★ ★ ★ ★ ★ My stay at Choice Backpackers was absolutely perfect! All of the facilities were easy to find, clean and in working order. The rooms were spacious and the beds very comfortable! On top of that, the price is unbeatable!

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Very good location, accessible to public transportation, skybus and restaurants. The building is quite old but felt secured because they are using access keys. I stayed in their private room and it's peaceful and quiet most of the time. The room is tidy but don't trust the old floor carpet, always wear your Jandals. Well organized late check-in process. Very helpful staff members.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I stayed 3 days and it was ok and cheap for a short period. The double bed was not very confortable and I could heard the conversation of the other rooms. The toilet and shower were clean

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I would like to inform that you guys have little bit aware about kitchen and dinning area. Either you guys are over all ok.
Need electric katle in every single suits. It's not making sense giving you guys money and every time guests have to go only for hot water at level 3 and other guests already engage with that katle already for using at kitchen.
Very small small things u guys just need touchup with care.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ A good affordable place to stay in a very central Auckland location, where you don't have to walk far in either direction to find something to see, browse some shops down Queen Street, take a sightseeing ferry from Queens Wharf, admire the yachts at the Wynyard Quarter, or other amenities in the central city.
Situated just off a main intersection half way along central Queen Street and diagonally across from the Civic Theatre, the location alone made it a good stay. A two minute walk across the same street is the Auckland Central Library and an IMAX cinema is right beside the Civic Theatre. Numerous shops line both sides of the long Queen Street, where small metro supermarkets can be found a few blocks away.
The property itself was a little worn around the edges, but the staff there kept all communal areas cleaned and sanitised daily. There was one occasion when the staff had to handle the situation of a guest contracting Covid-19, but they handled the situation quickly and with appropriate safety measures in place. Well done!
Of the floors I saw, the fifth where my room was had an Egyptian mural painted on the hallway walls, and the third floor where the kitchen and laundry both are, had a Kiwiana (New Zealand-themed) mural. Of the kitchen, it was small but functional, where four people would make it crowded. It was closed everyday between 3:30 - 5:00 PM for thorough cleaning and fully closed between 10:30 PM and 6:00 AM.
Due to concerns of Covid-19 (Omicron variant), I didn't feel comfortable sharing the lounge, TV room, or pool table spaces, which are all located at the ground floor (basement really) entrance area. After reception hours any front door access is by security swipe fob, as is access to any floors in the lifts.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Dorm rooms are spacious. Love how each of the facilities are in their own separate room but within proximity to each other. Love how guests can be employed to service the hostel. Especially loved the warm and friendly natured guests. Am pleased that Choice Backpackers takes good care of our guests.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Very nice, tidy we had our own bathroom too, so that was great. The guy forgot to tell us the lift only stops on certain floors goung downwards, after 9pm, no major, except we ended up walking down 9 flights of stairs to get out, cause once you enter the stairwell, the doors back in are all locked. Otherwise it was great. Excellent air conditioning.
