This is hands down the best hostel I've ever stayed at—no exaggeration.

Plus, there's a beach just a short walk away, so you can enjoy the ocean breeze or relax on the sand without needing to travel far.

The Marion Hostel is incredibly convenient, located just a short walk from downtown Wellington. There are plenty of parking spots right outside the door, and nearby lots make it easy for those traveling by car. The staff are friendly and helpful, always ready to answer questions—plus they offer currency exchange and access to well-maintained laundry machines. The only downside was our room, which was right next to the staircase entrance. Every time someone opened or closed the door, the noise was extremely loud—so much so that the walls seemed to shake. With poor soundproofing, it was hard to sleep peacefully, especially since people were still coming and going late into the night. If they could install soft-close mechanisms on the stairway door, that would make a huge difference. Despite this, the common areas are clean, spacious, and thoughtfully equipped. Overall, it’s a great value for the price, and I’d definitely stay here again.

Whether you're traveling solo or with friends, the atmosphere is relaxed and inclusive, making it easy to connect with fellow travelers. I genuinely felt at home and would 100% come back if I ever visit Wellington again.
