Kate

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The room my partner and I had was nice but there was hair all over the bathroom cabinet when we arrived and no soap or shampoo and conditioner - completely empty. The door wasn’t locked between adjoining rooms so my partner and I opened a door to which we thought was a cupboard, and it was two strangers sitting in the room. They obviously asked the staff to come and fix the issue and the staff continued to barge through the door no knocking or anything. Just walked through the door to try lock it. I would’ve felt really unsafe if I was alone. Later on we ask for soap at the counter and 15 mins later the manager comes down and says it’s filled, so it’s obvious he proceeded to walk through our room unannounced and us not knowing. We were waiting for him to give us the soap. Also when we arrived they were adamant that we hadn’t paid and had to find proof we had - barely any apology. Honestly it was terrible and I am seeking a full refund. Was unsafe to have that door unlocked and there’s no ifs ands or buts about it. Look forward to hearing from you and receiving details of the refund. Thank you

Paekakariki worth a stay

We find the food and hospitality at Finns great and have stayed there previously. Rooms are spacious - comfortable bed and a good sized spa bath.Proximity to the beach is perfect for a stroll or run. It’s a great place to stay when breaking up a long drive. If you’re a train lover the little village has a train museum. Sited near a railway line you will hear some goods trains in the night.

Lovely spot for a restful weekend.

Such a nice clean comfortable place to stay. I wondered if the close proximity to railway may be an issue, but I was not disturbed at all. The staff were all nice and friendly, and the food in the restaurant was good and wholesome despite a reduced menu due to ‘lockdown’. The beach is less than a two minute walk away for views of Kapiti Island, and the beautiful sandy coastline.

What an amazing place just 35 minutes from the South Island ferry terminal. Situated in a quaint seaside village. The room was large and clean and better than the rooms that many large hotels offer the managers were helpful and friendly. Highly recommended

Great Stay

Finns was a great place to stay would recommend its close to the beach and cafe's, railway and main highway Hosts were extremely friendly they have a bar and cafe underneath and you could not hear any noise from this at at anytime. Room was clean tidy and had coffee and microwave facilities, a great place to stay if your leaving WLG for north island trip or just want to stay out of WLG trains run regularly into Wellington
