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.
Learn more about our review moderation.

Lower Hutt, Wellington, New Zealand

This hotel is located just as you enter Hokitika. Decent location and a short walk to town centre. Rooms comfortable and clean but certainly not new or modern. Hosts were a little strange. When checking in the lady says to me "That comes to $339." Then mutters under her breath "Not sure how that works, but anyway". Insinuating it was too cheap and we got some amazing deal? An interesting way to speak to a new guest. Also had issues with the host overcharging for the laundry (room says $4 but she charged $5. Principle not the money) she also removed our washing from the laundry and put it in the dryer without asking or checking if it could all be tumble dried. Tried to act as though she was helping but really she just had her own washing to do. Frankly the guest laundry should not be the same laundry that the hosts are using to do their washing. Other issues with hotel - piles of dog poo all through the trampoline and mini golf area and a 6am train every morning that was very loud. Our stay was OK but the hosts could perhaps remember they are hosts and customer service comes first.

We only stayed here for 1 night while passing through Hokitika so we didn't actually get to spend much time in the motel. It was in a good location and well equipped, the owners were also helpful proving advice on things to do. Good for a short stay.

Booked in and asked for the two bedroom unit (we prefer more space when it is cost effective). Overall size of the room was excellent and it had everything we needed. It appeared to be their son on reception when we arrived, he was pleasant enough. It was clean, tidy and functional so did the trick for the one night perfectly.

Only downside was having to park a little away from right the unit but that's nothing major.

Would be happy to stay again if we were travelling through.

We are couple from Wellington passing through Hokitika. This was our second visit to this motel. Friendly reception gave us the last room. It exceeded our expectations. Numbet one for us, was no air freshener lingering, number two an up to date bathroom with a new modern toilet, the only one we came across in a week of visiting motels in the South Island.
Ask for Unit one, it has two bedrooms, lounge, and kitchen. Fresh and very clean, highly recommended.

We had a king size bed & spa bath When we arrived we waited 10 mins for the lady to answer at reception & i had checked to see if she was cleaning & wasnt.The shower didnt work over the bath & my husband is 76 years old & found it very hard to get in & out of the bath., I went over to tell the lady but no one answered. The next morning we left at 9,00am but no one around, so when we came back at 1.30pm i spoke to the Lady she came & had a look then went away & made a phone call, came back said it wouldnt be fixed till monday. We paid $240.00 for 2days. There were only 4 rooms being used im sure we could of used the shower nextdoor. Also only half a roll of toilet people for 2 people for 2 days & no toilet brush.

Stayed one night, had room 9 and it was fine. The new(ish) owners were both very friendly and accommodating, no complaints. No issues with the room either, very quiet and clean and worth what I paid for it. Will definitely stay here again next time I am in Hokitika

Well priced. We stayed 4 nights in a twin room unit with cooking facilities and a lovely spa bath, plus cooking facility. Bed comfortable and a solid range of TV programs.

Recommend to all as good value for money, nice location too, close to River bridge and main street entrance

We stayed one night, the man in the office was pleasant and welcoming, the unit was clean and looked to be recently repainted, it was a good size. The man asked if we'd been to Hokitika before, we hadn't, he recommended driving to Hokitika Gorge and Lake Kaniere which we did, well worth it. Also said if we wanted a simple, good meal to try the pub 'over the back', the Pioneer, a good choice. Handy to the main shopping street, we'd be happy to go back again.

Had all the basics but getting a little tried. The couch was past its used by date ie no stuffing! And the remainder of the furniture needs renewing. The wifi was rubbish. The good points are: it had what you needed to cook a basic meal, was clean and tidy (except for stain on couch), warm and tidy and sky TV was a bonus. Parking and location was great. Lady at office (not owner) was nice.

We are doing a South Island tour. Rolled into town late on a Friday, Queen Studio was just what we needed. Clean, roomy, comfy bed and free wifi and sky tv. Walking distance to town centre and the beach
