The Marion

I stayed in a room on the top floor. The light from the hallway was beaming through the window above the door with no way to block it out. If you’re in a top bunk there is nothing to stop the light as there is no roof like you would have on the bottom bunk. The top bunk is very high with no barrier to stop you falling off in your sleep. If I was in a different room I may have enjoyed the stay more. There was also very little room to eat after cooking as there are so few tables.

Didn’t have the best time at the Marion, very noisy but ideal location. Right in the centre of town. Room 12 could do with some curtains. If you’re in the top bunk it’s like it’s midday when trying to sleep

Really tiny space for the price

Most expensive hostel of my travels but it pays off! This didn’t feel like a hostel, more like a bougie hotel. Lush bunk set ups, great location and delicious free weekend pancakes! Was very happy here for 5 nights

Very nice hostel to stay at for a longer time, little less suited for a solo traveller. Staff is mostly very nice. Kitchen is very nice, but too small and not always clean. Hostel layout is a little weird. Not much is done to stimulate guest interaction. Rooms &bathrooms are clean. Worst part is the security: it's just too much. All rooms can only be unlocked by a specific card. If you shower, go to the restroom, ... and forget your keycard, you're screwed. There was no backup for this.

Overall, a really nice place to stay in Wellington. It wasn’t worth a 9,8 because it wasn’t that clean.

The best hostel I've been so far, I think it's worth the money, but it's still a bit expensive, just a little. But it is great

The best hostel facilities but the atmosphere is super quiet

Loved it but no elevator is a let down

Amazing hostel - super clean, great beds with curtains and plug and shelves, fab chilling areas. Amazing showers. Kitchen also great, if a bit cramped at peak times. It was social in that it was easy to chat to people in the kitchen and everyone was friendly however there were no organised events (there was a crafts one advertised but I went to it and it seemed it had been cancelled).

This hostel has everything. A great location, clean rooms & bathrooms and great hanging out spots. The towels provided were large and we got robes. My friend and I were in a private double and it felt like a hotel. Kitchen was a bit small but we weren’t cooking anyway. I’d love to stay here again.

Great hostel. Rooms are really spacious and the beds very comfortable. Facilities in general were great, including excellent showers, big kitchen and a few different communal areas to watch TV or read a book. There were a lot of things which make things easier for backpackers including free towel, and free items for cooking like milk, spices, olive oil etc. They also organised events which help to meet other travellers, like the yoga classes. Staff were friendly and welcoming at check in.

Ein echt schönes Hostel. Ich fands fantastisch da

Possibly the best hostel in Wellington!

my very first hostel experience ! booked my stay right before my plane took off to wellington - they had availability for what i was looking for & the reception answered my email in an extremely timely manner inquiring about a late check in the day of. very social place, staff are very nice, it's basically walking distance to everything and met a bunch of new friends! would 1000% stay here again !!

Absolutely fantastic hostel. Everything is perfect.

Amazing location, clean and comfortable facilities!

Parfait ! je recommande. Personnel adorable, très propre et bien situé

My favourite hostel in New Zealand. The rooms were big & the hostel very clean. The free tea & coffee is a nice touch. I also found this hostel to be the most social & have already recommended it to a friend who is due to visit Wellington.

Very nice hostel with so much to offer. Sometimes felt like it wasn't the most social despite having multiple communal rooms. It was very clean and felt very safe.

Overall really nice hostel! Spacious beds and showers, with a friendly and helpful staff. It’s in a nice location with only a two minute walk to Cuba street. Would stay here again!

Great rooms and facilities. The free tea and coffee is such a nice touch! It was a bit hard to meet people here and the activities advertised on Hostelworld didn’t seem to take place. Two areas to improve: the ladders to get to the top bunks are lethal and the shower heads in the shared facilities need a good clean. Overall would definitely recommend and would stay again.

great and clean hostel, bed was very comfy

Worth the money

The most amazing hostel. Staff are increadible. Free tea and coffee and breakfast on a weekend. Everyone wad so lovley couldnt be in a better location.

Such a great hostel with great location! Very very clean and luxurious vibes all around! Beds are super comfortable and there’s lot of space + a side table, lamps and sockets! Kitchen is very well equipped and multiple lounge areas ensure that you’ll always find peaceful corner or social spaces - whatever your feeling!
