We Say, You Say: Covid-19 forces hostels to slash prices
Hi Northland,
Backpackers around the country have cut their prices to survive a fall in bookings due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
Occupancy has averaged around 32 per cent between June to September this year compared to previous years. Hone Heke Lodge in Kerikeri has some seasonal workers booked in but capacity is still half of what it usually would be.
What else do you think will bring travellers to Northland?
