BOOKINGS - the BBH way Spontaneous travel is fundamental to the BBH philosophy. To wake up in the morning, not really sure where you’ll be at the day’s end is something most can only dream of. But it IS possible with BBH and here’s your chance to try it. Think carefully before pre-booking your full itinerary months ahead. Visitors frequently want to change their plans once they are in NZ and learn about alternative places that pique their interest or just discover an idyllic place and want to stay for a few extra days.
Register
First, pre-register your credit card details with BBH on our secure server then book all the BBHs you choose. All of your BBH bookings can be managed from your BBH profile.
Use one of the following booking types:
Book Online
Online Bookings Note for Club Card Holders
To book ahead before OR after you arrive in NZ, the To enjoy BBH prices, you MUST BBH ONLINE BOOKING register your Club Card number service offers the biggest on your BBH online profile page selection of the best NZ BEFORE you submit backpacker accommodation a booking request. ANYWHERE online. To get started, go to www.bbh.co.nz, search the Accommodation Listings and use the ‘Request a Booking’ button next to your preferred accommodation.
Booking Confirmation Times Online booking requests must be made a full day before the day of the booking. A response may be immediate. For the typically smaller hostels in BBH, there may be a longer response time. It WILL be before noon next day at the very latest.
Multi-Room option During the busy summer months, we strongly recommend you use the feature that allows you to add multiple room options and multiple hostel requests for the town in order of preference - all in one booking request. 6
For those on tighter time schedules, or travelling in the peak summer months, pre-booking may be preferable. Even then, two or three days advance notice is usually enough to secure a bed. Whatever your preference - BBH has a solution for everyone. Booking direct with hostels means giving out your credit card details on a nightly basis to guarantee a reservation. BBH offers a secure alternative for travellers using our network.
Fees Registration NZ$2 one-off fee, or FREE with a BBH Club Card

HOPEWELL A BBH Success Story Since 1991 - long before the Internet and TripAdvisor et al, BBH has run an annual census style survey to provide a unique, NZ-exclusive insight into hostel accommodation. On a pre-selected night in February, all guests at BBH hostels are encouraged to rate ALL of their NZ hostel experiences on a scale of total ENJOYMENT from1 - 10. For more than a decade, HOPEWELL, a jewel set in the exquisite Marlborough Sounds, has topped the rating charts with consistent scores of 98 and 99%. Last year, its beautiful setting, wonderful facilities and a total commitment to hospitality all came together for a 100% perfection result. This means that guests in BBHs all over NZ, who had visited Hopewell in the days, weeks or months before survey, had given a perfect 10 out of 10. This year, one respondent felt that Hopewell was a little too far off the main road, and their score brought Hopewell’s BPP back to only 99.3! It’s tough at the top! But even if you’re unable to sample Hopewell’s perfection, we’re very confident that our totally NZ focused BPP rating system is the best guide to NZ’s special places enjoyed so much for so long by so many special travellers. Try it and rely on it.

There’s more to BBH than beds and bookings Travel Insurance
Consider this...
On the long trips, travel insurance has a way of expiring while you’re not looking and just when you need it. If that’s happened to you, there’s some well thought out, BBH sourced, travel insurance available, also on our website.
BBH Noticeboards Whether you need to work to top up your travel funds or wheels to explore the real NZ - you’ll need... GENERAL WORK VACANCIES • HOSTEL JOBS • WORK WANTED • VEHICLE BUY & SELL And if you enjoyed BBH life so much, you can even buy your own slice of heaven... you won’t be the first to do so! Get started... go to
www.bbh.co.nz
3rd 3rd Party Party Vehicle Vehicle Insurance Insurance Owning your own vehicle provides flexibility for longer stays. But, it could completely ruin your holiday if you had to pay out 1000s of $’s worth of damage to someone else’s property. Short term insurance for visitors can be difficult to arrange. Thanks to BBH, affordable 3rd party vehicle insurance is readily available from a BBH Hostel or from BBH online www.bbh.co.nz/vehicle-insurance. NB: This insurance is not available to NZ residents 28
$ 200,000,000 In the next 12 months, International Online Travel Agents (OTAs) are expected to take more than Two hundred Million dollars from New Zealand’s Visitor Industry. These large internet booking sites have minimal investment in NZ, contribute almost nothing positive to visitors’ “experiences” here, and commonly pay little or no NZ tax. NZ is blessed with a small (4.5 million) welcoming population, spectacularly beautiful landscapes and attractive and rewarding opportunities for visitors. The $200 million charged by OTAs represents an average of $50 per visitor that would be better committed to the NZ economy to off-set some of tourism’s environmental and infrastructural costs. For 30 years the BBH network has delighted travellers from around the world by providing specialised accommodation countrywide. Its original real-time, off-line, face-to-face-look, social medium networking gives travellers opportunities to get the most out of their travels, providing places to meet fellow travellers, encounter fresh ideas and philosophies and even life-changing experiences in super-convenient or remote and beautiful locations at reasonable, reliable prices. Sadly the intrusion of OTAs is fragmenting our network and is threatening the continued existence of BBH. In their own interest, OTAs create a sense that bookings are always essential and urgent with messages such as “two people are looking at this site” and “only 1 room of this type left”. The reality is that for much of the year in most places, advance bookings are just not necessary. A quick phone call will usually get you what you need at the last minute and may save on fees too. If you really HAVE to book, you can help NZ if you book directly with the operator or use a NZ booking engine such as BBH. Remember that details of many of the hostels listed in THIS guide can only be found on BBH or their own website. Make the most of your journey. Eric Foley 29

When cleaning and washing, take the water and wash well away from the water source. Because soaps and detergents are harmful to water-life, drain used water into the soil to allow it to be filtered. If you suspect the water may be contaminated, either boil it for at least 3 minutes, or filter it, or chemically treat it. TAKE CARE WITH FIRES
A cheap and convenient place to stay. Located in the centre of the village. Short walk to bus and train stops. Large day room with woodburner fire and full kitchen.

Adjacent to Avalanche Peak Track and close to many ski fields. No Resident Host. T.A walkers welcome.
Portable fuel stoves are less harmful to the environment and are more efficient than fires. If you do use a fire, keep it small, use only dead wood and make sure it is extinguished by dousing it with water and checking the ashes before leaving. CAMP CAREFULLY
