close to the lake and town neat/tidy

sun roof in room can hear other guests

my earlier review stated that the proprietor was horrible and refused to let us stay. He unjustly said he saw us earlier in town, untrue, and turned us away even though we booked and paid for the room. horrible experience

everything g

A beautiful building with an interesting history. Nicely located right on the coastline, and a short, easy 5min walk to the restaurants. Our room had a palatial bathroom and access to a charming patio area. Very nice and knowledgeable owners.

Unique old hotel

Very easy to hear guests in neighbouring room. And an outdoor light came on and off on the roof and our room had a skylight window in the ceiling and I was awakened again and again from a light coming on and off from above which I had no influence over.

clean, comfortable, freindly

no laundry facilities

amazing owner that was unbelievably helpful going out of his way so I could continue my training for an upcoming Ironman.

such a long drive from Auckland!

The warm welcome from the Owners Jennifer and Justin - the history of the hotel and the original features - the layout of our little suite of rooms and the balcony overlooking the water, ideal for an early evening drink - the location of the hotel in relation to Mangonui Village - and the picnic our hosts prepared for us for our day exploring Cape Reinga.

Nothing comes to mind ......

Exceeded expectation, location amazing, clean, modern, staff are available and happy to help in anyway, couldn’t fault our stay! Loved the outdoor dining, the decor and size of room.
