Featuring a garden, shared lounge and views of sea, Napier Art House Backpackers is located in Napier, a 1-minute walk from Napier Beach.

It was a rainy day, and I was allowed to stay in the TV room until my afternoon bus left the city. The shower was perfect - easy to operate and no dangling coils. One bathroom just for women. Near 3 huge supermarkets.

Looking for a hostel?
Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    The seafront location. The friendly atmosphere. The comfortable mattress. The chatty manager, Arthur. It's rather like an old style youth hostel, with the friendly vibe and the alcohol ban, but without the other YHA restrictions.

    Great to have secure parking, especially as travelling alone. I didn't mind paying for assigned car park, as it felt safer than on the street. Great location and friendly staff, very helpful. It was very quiet for being placed near CBD. Enjoyed my stay.

    It’s a great location right by the seafront and centre of town. There’s cheap all day parking at the end of the street. The lady at the front desk was lovely.
