Russell City Holidays from NZ$2,373

Clean room! Friendly staff!

The place is great just a little distant from shops. Not walking diatance

I selected this place for the free breakfast amenities, since traveling breakfast can be an expensive expense. I love the hot and cold options for breakfast. Of course downtown hotels have their cons, due to parking and having to pay. First time using Valet, and it was worth it. The only thing that was not addressed at check in, was how to function the lights in the bathroom - took a minute to realize it was key operated. I would address that to future guests. I would definitely recommend this place, especially for the off season.

The place itself was great! I loved the room we got! Fully remodeled. Unfortunately you need your room keys for the only entrance through the lobby. After 8pm your locked out. How many of us will find out our room keys don't work, we got locked out while the owner repeatedly is in the lobby saying "USE YOUR CARD!!" DIDNT bother opening the door and continued eating with his friends/family. Very rude custom service which killed the vibe of the hotel.

Great price but rooms need updating (connect wall switches to lamps, add overhead lighting, insulate walks against noise). Also next time I’ll drag myself upstairs to avoid overhead noise which made sleep difficult. Excellent restaurant across the parking lot though!
