Why choose BBH? Hotels, Motels, Hostels, Air B&Bs, plain B&Bs and couch surfs.

Homestays, Farmstays, Goodstays & Badstays.

Beds in Sheds & Bunks in Dumps.

They’re all online with plenty of booking sites urging you to “hurry, book now”. But what’s great and what’s fake? What’s cheap and nasty, and what’s the real deal?

DON’T PANIC BBH is here to save the day with a network especially created and managed to meet the needs of Free Independent Travellers, Latter Day Explorers and part-time Adventurers. Just look for the BBH brand to identify accommodation & information you can trust.

Exclusive BBH operators are all independent, but only those meeting BBH’s strict criteria are accepted into the network. All 160 meet their local body requirements including annual safety inspections.

Stable Predictable Prices No surprises. Published BBH prices are guaranteed. They are changed only twice a year. That means you can reliably budget in advance for an extended visit to NZ. A BBH Club Card makes budgeting even better.

Security All booking transactions are handled by BBH itself, and can be checked on your own personal BBH profile. Your Credit card details are NEVER made available to ANYONE.

Advocacy In the unlikely event of serious disagreement, BBH is able to serve as an intermediary between guests and operators if necessary. Our email and phone help lines are monitored every day of the year - though not 24 hours - so you’ll never be left waiting too long for a genuine response from a real person.

Community There’s an International travellers’ Contact adding a special community atmosphere theKilmore BBH network.

You BBHNZ Ltd,to 208 St, can enjoy being partNZ of it - even if Christchurch 8011, you’re on a quick flying visit to NZ, with little settle. It’s a big part of +64 3time 379to3014 what BBH is about. We’re here for you. admin@bbh.co.nz www.bbh.co.nz On behalf of the BBH team, Felicia,

Not all who wander lostBBH WAY BOOKINGS ~ are THE Not all those who wander are lost Many are just enjoying a rare opportunity to choose their own direction and their own pace, looking for the answer to “Life, The Universe and Everything” (according to The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, the answer’s 42...), or just smelling the roses.

NZ has all the potential for spontaneous travel made easier by the BBH Network.

For 30 years the BBH network has delighted travellers from around the world by providing specialised accommodation NZ-wide. Our original real-time, offline, FTfl (face-to-Facelook), social medium network gives travellers opportunities to get the most out of their travels, providing places to meet fellow travellers, encounter fresh ideas and philosophies and even lifechanging experiences in super-convenient or remote and beautiful locations. All at reasonable, reliable prices.

sense that bookings are always essential and urgent. It’s in their own interest to do so because their income is from the commissions they collect on every booking.

And they’re very, very good at it. It’s estimated that OTAs export $200,000,000 from New Zealand’s Visitor Industry every year. They contribute little of real value and often even less in NZ tax.

BBH can’t compete with OTAs advertising budgets, but we come out well ahead on service.

You can help us with your bookings.

For much of the year, and in most places, it’s easy enough to wander without the restriction of a detailed prebooked itinerary.

Book locally using BBH.co.nz booking pages, or book direct with your hostel of choice. All the contact details you need are right there on bbh.co.nz where phone numbers are hot linked to your mobile service if you have one, and also in the pages of this guide.

Sadly, Large International Online Travel Agents (OTAs) use their very considerable advertising budgets to create a

HOPEWELL

A BBH Success Story

E

ver since 1991 - long before the Internet and TripAdvisor et al, BBH has provided a unique, NZ-exclusive insight into hostel accommodation.

On one night in February, EVERY guest at every BBH hostel is asked for their opinion of EVERY NZ hostel they have stayed in, on a scale from 1 - 10 for total ENJOYMENT. For more than a decade, HOPEWELL BBH, a jewel set in the exquisite Marlborough Sounds, has topped the rating charts with scores from 98+ to a perfect and astonishing 100%. Like many BBH operators, Hopewell’s owner-operators have to love their location, lifestyle and their guests to achieve and sustain results like that. Hopewell has the attributes of an exclusive luxury resort without hype and hubris. It would be wonderful if Hopewell could be on everyone’s itinerary, but even if you’re unable to sample Hopewell’s perfection, we’re very confident that our unique and 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.

You’ll be happy when you do!

There’s more to BBH than beds and bookings Travel Insurance 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.

3RD PARTY

VEHICLE INSURANCE Third Party Vehicle Insurance can be tricky to arrange for overseas visitors.

BBH makes it a simple affordable purchase online or at any BBH. Unlike some other policies, a fixed excess of $500 applies - whatever the insured driver’s age.

The policy will cover another vehicle if you need to replace the ‘old’ one, and it even covers another person driving with your permission!

It’s easy, open and reliable. No hidden costs or conditions.

Just like BBH itself. :-) Go to: www.bbh.co.nz/vehicle-insurance for an instant quote and cover NB: This insurance is not available to NZ residents.

VEHICLE INSURANCE Third Party Vehicle Insurance can be tricky to arrange for overseas visitors.

BBH makes it a simple affordable purchase online or at any BBH. Unlike some other policies, a fixed excess of $500 applies - whatever the insured driver’s age.

The policy will cover another vehicle if you need to replace the ‘old’ one, and it even covers another person driving with your permission!

It’s easy, open and reliable. No hidden costs or conditions.

Just like BBH itself. :-) Go to: www.bbh.co.nz/vehicle-insurance for an instant quote and cover NB: This insurance is not available to NZ residents.
