Very welcoming and good attention to detail especially with regard to health and safety and emergency procedures. Our room was small with limited seating area although we had great access to a large lounge. The room was clean and comfortable with en suite bathroom. The bathroom perhaps could do with being updated but it was spotlessly clean and provided everything we needed. Breakfast was great lots of choice and freshly cooked food.
Absolutely brilliant and absolute beachfront. Don't believe the BS reviews saying places like Stopforths are 10/10. If you want to be on the beach this place is brilliant. Huge modern rooms, friendly and helpful staff too. Easy parking and NW Supermarket is across the road. Not sure how other properties in Hokitika rate so highly. We've stayed at most and nothing comes close to this place backed on location and price.
We stayed here in a 2 bdm with another couple for 3 nights whilst doing the West Coast Wilderness Trail and it was great! Worked well for the 4 of us, clean, roomy and nice to be able to prepare food etc in the kitchen and really helpful being able to use the laundry each day (for a fee) for our biking gear. Karen was lovely to deal with. We left our bikes at Wilderness Trail Shuttle premises each night as we had a car and that worked out well.
