overview

Perfect for schools and large groups! Find out more

In the middle of Arthur's Pass Village, you'll find our cosy backpacker lodge complete with multiple room types, a spacious communal kitchen, and homely lounge. This well-located accommodation is a hiker's haven, and our guests enjoy the low-maintenance small-hostel feel they come home to.

We're happy to help with tips for your stay; YHA Arthur’s Pass staff are experienced kiwi listeners and can give good instructions about where to go to hear these special New Zealand birds. Keas visit the hostel frequently; let us know if you need help spotting them!

As groceries are expensive and limited in Arthur's Pass Village, we recommend bringing food supplies and topping up on fuel before you leave for Arthur's Pass. Hokitika, Greymouth, or Christchurch before you arrive.
