Welcome to Brown Kiwi!

We are one of Auckland's most fabulous budget hostels and we pride ourselves on making sure you make new friends and find out all about travelling and working in New Zealand.

We are a small, friendly hostel in the heart of the very best part of Auckland - close to motorways, buses, downtown but with cafes, banks and a supermarket just a stroll away.

Our back garden and farmhouse kitchen are where you can meet and chill with new friends, plan your NZ adventures and find out how to buy a car or get a job. We are here to welcome and help you.

"A real home away from home". See our Hostellers Comments.

Our rooms
We have double and twin rooms and a family room, or bedrooms with dormitory style, purpose-built adult bunk beds. We welcome short and longer stay guests. All our beds are fully made up with fresh cotton sheets and duvets.
