"Basic accommodation but comfortable and well located."

"Clean, spacious room with modern facilities. Helpful and friendly staff. 10min stroll to shops and restaurants. 8-10 mins drive from supermarket."

"Very good modern decor. Minor problems, no bed lighting, on in ceiling which was too bright. Lack of hoots in bath room. Otherwise very hood. "

"Our courtyard room was perfect for our 2 night stay and the hotel is situated across the road from the beachfront. The centre of Kaikoura where the main shops and restaurants are was just a bit too far for us to walk to but not a problem as plenty of parking available. Small onsite car park but parking available in street outside hotel if full."

"From the moment we arrived we were welcomed and felt at home. We had comfortable accommodation with a wonderful view of the mountains. I would highly recommend staying here. "

"A most enjoyable stay, no negative comments"

"New management. Extremely helpful and friendly. I did stay here in December 2025, but found it a much better experience overall this time around. Excellent location. Very good value for money. Would definitely book here again if/when visiting Kaikōura."

"Convenient. Clean. Quiet."

"Perfect location if you’re doing an early dolphin or albatross tour—literally right across the street, so you can just walk over in minutes. Super convenient and stress-free for early starts. Great choice if wildlife tours are your priority. "
