Atlantis Backpackers, hotel in Anakiwa

Atlantis Backpackers is a minutes walk from Picton Waterfront and a 2-minute walk from Picton Train Station. This simple accommodation features barbecue facilities and free on-site parking.

This is probably going to be one of the most homely hostels I've stayed in. Books everywhere, piano, cd player and sound system, functional kitchen, birds, cats, every room has its own name. There's no tv, which is great because it means you can talk to fellow travelers. Even got off street parking 😀. Owner operated.

Looking for a hostel?
Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.
