Either you need private rooms, or if you are in bulk backpacker type bunk rooms then you need to hire lockers during the day.

TinTango, you may need to update the list page 1.

Have tried to talk Mystix into this too.

Anyway I am assuming that people need to book their own rooms?

Thanks Highlander, first page updated.

I've just checked the travelbug website, per night:
4 bed share is $27 per person
6 bed share is $26 per person
single room $62

I've already payed for my own room, and am not keen on sharing as I like my creature comforts/privacy.
But if anyone's interested in the bed shares, you could post in this thread that you're interested in forming a group, and depending on numbers, could possibly book the room together.

I agree with Highlander, it would probably be best if people book themselves, or find someone from their group to book for them, as you'll need photo ID to check in.

Photo ID?

So who out of the list is not booked yet?

I need to keep my costs down if I am to go, so I need at least one other person to book a room with.
I don't know how people feel about mixed rooms?

Emma/RainbowMoon dust is going to book soon as well.

There may still be rooms for six?

A room for four only has four bunks. And there are fire regs, security getting back in at night, etc.

But yeah, how do people feel about mixed sex rooms, or do they feel like single sex rooms?

I remember last year some of the Auckland crowed had too many people in a room 8DDDD;; Like, two people shared a bed and then they split the price less xD.

Who are the six? And how many nights.

But small problem, I have booked the last two bunk room, there are only superior double rooms left!

Though there are still many other backpackers presumably.

When I say I have one bunk spare it is in a two bunk room. Just me and one other lucky person.

Not sure if there are still superior doubles left, though they cost more.

But there are at least 6 other backpackers hostels around Central Wellington, although non as close to the venue. (Just Google.).

Post By RainbowMoonDust. 24/02/10, 11:19 am

I would like to share a room with someone although if it's only one other person I'd prefer them to be female. If mixed rooms are more than 2 people then I don't mind sharing with both guys and girls. Smile If there are only bunk beds however then I need to have a top bunk as I'm claustrophobic and can't handle sleeping in a bottom bunk. (They freak me out too much), hopefully this won't be too much of a problem.

I stayed at this place with Lennon and Shelly last year, it's pretty good and really close to Geddon, everything else like town etc is walking distance too. nodnod

Just checked travelbug's link for Downtown backpackers, all the 4bed rooms are booked.
The 6 bed shares are booked on the friday but free every other day. $26
Single rooms are available at $62 a night.
But bunks and standard doubles are all full too.
