A great hotel in a great location. It was not cheap per night, room was large, and very comfortable, especially the bed but sadly not on the harbour side. It was just perfect as we had been travelling for a few days, and to discover the one bedroom apartment type room had a washing machine and dryer, a full kitchen with a full fridge, dish draw dishwasher, it was a pleasant surprise. The only fault was the shower was over a spa bath, so not easy to get in and out of. The housekeeping people were so lovely and very, very helpful, however the reception staff were not so helpful, given they have front of house roles they need to up their game to be considerably more friendly and helpful.

The shower needs to be replaced immediately it’s very old school. A big step to get in with no safety rail for support and the lever to change the water was stuck. The TV was tiny and looked silly on a huge wall. The decor was dated - I expected better for the price I paid.

In a word, meh. Clean, sure, and lovely pool, great location, but you pay top dollar here and get nothing special for your money. They should take a few bucks and a couple of days, watch Motel Makeover and try to find some inspiration to make this place special. The front desk staff made themselves weirdly scarce and the lobby smells like ciggies and disinfectant… what a first impression. If they’re aiming for apathetic as to whether guests have a good time or stay again, they’ve hit that mark. Perplexing in the current climate-door must be wide open for a competitor. Stay down the road at Tatapouri Bay instead for WOW factor.

We stayed here for two nights while on a roadtrip in late June. We have stayed here previously. It is not a cheap place to stay but the rooms are roomy and nice. We were in room 113 on the ground floor, a one bedroom Premium suite. We had a separate bedroom, a large bathroom, a full kitchen (including a full sized oven, full sized fridge/freezer, and a dish drawer) and a large dining room/lounge. There are large windows/glass sliding doors overlooking the lawn and the river/port. Lots of birdlife flying around the lawns and gardens. Would I stay here again? Possibly. I was disappointed that our bedroom didn’t have a tv in it, though you could see the fixings where one had been. I’d probably look to get a deal rather than pay full price. Compared to other accommodation we stayed in during our road trip, it was pretty expensive. Hence my overall rating of "average".…

We spent 2 nights here. Won't return. The rate for the room was more expensive than the Hilton in Taupo. Any other comparison to the Hilton ends at this point. The room was on the Port Side of the building and faced South. So no sun in the room at all, The port runs 24*7 so no possibility of sleeping with doors or windows open as the port was loading logs all night. Dishwasher and bathroom extractor fan did not work. Service was extremely poor. We politely asked if there were better rooms available, we were told - :"If you had wanted a better room, you should have paid more" If they had bother to offer us a better room I probably would have paid more - But the offer was never made. Someone walked into the building with muddy boots, A sign was placed at the door "Please remove your muddy boots" but the mud stains on the carpet were still there 2 days later when we left. The only upside is there is a fantastic boardwalk straight in front of the hotel that loops all along the bay waterfront. Shame that no one in the hotel told us about it. Very expensive, slack service, poor quality rooms, old furniture. Not returning…
