The staff were so lovely and kind! The room was a good size for us. Everything we needed. Note that it did say that there was an oven but we were told that there wasn’t in the 2 bedroom room with spa. Glad we checked before hand. The spa was clean and the jets worked well.

I would recommend this hotel for anyone staying in Kaikoura. The hotel is close to the bars/restaurants (around a 5 minute walk). We were upgraded to the Spa bathroom and were impressed with the size of our room and the views that accompanied it. It had all of the amenities we required and we had a comfortable nights sleep. Each room has a designated car parking space, and we were directed to our space by a friendly member of staff.
