LyLo Queenstown

Really great location, walking distance to the city centre. Staff were super lovely and helpful.

Excellent central location with easy access to the mountain shuttle buses. Friendly, welcoming and accommodating staff. Pods feel private and the room feels secure with very generously-sized personal lockers. While I often prefer private rooms, I honestly loved the balance between privacy and social dorm and did not feel the need to upgrade to a private room. Great upstairs commons area with an open, social atmosphere, pool table and plenty of games. Luggage storage area has a dedicated ski, board, boot and pole rack. Well-equipped kitchens. Very well-maintained communal bathrooms and showers. Has a co-op upstairs where you can leave anything you can’t bring home with you for other guests to take and therefore can find useful things like hats, gloves and shoes if you need something in a pinch and get lucky. Power sockets in the pods equiped with usb as well as a mirror and a storage basket on the wall were a very welcome touch! Guests were quiet and respectful in the rooms, but the culture at LyLo was very social, outgoing and friendly. The staff at the LyLo are very friendly and welcoming, and are always happy to help you with what you need, and advise you on what’s on and what cool things to do in Queenstown/Tāhuna. The activities board is a great resource for activities and socialising, as is the notice and classifieds board in the lobby. Whether in New Zealand/Aotearoa for a while or a short break, it’s a great place to start your journey. Honestly the best experience I’ve had in a hostel so far, and I really look forward to coming back soon!

As someone who's also working in hospitality industry specifically in front office, I was really satisfied during my stay with you guys. Location was perfect. It's near to all the pick up location of my booked tours and it's just 4-5 minutes walk from the bus stop coming from and going to the Airport. The moment I stepped my foot on your property, I was greeted by the most amazing staff who helped me to check in. Tho, I forgot to ask for his name. The process for check in went smoothly and they took note of my request of Early Check In and informed me about all the things that I needed to know. (eg. 24/7 reception, shared kitchen opening and closing time, etc.) I booked the queen room without a window 'cause I really prefer to have a quiet room and I was lucky enough to have a room at the corner on Level 3. The room was small but it was perfect for me and it got everything that I need during my stay. I sheets are clean and the room smells nice as well. The television worked perfectly fine and I was able to screencast. They have a small heater in the room which was fine for me and kept me warm. All in all, the most amazing part of my stay was the staffs of the hotel. They were able to answer all my queries which shows that they're knowledgeable enough for the job. Thank you for your service. I'll see you again on my next visit in Queenstown! 🏔️🤍

Perfect central location; very quiet private ensuite room despite being in a busy hostel; breakfast voucher can be used on any day (not just day of checkout) in a cafe a few minutes walk from the hostel, where you can get a good, warm bagel with lots of choices of yummy fillings, plus a hot drink; 24 hour reception.

I was in an all female room of 8 pods. I liked how we each had a secure locker under our pods that easily fit a medium suitcase, carry-on bag and more, and it had a programmable 4 digit pin to lock. There was a decent amount of floor space between the pods to be able to open suitcases and get what you need. The pods were comfortable and warm. They have an easy self check in and out process and a locked room you can leave your luggage to go about your day if you arrive earlier than check in, or stay later than your check out time. Staff were friendly and the facilities were kept stocked and clean. It was a much better experience at Lylo compared with another hostel I recently stayed at. I would definitely come again!
