The room was well set out, location was perfect for town. Very quiet which was even better.
Close to water and the strand in tauranga

Location and cleanliness
Shower wasn't that great water pressure wise
We always love staying here.Wonderful staffRooms are immaculately cleanSuper comfy bedsFabulous viewWhy would you stay anywhere else!
Not one thing
Great location - close to everything. Huge room with great facilities & awesome view.
Amazing views with floor to ceiling windows .Super, comfortable and spacious room. Great stay
The lady at reception was very nice & the room was stunning over looked the lake
Quiet location with scenic view and little outdoor area
Very uncomfortable hard chairs , couldn’t relax at all
Awesome staff, room and view!
Michelle at the front counter was outstanding. Check in was seamless. Our room was upgraded! She gave great advice on restaurants and points of interest to see (including knowing which sites were temporarily closed due to water damage). Parking was right outside our room. Thank you.
Unfortunately washer and dryer on site were inoperable.
Lovely owners/staff who made sure we were well looked after. Milk and complementary coffee/tea etc items in the apartment. Beautiful location overlooking the water. Bit midgey of an evening but very manageable with stuff. Highly recommended. Parking in front of property too.
Location was good for the town centre shopping and the waterfront area. The room had a kitchenette, which was useful.
There was only a table and chairs, no sofa.
The view amazing, loved that there was moisturiser available as-well as your normal shower products which smelled great, the mini bar snacks were delicious and refilled each day! Room was easy to find, room was comfy and clean, great stay! TV had heaps of channels, bed was comfy with extra blankets in the cupboard, loved that there was a full length mirror and the balcony view was beautiful
The shower pressure wasn’t great but not a biggie. Everything else made up for it
So close to town, we’re able to walk 5 mins and be right in the middle of town with plenty of choice for restaurants. Not to mention the brilliant waterfront playground. Room was a great size, loved that there was lots of space for eating breakfast in the room.
Nothing I can think of
Location .. quiet but close enough to walk to the town & bars etc. Easy access to buses. Clean and comfortable room.
Could do with an additional mirror somewhere
Best stay in New Zealand, excellent staff, excellent location, clean and good facilities
Friendly staff and clean room. Great position.
