Sometimes possible to stay longer: International Travellers

Sometimes possible to stay longer: International Travellers

Over the last few years with Covid restrictions, we've had to change and adapt.  The basics are still the same - we aim to create a warm, caring, fun vibe where Travellers can relax and meet others, share stories, have experiences and for some that means staying quite awhile.  One aspect of Covid was that we enjoyed having some travellers stay on longer than a few nights - we got to know them well and it created a very special traveller's community with lasting friendships made.  We continue to welcome Travellers to come and stay both short & slightly longer term.  If you want to stay for a few week's or even a month, which can be a great way to start your NZ/Aotearoa experience or to take a break mid way and foster closer relationships, then this may be possible.  There is lots of work in Nelson all year round within walking distance from the hostel or ride share - cafe, admin, horticulture, in the port & for fishing companies, painting & working in construction.  If you work on-line or are a student we have fast WIFI & spaces to work in.

We have become well known for this nightly treat .....

Hot Chocolate pudding (vegan friendly) & ice cream served every evening, every night of the year @ 8pm.  Sometimes ... there is a fruit crumble instead.  A nice vibe is created thru this daily ritual which draws people together.
