This hotel had to be the most disappointing of all our stays in New Zealand. When we booked it and viewed the photos we were pleased with what we had booked especially being part of a pub and staying over New Year. The room was very basic, a bit depressing, no shampoo or shower soap, just a bar of soap and a flannel, so for the price we paid, was disappointing. The pub closed at 8 oclock each night and didn't even make an exception for New year's eve. There was a small casino, betting machines in the bar and a restaurant, so I suppose they didn't need to open the bar late. We had a full breakfast one morning which wasn't cheap and included salad. Who put's salad on a fry up!! Whilst it was central and a short walk from other restaurants, bars and shops, we regretted booking it.
