Our room was a good size, clean and comfortable. We did have an issue with a nearby restaurant playing loud music. However, the staff at the hotel called the restaurant and asked them to turn the music down (which they did) and as our 2nd night was New Years Eve the Hotel staff also ensured that we could shift rooms to the other side of the hotel and away from the music which we really appreciated. Our rate included breakfast and again the waiting staff were very welcoming and the food was good. Overall, we were really impressed with the customer service.

The staff were extremely helpful and nice. Mel, a trainee customer service consultant, was incredibly welcoming. There is lots of parking near hotel rooms. There is a staircase to the second floor. Our room was very comfortable. We had a little balcony overlooking the main reception area and the mountains beyond. We did not eat or drink at the hotel but that area looking very well maintained and cosy. The hotel was in a great location. Everything within very easy walking distance.

We stayed here for one night on our travels around the south island. The hotel is really well located to the centre of the town with plentiful car parking. The staff were friendly and the accommodation comfortable and similar to the motel style of many hotels in New Zealand. Breakfast and dinner was included and was pleasant. The price is a little higher than we would pay for similar accommodation elsewhere but given the location was good value.

Clare

The staff was very friendly and helpful. They even made suggestions for their favorite restaurants in our next town we were visiting. They had everything available to us that you would need. A really nice large room with a fireplace. Games to enjoy. Also, to our surprise, they had a washer and dryer that was very reasonable. It was truly handy and helpful. We would highly recommend!

Ellen

The hotel is in an incredible location and the view from our room was amazing. The hotel had good facilities and the staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was comfortable, spacious and well presented with very nice toiletries. I wish that we were able to stay another day but we had such a tight schedule that this was not possible. I hope to return sometime soon.
