About

Welcome to Adventure Q2 Hostel!

Adventure Q2 caters to young independent travellers from around the world, offering a vibrant, lively and social experience, which reflects Queenstown in general. Our interactive team run in-house activities and events most nights a week, to make it easy to meet fellow travellers from around the world.

Our fantastically central location is right in the heart of town, meaning you are close to everything! The Village Green is right across the street to enjoy a drink in the sun. Our common areas are compact, but ideal for socialising and engaging with fellow travellers. We are a smaller hostel with a maximum capacity of just 55 beds - ideal for fun times and keeping a familial, lively atmosphere.

Designed and created by the owners of the multi award-winning Adventure Queenstown Hostel, we have taking our years of experience to build a hostel that is specifically designed for all a traveller needs. All our beds are custom designed timber bunks with comfortable innerspring mattresses and come with lights, USB & power charging outlets, curtains and all linen and towels provided free of charge!

We offer loads of other free stuff; such as sporting gear, bikes (in the summer), go-pros, tablet computers and more.
Adventure Q2 even provide a simple laundry service - whereby we wash, dry and return your clothes giving you more time to make the most of Queenstown!

The hostel also has a separate storage/locker room on each floor and secure bicycle parking and ski & snowboard storage on the ground floor. A handy elevator provides access to all floors.

Due to our super central location, Adventure Q2 does not have parking for guests (or our staff!) We are located less than 20 metres from the Intercity bus stop, which is handy for Intercity travellers. If you do require parking, please reach out to our team and we can offer you a handy guide with nearby locations, free and paid.

I had a great time, the rooms are lovely and very clean, each bed has its own curtain for privacy, and if you are short of space for your stuff, they have locker rooms in each floor to put your things there. Bathrooms in general are great, had minor problems sometimes with hot water but i think its understandable… Staff was always very friendly and helped me anytime i needed anything Kitchen is great, lots of room for cooking or having your stuff there. Overall, great experience. Thumbs up!
