A lovely eccentric hostel, very clean and quiet. The staff are very attentive and all spaces are clean and have a real homey feeling. A place where you can put up feet and just relax surrounded by books and a cozy fireplace.
That it allows pets. The location and convenience of the place as well.

The place is so nice, the staff,the people were so kind. I like to decoration of the place. The kitchen has everything. Nothing to complain.
Beautiful vintage hostel, perfect for an overnight stay if you're taking the night ferry to Picton. Great atmosphere, the owners are incredibly friendly, the kitchen is well-equipped, and breakfast is included, all for an unbeatable price. Located very close to the ferry terminal, so you don't have to drive far after your trip, and it also includes free parking. The hostel is beautifully decorated with murals, you can see the dedication and love the owners have put into maintaining it. Everything was very clean overall, well-heated, and the beds are comfortable. They don't mind a late check-in at all. We arrived around 12:30 pm and they were waiting for us at reception, which we really appreciated. Our stay was short, but I would definitely return to this hostel 😄
Loveliest staff - welcoming and inclusive Extremely well equipped kitchen Comfy bed Super convenient location Old school, eclectic decor - lots to read and do
Great location, lovely staff.
Everything was great.
Great location, unique and homely interior. Warm and welcoming staff. Special thanks to Sheira (hopefully spelt correctly) - the owner who was so sweet, gregarious and instantly made me feel at home. If you’re in Picton. This is the place to stay!
I couldn’t stay longer!
スタッフが親切。夜にはケーキを焼いてくれました。
スタッフさんがフレンドリーだったこと、夕食後のデザートはとても美味しかったです。設備も綺麗でした。内装も結構好きです。
特にありません。
The staff are amazing. I forgot the beautiful lady’s name but I will always remember her hospitality, warm welcome and obviously the history she talks about when she’ll show around the premises.
It’s pretty average for what you pay. A bit old and historic building. Cheaper stay right at the central location. The big difference is staff. They’re amazing and kind.
Very quirky accommodation. Very accommodating host. She was far happier than she should have been getting out of bed to let us in after midnight... She also rearranged our rooming to accommodate an extra person.
All good
The venue is fantastic.. reminiscent of a good vibe film set with lovely characters playing their parts with courteous, creative efficiency. I’ll be back..🤩
The hostel is gorgeous with lots of murals and things dotted around the spaces. The room was comfortable and warm which is what we needed in winter. Perfect location to get onto the ferry.
All the staff were really nice, everything was clean and confortable
I spend here two different nights in two different rooms. Staff was so nice and helpful and made me feel right at home. The hostel itself has a really unique atmosphere. The location is very good, the ferry terminal is near as well as the bus stop and its also in walking distance from very beautiful hiking trails. It was tidy and comfortable and also included a breakfast that was served early in the morning which was super nice! I really enjoyed my time there and the conversations I had :)
Super eccentric place! Lovely staff, highly recommend checking it out. Definitely something to see. Comfortable and cosy with dessert at 7pm daily.
Thinner walls, but not a major. Don’t stay if allergic to cats as they have cats.
La gérante et le lieux sont juste authentique et incroyable ! Une expérience à vivre une fois dans sa vie. Les chambres mon fait penser à une cousinade
Die Lage ist super, man wird herzlich begrüßt, das Hostel ist sehr individuell und bunt gestaltet, man findet in jedem Raum was zu gucken. Mein Bett war sehr bequem, die Küche ist super ausgestattet und das Bad sehr sauber.
地理位置算不错
设施非常陈旧,床上用品是时候需要更新了
Evening
Nothing
Il posto è molto originale e pittoresco. Ogni singolo angolo della casa è dipinto con murales da terra al soffitto, vi sono moltissimi oggetti che danno all'ambiente un'aria di casa vintage e hippy, tutto è molto vissuto e personalizzato e ci si sente in famiglia. L'accoglienza è straordinaria, la titolare è gentilissima e generosa. Un luogo vitale. A solo due minuti dal traghetto.
Le camere non hanno finestre, questo potrebbe essere un problema per chi soffre di claustrofobia. I bagni e le docce sono dalla parte opposta delle camere, quindi bisogna passare in mezzo al soggiorno dalla camera al bagno. Essendoci moltissimi oggetti è normale che ci sia polvere.
It's very easy to find the backpackers, since Picton is a small town, and it's just beside the main road of the town centre. The room is small but cozy. It has such a big kitchen, and you can use it anytime.
