Hostel Description

The backpackers hostel is directly behind the B&B and is a basic turn of the centry 5 bedroom villa with two bathrooms a small lounge and small equipped basic kitchen. The backpackers has twin rooms double rooms and 1 -4 bedded room. The en-suite room advertised is in the B&B and is a lovely room with electric blankets TV in room hairdryer etc.

Staying at Arden Street House is safe, clean, comfortable and affordable. The B&B commands impressive views over the north of Dunedin. One particularly impressive building that is visible from the front windows is Knox College, originally a training facility for Presbyterian ministers - it is now a home to first year students from the University of Otago and a theological college.

We have found two meanings to the word Arden. They were so lovely we thought we share them with you: The Greek and Latin meanings of the word 'Arden' are 'Eden' and 'Paradise' - this seems rather appropriate!
Dunedin Arts and Music Scene
With its high proportion of students and artists, Dunedin has a lively arts scene. Music-lovers, in particular, will be able to witness a huge variety of talent at many live venues around the city, many located within a short distance of Arden Street House.
