Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was wonderful! The location is amazing, right on the beach with easy access to restaurants. The rooms were clean, functional, and spacious, allowing me to enjoy the sound of the waves. The staff was incredibly helpful and friendly, making my stay even more enjoyable. However, the dining experience had some ups and downs. Overall, a great value for a relaxing getaway.
The hotel offers stunning sea views in an excellent location. The spacious and modern studio rooms provided everything needed for a comfortable stay. The friendly service enhances the experience, though some focus on large groups was noted. Overall, a great stay with a few minor drawbacks.
The hotel offers stunning views of the sea and is conveniently located near the beach and town center. The rooms provide a unique experience with a glass wall facing the sea, although they lack soundproofing and direct access from the street. The service is a mix of abrupt and welcoming attitudes. Dining options are excellent but pricey, while the location allows for an unforgettable seaside experience despite some noise disturbances. Overall, a memorable stay with some room for improvement.
My stay at the hotel was overall pleasant. The rooms were comfortable, but the heater made some weird noises which affected my sleep. However, the room was large and modern, providing all the necessary amenities for a cozy stay. The option to choose between a roadside or beachfront room was a nice touch, though I wished there was a couch instead of two small chairs.
The hotel is in a prime location, offering stunning sunsets from the balcony and close proximity to the heart of Hokitika with various dining options. The rooms feel very modern but come at a higher price compared to other places we've stayed at during our travels. The service was prompt and friendly, though some discrepancies in dining experiences were noted. The overall value for money was good.
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel, which offers a convenient location for exploring the area and comfortable rooms. The service was a bit under pressure due to a large group, but the ocean view compensated for it. The dining experience had its ups and downs, and the hotel facilities were satisfactory.
The hotel had very limited facilities in the dated rooms at the back facing a noisy thoroughfare. However, the service was amazing and the staff were helpful and friendly. The location was stunning right on the beach and convenient to shops and restaurants. The dining experience was adequate but could use improvements.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were not ideal, with a family king and a single bed pushed in a corner, but they were clean and tidy, providing a warm retreat. The location, overlooking the sea, was fantastic, placing us in a prime spot in the city center. The service was great, though they were initially too busy to accommodate more guests, they turned things around with their friendly and helpful attitude. However, the dining experience fell short with a large tour group and limited options, but the meal itself was delicious. Overall, a decent stay with room for improvement.
I truly enjoyed my stay at this hotel! The rooms in the old part were perfect in size, really clean, and didn't get too hot; however, the small bed was a bit of a downside. The service was exceptional, with staff who moved us to a beautiful room on the beachfront, were welcoming, helpful, and efficient, though it's unfortunate they did not allow for people who booked and paid for accommodation. The location is phenomenal, right by the beach, in the town center, and only a short walk to everything. The dining experience, although quite up to the standard of other hotels we've stayed at, was excellent with a buffet breakfast and a good choice to please everyone. The hotel facilities were top-notch, offering everything one would need for a comfortable stay. Overall, a great value for money!