In winter, the room is a little bit cold.
Very friendly. Well run backpackers.
Great atmosphere. Lovely staff. Got stuck an extra night and the place was super accommodating. Would stay again
Everything

I booked late at night and was accepted on short notice.I rung the reception and was taken for a walk around then where I sleep. The bed was so comfortable had the best sleep ever. I loved all the artwork I felt comfortable there it had a homely quirky vibe and the owner was so lovely.
There was nothing I didn't like about it.
The vibe and people are great. The staff is very kind. It has everything one needs, and it’s decorated in a unique and beautiful way.
L’emplacement très proche du port
Le wifi gratuit qui marche 2 minutes et qui revient 1h après voir plus. Toilette et douche unisexe.
Close to boat and town
Lovely little spot! Free evening cakes and very warm cosy vibes! Lovely hosts, would recommend to anyone.
Nothing!
Great place good vibes nice people comfortable beds
It was an exceptional experience, haha. It is very funny, cluttered and the most unusual place with interesting characters around. I had a good time. It was a decent place to stay a night.
Bit kitsch but worth the experience
Old and cold
An impressive and vibrant backpacker hostel with a warm and genuinely heartfelt welcome. The hosts go above and beyond to make every guest feel comfortable and truly at home—they are simply wonderful. The location is fantastic, right by the harbor and the sea, and just a short walk from the ferry.
性價比高,位置離碼頭近,竟然有提供夜間小點心,很溫馨舒適的背包旅館!
淋浴間間數較少,淋浴間排水不良會積水。廁所男女共用,有時沒那麼乾淨。
L’accueil, la gentillesse et la bonté des hôtes sont un gros plus! On nous a recommandé pleins d’endroits très intéressants à visiter aux alentours et on a même eu l’opportunité de gouter à un dessert allemand préparé par l’hôte. Nous avons eu un petit pépin mécanique, ce qui nous a empêché de faire notre check-out dans les temps prévus. Les hôtes ont été très accommodants et compréhensifs. Nous avons été accueilli à l’intérieur d’une grande famille et nous en gardons que de bons souvenirs. Gros plus pour le déjeuner gratuit!
Very cheap (for a reason)
In our 6 months of travelling this is the only place we’ve turned up to and immediately left. We have been budget backpacking and stayed in some pretty questionable places. Room smelled of smoke, only 3 unisex bathrooms for entire hostel at other side of building. Stains on bedding. Window above door with no curtain or blind. The property mentions being eclectic and full of personality (read: cluttered and unclean). Would urge anyone booking to read the numerous Google reviews about bed bugs & fleas (even 5* ones mention fleas!) and to also notice how the property replies to poor reviews. Be aware the only parking is 60 min street parking outside the property (we thought there was free off-street parking as advertised but that’s not the case).
Quirky art and decor in a comfy backpackers
The staff were so welcoming, the property was lovely and clean and very cozy with the fireplace. It’s in a great location too. If I pass back through Picton I would not hesitate to come back. Thankyou :)
Great staff and location
Nothing
nice people nice location beds are cool
good accessibility from the ferry
small room with no ventilation and no window.
Suited my purpose.
Nothing to report.
It was lovely staying in this place. It has wonderful atmosphere and very friendly staff:) Highly recommended ☺️
Staff was so nice and explained everything when I arrived. Poster with info, decoration, games, books, music were all around the place. It’s two minutes away from the ferry which is awesome. Kitchen had everything and more. They offer breakfast. I really enjoyed my stay so much!
El recibimiento, el trato y lo pintoresco que es
Me gustó todo
The host were really friendly and chatty and helpful.
Nothing
Very quirky place. Extremely well equipped and good facilities, nice location and the artwork all around was lovely. The breakfast and dessert was also very tasty and a nice touch. Will definitely come back to spend more time there.
Nothing to complain about
Atlantis was the real deal. The Art work decor was exceptional The Host was lovely too Fire place and books
Not much ... maybe the rule of wiping shower walls after showering lol.
Amazing staff who were so welcoming and helpful, property was really clean, great value for money, and super close to the ferry
There was nothing I didn’t like.
the location was great, really near the intercity bus stop and ferry! there’s dessert at 7pm and breakfast in the morning, really yummy! the staff were really friendly too~ wish there was wifi n hairdryer tho
The location,the vibes and the staff is awesome!love this hostel and surrounding area.
