Friendly staffGreat location
CynthiaNew ZealandThe location is great and staffs are friendly.
The bed is uncomfortable and facilities are quite old.
Celine LundDKRigtig fin mulighed for folk som ikke er til hostel oplevelsen men stadig gerne vil have den budget venlige mulighed. Vi
Der var rent og pænt og der var hvad man skulle bruge. Super god lokation - tæt på centrum, indkøb og gondolen.
Afløbet i brusekabinen virkede dårligt så der kom vand over det hele desværre.
En god ide til næste gæster…
NIcoleAustraliaClose to city centre and bus for trips was just down the road.

Questions about The Flaming Kiwi Backpackers
What time is check-in and check-out at The Flaming Kiwi Backpackers?
Check-in is from 2:00 PM. Check-out is by 10:00 AM. If you're arriving late, tell us and we'll ask the property to hold the room.
Does The Flaming Kiwi Backpackers allow pets?
No — the property states that pets are not allowed.
Is there parking at The Flaming Kiwi Backpackers?
Yes — the property states that parking on site is free. Whether a space can be reserved in advance varies, so we check it against your dates.
Does The Flaming Kiwi Backpackers have Wi-Fi?
Yes — internet access is listed among the property's facilities.
Does The Flaming Kiwi 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.
How do I book The Flaming Kiwi 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.
