Decided to stay here the night before my ferry.Good location to the ports, a fair amount of parking on the street and a few out front of the hostel.If you're coming to just stay the night I'd recommend trying to park after 6pm as everything on the streets we'll be free.

One of the best hostels I've ever stayed at, lots of nice extra touches, kitchen is awesome, they make a real effort to be environmentally friendly. Lots of great common areas.

Fantastic hostel. Would highly recommend.We stayed with kids aged 7 and 10 in a private family room with shared bathroom. The room was clean and light.This was our first time staying in a youth hostel and we have since realised it sets the bar very high and is one of the best out there.The kitchen is very well equipped and clean. The lounge is a little tired but comfortable and homely. The cinema room is an amazing bonus! The hostel felt clean, safe and welcoming. Good job Dwellington!

One of the best, if not the best, hostels i have ever stayed in. Lovely welcoming vibe, towels, good beds, amazing free breakfast in the morning including eggs (eggs!! Like gold dust at the moment) and great indoor/outdoor communal space.

As our final night in Welly we wanted to experience a hostel stay for the first time and I'm glad we did! We stayed on a Wednesday night so it was quiet around the common areas but was a great place to relax, read, and do laundry after a long day. My favorite part was the organized chaos of making breakfast all alongside ~10 other people, felt like being part of a big family.Oh, we left two beers in the beer fridge if someone wants to have them! Check the third shelf near the front.

Wow, what a hostel! I've stayed in many over the years and this is definitely one of the best. Rooms and bathrooms are kept very clean, the common areas are really nice and spacious, the staff are friendly, there is a big supermarket opposite, there is free breakfast and even free use of a sauna in the squash club next door! The only feedback I would give is that the sauna wasn't mentioned when I checked in or on the website so I only knew because I looked at other reviews. But definitely recommend this place, you can't go wrong.

Yes you have to walk up hills to get to the hostel but believe me, it’s worth it. They have breakfast included. I’ve never seen so many offered for breakfast in a hostel. Also there is free coffee, tea and HOT CHOCOLATE!! How awesome! The hostel is beautiful, well decorated. The bathroom and showers were clean. The even offer facecloth!! The kitchen is well equipped. The have tones of different spices. The only negative thing I can say is : The cooking pans were really bad. Everything sticked to it, so it was hard to wash. But other than that, I loved everything about the dwellington!

Stayed here with 2 friends. Really convenient location, amazing communal areas, and friendly staff. Room was a little small but that was not really an issue at all! Definitely would stay here again and would recommend to others travelling to Wellington.

Great stay! The hostel is wonderful and beautiful set up. The shared bathrooms were very clean, and the shared kitchen and yard were a great hang out area. The walls were very thin and all the doors slam closed which made for a long night. Parking is either just in front or just around the corner of the street for cheap. They also had a breakfast with great options! Staff were friendly and willing to help if we had any issues!
