１つ、私の泊まった４人部屋に空きベッド２つありました。旅をだいなしにされた気分でした。オーナーの女性の態度も愛想もなく悪いと感じました。自慢げに廊下の壁には地球の暮らし方の記事貼ってありましたが、広告主だから掲載されただけでたいしたサービスもない最低バックパカーでした。キッチンは長期滞在の日本人のたまり場のようで占領しており非常に居心地悪かったです。２度と利用しません。 More

工事中で雨漏りはする、キッチンが狭い、騒音がひどい、シャワーの湯が出ない、マネージャーが愛想悪い、盗難事件が頻繁に起こる等、最悪のバックパッカーでした。 エクスチェンジワーカー同士のイジメがあったようで、フロントの奥で泣いて抗議する男性の声を聞きました。 さらに長期で滞在している日本人の年配の方の悪口を本人がいないところで話したり、狭いキッチンの中で朝から晩まで話をして他の方の妨害をしている日本人の若者のグループなど客のマナーも最悪で、すぐに引っ越しました。 More

I stayed at Kiwi House last year while looking for a flat (I did the working holiday thing) and ended up staying for almost 4 months. They have cheap weekly rates for both dorms and privates. The owners and staff are incredibly nice. Made some really good friends and miss it quite a bit. It's a tad far from town... More

This is a very nice hostel with excellent staff, owners and very clean. It is easy to make new friends here, especailly if you stay a while. Great location close to town buyt quiet and secure as well. More

This Japanese-run hostel is the best value hostel in Christchurch, and I've been to a few. It is frequented by mostly Asian travellers and holders of working holiday visas, and offers both nightly, weekly and monthly stays/rates. Location: It is not in the four avenues area of Christchurch, but not far from it, meaning that you can easily walk into... More

Staff were very helpful and friendly, kitchens are well equiped. A bit of a walk from the city centre but its so cheap only $14 per night. Not a big party hostel, which I liked !! More
