We began our month-long New Zealand trip by visiting Paihia, spending three nights in this lovely hotel. The staff was friendly, attentive and helpful (with directions, internet access questions, extra blankets, etc.). The hotel was in a quiet area within easy walking distance to the center of town. We enjoyed the breakfast buffet, with its varied and tasty options. The... More

For a reasonable price and in a good location this hotel is great as it is outside the main street so has some quietness to the place. We had organised a couple of tour trips and were picked up at the hotel which was helpful. For a clean room with a decent bed this place was a good relaxed hotel... More

We stayed here for two nights outside the tourist season and found the hotel clean and comfortable and in a quiet location within walking distance from Paihia's shops. The staff were helpful and friendly.

We stayed here in February 2013. The hotel room was great, clean, comfortable and reasonable size. Staff were friendly and helpful. Wi fi, internet was not free. We took a few coach trips from this town, i.e. Cape Reinga excursion, '90 mile' beach and the bay of islands in the North Island of New Zealand. The scenery was spectacular and... More

We stayed 2 nights here and in general were happy, the rooms were clean and tidy and the location was good, with walking distance into town. The pool area was small but lovely and enjoyed a nice swim the first day as the hotel was very quiet although the next day it was overrun with children and you apparently had... More

We stayed 3 nights so that we had time see the area we had not visited for 40 years after attending a wedding on our second day. We found the rooms large and comfortable; more than we expected for what we paid. The short walk to the coast and the shops was good - not far at all. We could... More

I was impressed when I walked into my room upon arrival. The staff were friendly and the room was clean and well appointed. However the next day I was less than impressed. I read the card that was in my room. It stated that if I placed my towel/s in the shower they would be replaced and the bed would... More

Dear Nicole The title to your comments "Inconsistent" was totally fair and, cosistency is a daily challenge that we work hard on to achieve especially with temporary staff hired in during the peak season. That is not passing the blame rather it indicates that our checking processes are not working consistently and I have attended to that, so thank you... More

We booked this hotel while backpacking as it was actually cheaper than a double room in a hostel. The location was a ten minute walk from the seafront which was fine. The room was very big with a double bed and a single bed. There was a fridge and tea/coffee facilities in the room. We used the guest laundry which... More

Dear Ruth Thanks for staying with us and for taking time to make a commentary on Tripadvisor. Too often satisfied guests don't bother with reviews and therefore potential guests don't have the benefit of those experiences when selecting a property to stay at. So thanks Ruth, we hope you have encouraged others to do likewise. Incidently, the drawing of sheers... More
