Great one night stopover

We were in transit, relocating from one end of the South Island to the other and needed a one night stopover. We were travelling with a small puppy and were having difficulty finding somewhere dog friendly. Riverview was a great option, very comfortable and we appreciate the host allowing us to have a dog stay too. Shame we were passing through and only had 1 night

What a lovely home in a great location just five minutes in car from Hokitika Town. Very spacious home and it was lovely and warmwith the log burner and heat pump. Beds so comfy and warm, we had the best sleep! Hosts very communicative and friendly. Go do the Hokitika Gorge walk and the Tree Top walk . Definitely visit this beautiful part of the country , friendly people and lots to explore. Would most definitely stay at this property again. Thank you Linley and Tony. Mandy (61) and Dianna (88)
