It's the most fun way to discover everything this country has to offer and meet like-minded travellers. New Zealand backpacker accommodation is considered to be of a consistently high quality. Most backpacker accommodation throughout the country offers a mixture of shared rooms (dormitories), as well as single, twin or double rooms for a higher (but still relatively cheap) cost. The facilities usually consist of a communal kitchen and bathroom, and a coin-operated laundry, although this does vary - many also have internet access, bars and TV lounges. Long-term rates are usually offered for those planning to stay awhile.

Taupo: Taupo is nestled on the northern shores of New Zealand's largest lake, Lake Taupo, surrounded by stunning volcanoes, bush clad mountains and a spectacular landscape. Cafes and restaurants in Taupo overlook the lake, and there is a good variety of retail therapy available. Some of the best trout fishing in the world has international anglers flocking to the area, which is also a great base for visitors wanting to take part in other sporting activities, whether land or water-based. A great variety of accommodation is available in Taupo, from luxury lodges and resorts, hotels and self-catering motor lodges, apartments and motels, to bed & breakfasts, and holiday parks with self-catering budget accommodation, backpackers lodge, campervan and campsites. Some accommodation is beachfront, and some establishments are pet friendly, by arrangement.
