Really nice room - clean and comfortable. Very convenient location just on the edge of the main strip of shops and close to the Whale watch meet point. Pleasant balcony to room as well: a real bonus!

Excellent location, spotless & comfy!

We were thrilled to have a quiet room in the back with beautiful views and peaceful, quiet surroundings. So many thoughtful touches, like ear plugs, a fully equipped kitchen, (didn’t do any cooking, with so many excellent places to eat within walking distance), heat lamps in the bathroom and a wonderful shower, and a smart TV to watch Netflix. The balcony was a bonus, even saw some Keas, large NZ parrots flying in the field. The beds were comfy, there was a king sized bed and a separate bedroom with twin beds. The staff was friendly and helpful and we will definitely be back!

Convenient and comfortable

Convenient motel on edge of Kaikoura with easy access to restaurants & walks. Motel has been recently refurshed and the room & bathroom, which had a much appreciated spa bath, were spotless. Self laundry facilities excellent. No breakfast available but rooms had small kitchenettes with microwave, hob, fridge & utensils. As with most hotels/motels it is on a busy main road, but traffic was quiet during the night & ear plugs provide!

Clean, no frills, directly off Main Street, oddly quiet ;except for cleaning crew yelling at each other using voice and walk-in talkies).

Clean motel within walking distance to various dining options. Room is very clean with a small fridge, kitchenette and basic utensils. Parking is a bit challenging. We did not use any of their services but the staff is polite and checking in is fast.

1 night stay. Booked delux king studio. We were put in an accessable unit. Would have appreciated being asked first. It was fully booked, do we didn't question it. Maybe it should be checked.

Perfect location in Kaikoura

This was a super-nice really well-run family-owned motel. I had a beautiful second-floor suite with Eve I needed, kitchen-wise and everything else-wise. Location was fabulous. I was on foot (came by train) so 12-minute walk from train station (which is adjacent to departure point for Whale Watching Kaikōura). Close to the major supermarket on the north edge of time and ditto for downtown. 15-minute walk to Dolphin Encounter meeting spot.
