Eden Christian Hostel 9 Lovelock Avenue, Mount Eden, Auckland 1024

Welcome to Eden Christian Hostel (ECH), a premier establishment and point of interest located at 9 Lovelock Avenue in Auckland, New Zealand. Our hostel is specifically designed to provide accommodation for full-time first-year tertiary students who are embarking on their journey away from family for the first time and coming to Auckland city to pursue their studies. While we primarily cater to first-year students, we also consider second-year students who wish to make ECH their home for the year.

At Eden Christian Hostel, our main focus is on connecting students to Jesus Christ, fostering strong relationships among students, and helping them integrate into a new church fellowship in Auckland. We strive to create a safe and supportive environment where students can thrive academically, develop a sense of responsibility for themselves, and prepare for independent living in the following years.

One of the unique features of our hostel is the provision of cooked dinners for students from Monday to Friday during the University of Auckland semester. In addition, we ensure that all meals are provided for the rest of the week, ensuring that our students are well-nourished and taken care of.

But don't just take our word for it! Here's what some of our past students have to say about their experience at Eden Christian Hostel:

"Banter was great, community was amazing Kevin/10. Wow." - A testament to the vibrant and friendly atmosphere that our students enjoy.

"One of the best experiences of my life. Fantastic facilities, an amazing support system and community, and staffed by two of the most loving Christians I have ever had the good fortune to meet. The friends and experiences I gained here are ones I pray never to forget. I strongly recommend this to any Christians who wish to study full-time in Auckland." - A heartfelt endorsement of the supportive community and spiritual growth opportunities provided at ECH.

"A great transitional home. You won't want to leave, great atmosphere with like-minded uni students." - Highlighting the sense of belonging and camaraderie fostered among our students.

"Huge fan of the work they put in for the students. The many signs, the great food, and that 'the couch' made it for me." - A nod to the attention to detail and dedication shown by our staff in creating a comfortable and enjoyable living environment.

We take pride in the positive feedback we receive from our students, and we are committed to maintaining the high standards that have made Eden Christian Hostel a sought-after accommodation option for Christian students studying in Auckland.
