Reviews
Good food, cozy ambiance, and super friendly staff. Lots of seating and the coffee is just perfect.nnAfter three years living in Invercargill, it’s my first time trying this café, and I’m glad I did. The pie was huge with homemade pastry, and the frittata with salad was delicious.nnReasonably priced, and I’ll definitely be back.
Go to the Pub if nobody at the reception despite opening time.nStayed one night in private single room which provided towel before heading to Steward Island.nReturned from Steward Island , I stayed in 8beds dormitory. This time no towel given and the bed doesn’t have shade to close for privacy.nAnd this time facing the pub owned by the same hostel and road thus pretty noisy with the loud music and from the vehicles. The heater is not strong since it’s a bigger 8 bedder dormitory.nLocation is excellent given it’s right in front of the Intercity coach pick up and drop off area and also very near to Invercargill Mall and Park n Save, the cheap grocery mall.nSuggested to stay in the private single room which has better facing than the dormitory as the latter face the noisy road and loud music from the Pub downstairs.nOh they charge $10 per day for secured lock room of your luggage but I decided to choose the unsecured manner ie just left it beside the staircase.nHowever all good as just bring your own toiletries and towel and make sure you charge your phone in the lounge or kitchen as there is only 2 power points in the 8 bedder dorm and one used for the heater !!!
I stayed at Tuatara Lodge in Invercargill and had a good overall experience. The room was clean, the service friendly and helpful, and the lodge offered all the basics you need for a short stay.nnThe location is okay, within walking distance of the town centre, cafés and shops. However, parking can be a bit tricky, especially during busier times, as spaces are limited.nnNothing fancy, but a solid and reliable place to stay if you're passing through Southland.
The actual rooms and building is in great condition, everything was clean, tidy and comfortable. The kitchen is great.nnI think it would have been great through the week, but I stayed on a Saturday night and didn’t get to sleep until after 2am, due to cars racing on the street and people partying on the street, so bring earphones if you are there on the weekend!nnGreat value for money though.
Nice hostel in the heart of the city.nnI stayed one night in a single room, it was basic but warm and comfortable, decent for the price. Common areas are well-equipped and clean, showers are hot, the staff was really friendly.nnOnly downsides are:nn- walls are very thin, so you'll hear what happens in the rooms around you, in the corridor and even outside.n- parking your car can be tricky as you have to park on the street, but it's free at nightnnOverall, I was pretty satisfied with my stay and would recommend this place for budget travelers.
