What a gem of a hotel! The staff was so welcoming. We had a wonderful breakfast, better than the three other hotels we’ve stayed at on this holiday. The room was clean and the bathroom may have been on the smaller side but it was sparklingly clean and the shower was very roomy. We will plan to stay again next time in Tauranga.
