Fantastic This is a great place to stay. The amenities are very good and clean and tidy. Dorm rooms are comfortable but can get quite warm. Good location opposite the wharf and within 30 minutes walking treat grounds and other walking tracks. Staff are very good and informative and will provide you with plenty of help if needed.

FantasticSolo stay
Really nice hostel! The staff are lovely and willing to help with whatever questions you have! Stayed in the 4-bed female dorm and it was pretty good - the floor was quite creaky underneath the carpets in the room so it was hard to be quiet when I had to be up early some of the days (thankfully the other guests were not bothered by this!). The head space on the top bunk was a bit tight but I was comfortable enough for the stay. Bathrooms and shower rooms were clean and tidy. Kitchen and common areas were very spacey and you never felt like you were climbing on top of anyone while cooking. There wasn’t too many people during my stay but it was also early spring. The hostel is also not even 5 minutes walk from where the tours typically go from and where the intercity buses go. Would recommend this place for anyone staying in the area.

Haka Lodge reflects its past as a YHA hostel with all the facilities and ambience of the youth hostel which encourages interaction with other guests.
We were impressed with the helpfulness and pleasantness of the staff in answer to our questions about Paihia and Russell.
The facilities are clean, well kept and presented.

Good Great staff (thanks Martin) and a very comfortable bed.
BUT ... most main showers had no liquid soap, and all of the ventilation fan inlets above those showers were blocked solidly with lint.
The hand soap dispenser in our room was so high on the wall it was virtually impossible to use properly, plus the washhand basin is stupidly installed.
We do not recommend this accommodation.

Below averageSolo stay
It’s a worn down hostel, and since it is a part of the Haka Hostel chain, where I have stayed at other locations, I was surpriced at the low standard.
The staff is very serviceminded and friendly, but that doesn’t outwieght the small and badly ventilated rooms.

GoodStayed with family · For leisure
The hostel is so central in Paihia it makes walking around to the many eating and shopping locations easy. We were in room 11 which was at the end of the hallway and did not get a lot of AC and the window didn't open. The small TV which is steictly facing one of the beds and cant rotate, also doesnt have cable or casting abilities. There was a DVD player so we grabbed a couole movies from the lounge just to find out the DVD player was broken so we ended up watching a movie on a laptop. I had messaged, emailed, and done the online check in to say I was going to be arriving late and still got a bit of sass from the staff when I called looking for check in instructions. The email with the info came through an hour after we checked in. Otherwise, it was average at best, but you get what you pay for!
