Sudima Kaikoura

10/10 Excellent

"This was such a nice hotel, I wish we could have stayed longer. They had included such nice amenities like shower bombs and custom pillows (I used the shower bomb but just a regular pillow, which was still very nice!) the staff was super friendly too!"

Bella Vista Motel Kaikoura

Mondello Kaikoura

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent apartment, very clean, quiet well equipped , strong shower pressure and an amazing view of the mountains!"

Kaikoura Gateway Motor Lodge

8/10 Good

"Very friendly staff, we felt very welcomed & appreciated being able to drop our luggage off earlier than check in. They had very thoughtfully considered that my travelling companion & I may prefer to be in rooms close to each other & so booked us into rooms a stones throw from each other with one room being a free upgrade because of this. Thank you! The rooms were clean, beds comfortable with more than adequate seating, table and kitchenette facilities. There is traffic noise but situated on a main road only to be expected. Our stay was during October, the weather was wet and cold and even though we were for the most part comfortable temperature wise, we would not book to stay there during the colder months as, based on the rooms we had, do not feel the heating would be adequate plus there are no electric blankets. We feel the somewhat steep walk to the Motor Lodge should be mentioned on the sites that advertise this property; we arrived on foot, having travelled on the Coastal Pacific, & even though by chance we read mention of it when we did a Google maps search to get directions & are still mobile enough in our late 60's for it to be well manageable, we feel that for some it would be an important aspect to consider when booking. We were surprised that there was no information in our rooms in respect of things such as safety evacuation process, how to operate the tv/sky box etc. Overall, yes we can recommend it, but just bear in mind the few points mentioned."

"Stayed in cabin with bathroom. Was very good. Nice and warm and lots of heating."
