Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2021 and had a wonderful relaxing family holiday. Unit faced the esplanade / seaside and included 2 balconies to watch for potential whale sightings - Apprently we had missed a pod of dolphins the day before right outside! Parking was inside an open garage on the G/F and close by. Apartment was fully self contained with full kitchen, Dining & Lounge and all appliances including washing machine, dryer & DishDrawer. 2 Bathrooms with Shower Domes over showers which helped to keep moisture to a minimum. LCD TVs in Lounge and master Bedroom. Can fully recommend the Encounter Cafe just down the road for breakfast - fast and tasty. Its part of the Dolphin Encounter Centre. Also right next door is the Mayfair Cinema originally built in 1934 and extensively rebuilt in 2020. A fantastic example of Art Deco architecture and there's an exhibition of the rebuild beautifully photographed by a famous local artist. Look for the amazing wooden beams supporting the roof!

New modern hotel with a mainly neutral colour scheme. Reasonable amount of parking on site, or plenty along the Esplanade. Rooms average size. We went as a group so we had no choice, many of us ended up in rooms with twin beds, they are very comfortable but when you share your bed with your spouse, this wasn't expected nor enjoyed. No electric blankets. It's the middle of winter. I did phone reception 3 times over a couple of issues but the calls were never answered. The rooms heat pump is good, though no heating in the corridor and reception is rather cool too. Tea and coffee making facilities and a small fridge. Glasses, but no wine glasses in the rooms. Good sized bathroom and good shower. They only provide one hard club chair, seating for anyone else there's a round squab or the bed. Most of the signs are in Maori, only one in our large group could understand a few words. The large group of Asians also staying had no idea of what anything meant. Excellent staff. Helpful and friendly. Uniforms a little casual for this level of hotel. Catering for large groups can often be a challenge, the food offered suited all tastes and was very good. Good cocktail menu. I don't drink much, but really enjoy an Aussie Shiraz, but they only stock NZ wines. Just meant I drank water. The hotel is sited down the south end of the Esplanade, so a bit of a walk to the township. Good, modern, clean, quiet 4.5 star hotel.

Greeted warmly by the manager who took time to enquire as to our travel to date and that of our future plans. Reception area was well stocked with information relating to the local area, but the manager was also quite willing to advise on any interests we had. Room was on the upper level which enabled us to have an awesome view of the Seaward Kaikouras. Stunning to wake up to, and to look at throughout the day. Particularly while snow-capped. Having a balcony on which to continue their admiration was a bonus. Studio room was large, inviting, and comfortable. Containing a large comfortable bed, chairs, and a table on which one could work on. Kitchenette was large and well stocked with both utensils and complimentary beverage (tea/coffee/drinking chocolate) sachets. Bathroom was large and contained an awesome shower over a spa tub, leaving one to have to make the agonizing choice between a heavenly high pressured hot lavation or a lengthy immersion amidst bubbles. Both are guaranteed to bring you into a state of tranquility. A profound value for money. A decision to overnight here on our way home (a mere two hours away) has already resulted in making bookings to return for an extended period.

Being on a road trip for 6 weeks in New Zealand, after a day’s drive, we arrived for a 2 night stay, ready to settle in and relax. Unfortunately, there was an error with our reservation - we booked 2 nights, but they had us for only 1 night and it was the busy Easter weekend. Our reservation was made 11 mos before and they immediately acknowledged their error and upgraded us to the only room left, a beachfront apartment! They were kind, courteous and definitely owned up to their error. The room was great, clean, wonderful location and best of all, a very comfortable bed and amazing recliners to sit and watch the ocean from our patio doors! Would highly recommend and was grateful for the wonderful service.

Great room, great lookout to the Kaikoura ranges and the beautiful foreshore. Less than a 10min walk to town and great eateries there to have a meal. If there is one criticism, it would be that a sign be placed on the doors for those upstairs to show some compassion for others and close their doors quietly. particularly late at nigh and early in the morning. Otherwise I would recommend this place.

The hotel is right by the lake, the conditions and facilities are wrong, and the service is good. My English is not good. The local guide I found Zhang Jiahao led the chartered car. It was very worry-free, the service was attentive, and the explanation was meticulous; the driving was smooth, highly recommended

There's more choice of accommodation in Kaikoura these days, with the recent opening of the Sudima hotel. Nevertheless, we opted for this small but beautiful old hotel instead, forsaking swanky newness for period charm and the personal touch. We were not disappointed. We chose a Historic Waterfront Room for our stay - and we loved it. Sometimes, rooms in older hotels like this have compromises, because they were never built to have their own bathrooms, for example. Not so here. Our lovely spacious room had an equally spacious bathroom, all beautifully and tastefully decorated with stylish quality materials. Although the weather wasn't quite warm enough to make the most our balcony, we could still enjoy the sea view from our amazingly comfortable bed. The downstairs bar was a relaxing and friendly place to while away a little time in the afternoon over a drink. Erin, our cheerful and vivacious host, was very helpful with suggestions for dining. We were grateful also to owner Jen, who worked around our changing arrangements when Covid interfered with our original holiday dates.
