We stayed here for one night, beautiful little place. Desk staff was very friendly allowing us to check in early, easy parking right in front of the cabin. Room was clean and bed was comfortable. Complimentary tea and coffee in the room. Staff at the desk helped us find an “off the beaten path” glow worm dell which was so kind of them. Few minutes walk to the beach!

This was one of our favorite stays in New Zealand. The setting was great - right across from the (amazing and free) Glowworm Dell and walking distance to town. Also beach convenient. Hokitika was a great little town and the kind host had movies you could borrow, which was nice in the evening.

Nice quiet location which has direct access to the beach. It is very close to the Glowworm Dell walkway too. It is farther away from the downtown area but not too bad as the town is not very big.
