Trinity Wharf Tauranga

Trinity Wharf Tauranga

8/10 Good
"We stayed 4 nights during AIMS games. Clean, modern hotel. The bed was so comfortable, the floor heating in bathroom was amazing ! Good room service. The swimming pool is small and not heated so you canโ€™t use it unless itโ€™s summer. Not smart TV in room, you canโ€™t watch or stream. Parking is tight when itโ€™s crowded. The shower was not nice. Good pressure but not much water coming out. Overall we had a good stay."
