Braemar House B&B and YHA Hostel

Great place to stay

Friendly helpful host with chance to.meet diversity of people culture abd age without judgement and unrealistic expectation

Fabulous family and great facilities with a lovely vibe. Super clean, cozy and safe

Great facilities and lovely surroundings

Clean. Convenient economical. Most places have a sheet about their facilities. This was advertised as bed and breakfast. There was a kitchen but there was a prominent notice "Kitchen facilities to be used by staff only". (Quoted from memory. Probably referring to equipment. I just wanted cereal and milk, but with that "rule" I left with no breakfast and bought on the road. If bed and breakfast the breakfast shold be findable.

Wonderful staff that made you feel really welcome, polite dog included. Squishy bed but cleanliness wonderful.

Very welcoming and helpful staff. Quiet street. Good communal outdoor courtyard.

The staff were friendly and helpful

.

Good Hosts, Quiet location near the river and walkable into the CBD. Very good value for money this was my second visit in two months

Amazing old building and and hosts very friendly and helpful

Nice quiet location, walkable to town, clean comfortable room and great value

clean hostel

It was a lovely spot quiet, handy to town and exactly what we needed. Well be back

This was very reasonably priced at 85 for me and my daughter for 1 night. It was a cute clean small room with 2 single beds and a mirror. The shared bathroom was clean and approx 2metres away from our room and the shared kitchen & lounge within 5-6 metres away. My daughter is in a wheel chair and although its not an accessible place i was able to wheel her up the step to our room and bathroom easily. There was a beautiful walkway over a bridge with a skate park, wonderful childrens park and beautiful views one minute away walking. The room got slightly cold but there was extra blankets the beds were comfortable. Staff friendly and not annoying

this place was really nice had a decent bathroom area, the kitchen felt a little bit dirty but not bad at all. the outside area was lovely. staff were kind and inviting. the beds were comfy and there wasnt much outside noise.

I always enjoy my stays at the Braemar House . Its also a historical building with a fascination history . Its in beautiful condition and an excellent presentation of the old charm of New Zealand not found in modern architecture . Cozy area for group meetings in the patio area and ample size kitchen for gatherings to prepare food . Love it .

Good place to stay with kitchen facilities and clean comfortable room

property has lots of character handy to the main shops. close to the yellow house.....enjoyable cafe.

Staff very welcoming and informative. Clean property, good location next to the river and not far from supermarkets. Would stay here again however I did have a few little issues. The doorbell outside wasn’t working so I had to wait at the front door for a while until someone saw my shadow in the glass and let me in. The room I was in with the en-suite would be a little bit cramped when full if there are 5 beds and 5 bags/suitcases as there isn’t much floor space. There also weren’t enough plugs. I could only find one set of 2 which wasn’t enough for the 3 of us that were staying there that night, especially as one of them was being used for the lamp. In addition to this, an early check out key deposit box would be good. You may have one but I couldn’t find it, I had to fling the key under the gap in the door to the office and hope it didn’t lodge itself under any of the furniture/slip out of sight.
