Still unsure whether we are the right choice for you? Hear from some of our past long term guests:
"Best hostel ever!!! ???????? You won't find another hostel better than Blacksheep - My home away from home. Great place to stay if you're working in Queenstown and wanting long term accommodation. Made lifelong friends with the other guests and the staff. I really enjoyed; the lounge with the fireplace, garden, spa & sauna, comfy beds, and just overall vibe. The whole place feels very homely and is very clean - the staff work so hard to keep everyone happy. The monthly calender activities like movie night, free dinner, paint and sip and cupcake decorating are a must do! Also - only a few minutes walk into queenstown center (great for midnight trips to night and day). Definitely going back here."

"It’s such a social place as the hosts do a great job with the socials, particularly the free dinners, free bbq, fun quizzes, free cooking classes, sauna is amazing! The staff which host it as well are great, Molly and Darta made me feel very welcome. I’ve stayed at a few hostels in Queenstown and I keep extending my stay here because I wouldn’t want to stay anywhere else."
- Laura, Germany
"I stayed at black sheep for just about 6 months as a long term over winter and I absolutely loved my stay. The staff are the most wonderful, helpful and friendly group of humans, the social aspects are amazing and I met some friends who I hope to stay in contact with for life. Everything about the hostel is amazing, it’s clean, super close to town, safe and has a great vibe about it and the facilities included are great (especially the sauna). I 100% recommend staying there and if I’m ever in Queenstown without a flat again I will be back"

"Thanks to the people there and the cosy lounge, it feels like home:). The environment is super friendly and heartful! They clean often and the sauna and hot tub there are very convenient as well as the free coffee, chocolate, sugar and tea which they refill daily."
