Kauri Lodge is a fairly typical motel, with spacious reasonably well equiped rooms. It is in a very good location adjacent to the main Kaitaia shopping street. The main feature to call out is that the person we dealt with could not have been more helpful - this makes a real dsifference and we would stay again.
Location and staff
Felt it was quite expensive for the facilities. Have stayed in far more modern and comfortable places for less money
Separate rooms . Kitchen. Bid bed is comfortable.
Small beds are too soft. No salt or oil in kitchen.
The accommodation people are really nice. The room we checked in was clean and tidy, also very convenient to accommodate a big family.
Parking if front of the unit, easy check in, spacy, well equipped, good shower.
Unpleasant smell of bed linens (probably from washing powder).
The Room was Clean. quiet and comfortable
All 3 studios were extremely spacious, with kitchenettes and lounging areas in all. Although older style, they were super clean and very comfortable.
Excellent value for money, great location on our grand tour. Close to town centre. The staff were very friendly, helpful and really needed nice.
Only stayed 1 day, night.Nice and quiet, owner very polite and asked how we settled in later.
Nil
Close to iSITE. Friendly and helpful staff, always with a smile on her face.
Pillows too flat for a good night's sleep.
Very clean freshly painted and the staff were very friendly
I am a very big man 6`4 160kg the shower and toilet areas where very small.
Very pleasant and exceptionally helpful staff.
It's one of those NZ motels built in the 70's when insulation was underutilised. Upgrades have been made in the bathroom and a heat exchanger has been retrofitted. The main problem was the lack of sound insulation and some noisy neighbours with some choice language made our stay less pleasant than we would have liked.
AC worked perfectly. Beds comfortable. Shower very hot.Milk provided.Parking outside the door
Careful with the hot shower, a slight touch and it can be seriously too hot.
