Room was ok, bed super comfy. We were given fresh towels but toilet wasn't cleaned, bed wasn't made and we had to ask for toilet paper. A lovely newly refurbished bathroom but nowhere to hang your toilet bag. Only 2 coat hangers in the wardrobe. Reception staff were lovely.

Room 279 faces onto the main road which was busy and noisy with traffic and people. There is nowhere to sit in the room and one dilapidated seat on a balcony just big enough to hold two. The rest of the hotel might be in better condition but the annex where the standard rooms are is tired and in need of a refurbishment. The breakfast was quite good

Andy, not sure if the owner or manager or both but is a great host. The place is right on the ocean with great views and a nice restaurant next door where we had dinner. Very hospitable and helped us out with changing travel plans.

Hotel room was clean, comfortable and spacious. And the view out the window was quite nice. The hotel building is quite dated, feels like going back in time. Staff were friendly. Parking was easy and they let us leave our car an extra night while we went on a Milford Sound overnight cruise. Close to shops, food and lake. Hotel breakfast was pretty good but finishes at 9am.

Updated older property. We rented one of their larger rooms and were surprised that our room did not have AC however other rooms in the hotel did have AC. Shower was nice and had a large jet tub however we did not have time to use it. The breakfasts that we had at the hotel were fine with plenty to eat at buffet style breakfast.
