The balcony offered a rather limited view of the river. There was a fridge in the room but no microwave. We saved some food in the fridge overnight and asked hotel staff if they could warm up our food for 1 minute. They simply refused.

Although the exterior of the building was unattractive, the staff and service more than made up for it. The interior decor was attractive and eclectic, the restaurant food was excellent and we liked that they carried local spirits on the drinks menu. Recommended +

Probably the best hotel in Greymouth

A nice hotel room, that was spacious. There’s no air conditioning but we left the balcony door open and there was no road noise. The hotel restaurant was good for both evening meal and breakfast.
