10/10 Excellent
"This is by far one of the best hotels we’ve stayed in, in NZ and the world.. It’s clean, very comfortable and quirky which we love. The staff are so friendly and helpful, shout out to Cathy and the younger lady with dark hair (apologies that I can’t remember her name). The continental breakfast is simple but has something for everyone. The local Whitestone cheeses were excellent. It certainly filled us up. I don’t think we’ll be back to NZ (due to distance) but if we did, we’d definitely stay here again. Needless to say, we’d recommend this hotel 100%, don’t hesitate to book it!! "
