Cost of living in New Zealand
A modern inhabitant of a metropolis dreams of resting in the bosom of nature. In search of gorgeous landscapes, he is ready to travel half the world. From this point of view, Australia's neighbor is one of the most attractive countries. The cost of living in New Zealand is much lower, but geysers, mountains and lakes are found almost at every turn..
The second direction of recreation in this country is extreme tourism, almost all of its types are presented here, from jumping upside down and ending with skiing down the mountain in a transparent ball. Local hotels take into account the interests of these particular groups of vacationers.
What a tourist should remember
A traveler who has bought a ticket to New Zealand should also think about where to stay. This country has a classification of hotels from 1 * (acceptable) to 5 * (exclusive). To the surprise of tourists, the price does not speak of quality, and a room for $ 150 may be several times better than another one that costs three times as much..
First, when choosing a hotel in the resorts of New Zealand, you need to focus not only on the cost, but also on the reviews of those who lived in it. There are plenty to choose from:
- traditional hotels;
- guest houses;
- motels that are in no way inferior to hotels;
- farms that introduce the seamy side of rural life;
- hostels.
The second point is that in large tourist centers, for example, Queenstown, there are many hotels, the guest has a choice of both prices and quality. Business centers such as Auckland or Wellington have significantly fewer hotels. But on the other hand, rooms are cheaper on weekends than on weekdays..
At the center of tourist events
Queenstown becomes a Mecca for tourists arriving in New Zealand, where you can endlessly admire the ocean landscapes, go on a picnic at the Mangold Grape Farm or test yourself in all kinds of extreme entertainment..
4 * apartments with ocean views can be found in the region of $ 150-300. If you take your time and study the sites, you can find a good accommodation option in a similar apartment, but for $ 99. Firstly, the amount is beautiful, and secondly, it is much lower than the average prices in the city..
If you try, you can find a 5 * hotel from the famous Hilton chain for $ 150. The comfort and service in it will be much higher than in an apartment, and for the same price. And the funniest price in a hostel is $ 21, however, a tourist for this money only gets a bed in an 8-bed room, and both men and women can be accommodated.
