SamanthaEverything was nice and clean albeit slightly older. The balcony was lovely to use on the sunny afternoon! The free earplugs were perfect to block out the rowdy partygoers downstairs!

Questions about Nomads Queenstown Backpackers
What time is check-in and check-out at Nomads Queenstown Backpackers?
Check-in is from 3:00 PM. Check-out is by 11:00 AM. If you're arriving late, tell us and we'll ask the property to hold the room.
Does Nomads Queenstown Backpackers allow pets?
No — the property states that pets are not allowed.
Does Nomads Queenstown Backpackers have a pool?
Yes — a pool is listed among the property's facilities. Seasonal closures are common, so we'll confirm it's open for your dates.
Does Nomads Queenstown Backpackers have Wi-Fi?
Yes — internet access is listed among the property's facilities.
Does Nomads Queenstown Backpackers have wheelchair accessible rooms?
The property lists step-free or accessible facilities. That flag is the one least able to settle the question: a hotel can carry it and still have a step at the entrance, or a bath rather than a roll-in shower, and it does not say whether the accessible room is free on your dates. Tell us what you need and we'll ask the property directly rather than reading you the flag.
Can I check in late at Nomads Queenstown Backpackers?
The property lists a front desk staffed 24 hours, so a late arrival should be possible. Standard check-in is from 3:00 PM. Rooms are still released after a cut-off at some properties regardless of the desk hours, so tell us your arrival time and we'll have them hold it.
How do I book Nomads Queenstown Backpackers?
Put your dates in above and book online, or call (888) 789-8585 and we'll do it for you — including things a booking form can't handle, like a block of rooms, a monthly rate or an invoice for your employer.
