- Grace (8/5): All good 😊 - the bed and room was very comfortable. i paid more money because there was a pool and my sister really wanted a swim.
the woman in reception made us feel really bad as we had travelled up north to famous fish and chip restaurant and stop at a couple of places for photos so we were late arriving at hotel. she was complaining about us using the pool around 10 pm we were having a pool party just a quiet swim.
we just didn’t appreciate her attitude.
the instructions to the pool was not marked good and getting into the pool there was no good instructions how to open the gate.
better reception manners please you don’t know what your guest have gone through. we had come from Canada for our mums funeral and catching a day with our brother sightseeing before we left back to Canada

- Angela (10/5): The staff were friendly, the restaurant was amazing and the food was great. I would definitely come back to eat and stay - Although the property is a bit dated it is very quaint and comfortable (so don’t let the looks deceive you). The floors upstairs were a little noisey (I was here for work and doing odd shifts so needed to get sleep when I could) but the beds and pillows were so comfortable that the noise disappeared once I tucked myself in.

The bed was very comfortable, and the room was very clean. I enjoy soaking in the bath tub in the night after a long drive. Would not change anything satisfy with overall stay.
- Paul (9/5): Convenient location, great value for your dollar! - My wife and I used the executive suite - this felt way roomier and more comfortable than what I had had at a similar price from other hotel chains. We had an excellent view (when not blocked by bad weather), and plenty of options of movies/TV shows to stream when we called it a night. The breakfast was abundant, filling and delicious. The parking up front was a bit cozy, especially when occupied by larger vehicles. There is a second parking area, but I didn't try it.

- Terry (10/5): -
- JOHN A (10/5): - Great staff and rooms.
- Jean-Noel (7/5): Une équipe au top, un hôtel qui a besoin d’un remodel. - L’accueil et les personnels étaient top. La literie, et les chambres année 80’.
- Maria (8/5): - Friendly staff
Clean rooms
- Ace (7/5): - Location convenient access to Whangarei city centre.
- David (8/5): - The property has a restaurant, very large for its guest capacity, that punches well above its weight. There is some fine cooking going on here, enough to make it a destination in its own right. Outside seating on a large patio makes it all the more attractive in summer. Most rooms (possible all) have attractive views over the pool, the harbour and the countryside beyond
- Normand (10/5): - La proprio a été d’une gentillesse très bien
- louisa (10/5): Just what I needed! - Staff were professional, accommodating with facility usage, gym, spa and pool. Beautifully landscaped tropical garden surrounds with an amazing gentle waterfall feature alongside some tastefully crafted stairs leading down into dense native bush. Also kn the manicured lawns with seating, a peek overlooking a harbour in the distance. Therapeutic and such good value for money! Facilities for dining and bar all available. A friend has a long term disability, uses a crutch and I assumed there’d be a lift. Something to consider if you aren’t very mobile, otherwise perfect getaway stay.
