This is the fourth time we have stayed here and it will always be our first stay when we visit the South Island. It seems everything is brand new it is spotlessly clean and everything is perfect. Underfloor heating in the bathroom kind of states the excellence of this place.

This is the fourth time we have stayed here and will always be our first choice when we start a holiday in the South Island. So convenient as you enter Kaikoura and it is extremely well laid out inside and out. Seems to be brand new every time we come in it is so clean and appointments so good.

No prior notification that the laundry was out of action, which was disappointing as was one of the reasons we booked this hotel. Also the kitchenette consists of fridge, kettle, microwave which limits options for eating in but still possible. Cot bed was provided on request at reception, with self-assembly and a request for self-disassembly at the end of the stay. Overall it did the job.

Room needed some maintenance in bathroom. May have been a leak? Road was quite noisy in morning and we couldnt close bathroom window as too high to limit noise. Probably would have been quieter if we could have. Mixed review for staff as had two bookings. Fine and friendly 2nd time. Week prior booking cancelled with no contact via app or phone. Pay at property but payment put through prior. I was not aware this would happen, but contact before cancelling would have been great - especially as we advised our arrival time 2 days prior.

The only disappointing aspect of this booking was Expedia. We booked the room at the tariff quoted on Expedias site only to learn later when checking our bank statement they charged $12.00 more than the advertised price. Not Good
