Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

- Donald Munroe EHamburg, NY92 contributionsVisiting the site of this ghost town that once was the largest coal mine in New Zealand was an amazing experience. Very little remains of the settlement and mine, or of its famous 'incline" which took the coal about 2,000 feet down the steep slope (think roller coaster) to the plains below for shipment to Westport. But the excellent interpretive displays bring the scenes to life. I also recommend reading the two novels by Jenny Pattrick (The Denniston Rose and the sequel Heart of Coal) to get an even deeper insight into the community and its remarkable inhabitants.Written 13 November 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
