Brittany Wheeler thinks

The history and feel of the building were really neat, and the close proximity to the station was wonderful!

If you want to make the most of your stay in Wellington then make sure you choose Downtown Backpackers as your first choice for accommodation.

Situated directly opposite the railway station Downtown Backpackers is ideally located, being the closest hostel to trains, buses and the inter-island ferry, and the new stadium, the city area and Te Papa, Wellington's fabulous Museum of New Zealand.

Downtown Backpackers is located in Wellington's historic Art Deco Waterloo Hotel, a former high class hotel which was chosen for the Queens 1953 Coronation Tour.

This hotel was one of the top hotels in the
Southern Hemisphere in its day. It is a classic example of the podium design of Art Deco architecture and is listed as historically significant by both the Historic Places Trust and the Wellington City Council.

We want Wellington to be a highlight of your NZ experience and we have lots of information to help you to plan your stay.
