Top West Coast Hotel Reviews

Beachfront Hotel

Beachfront Hotel

8/10 Good
"Loved the location, friendly staff and the restaurant was great. Especially liked. The helpful and friendly attitude of the staff member when we had breakfast. As we’re traveling the South island we chose the cheapest room which was definitely value for money. Clean and had everything we needed. Even though it was roadside it didn’t seem noisey. I feel we should have paid for a Seaview room though and we would have enjoyed the stay more."
