Small regional airport with all the essential services including a cafe and car rental…read more Clean and friendly staff. If you fly here often, they know you by name. The airport is upon a hill as you enter Hokitika. Not easy to miss. Very weather dependent due to its size. Flights are often cancelled if there are low clouds. Pays to constantly check with your airline. All three major rental company have booths here but not always staffed. Pays to call and confirm first especially if you catch the last flight in. The cafe is not something I rave about.... There are better stuff in town if you are not in a hurry.

Stayed at the Kingsgate Hotel in Greymouth for one night with my sisters and mother. I can…read moreconfidently say that this is a good, spacious yet cozy hotel. Though I have experienced better hotels overall, it is definitely worth the price it is. I demoted one star due to the lack of vegetarian dishes at the downstairs restaurant, as they offered only two dishes: the flatbread (delicious, might I add) and the soup of the day, tomato and capsicum. However, they do provide gluten-free dishes, and what we ate for dinner was simply fantastic. The fish was fresh and excellently-cooked, the steak (medium-rare is what I order) could have been cooked a tiny bit better but was near-perfect combined with the fries, egg, gravy, and pepper sauce. The pasta was deliciously creamy and filling, definitely worth the price. The flatbread, pesto and Parmesan, as well as the chili and mozzarella, was divine, would definitely recommend buying a couple for the table. Excellent, highly-commended service at the restaurant and reception, very friendly and willing to help. As for the rooms, they are spacious, cleanly: not the most modern of rooms but the fantastic beds make up for it: may be the most comfortable mattress I've slept on. The bathroom was definitely a show-stopper, with a spacious shower, clean, modern, fresh feel and complimentary goodies along with the room. The coffee and tea selection was fantastic, and the milk was very appreciated. I would recommend this hotel to families: we booked twin rooms and were very impressed and pleased, to say the least.

We loved our stay here!…read more The grounds itself are so fun, with live animals to check out, access to the beach/water view, picnic areas with BBQs, and lots of greenery. The cabin was lovely for our stay - exactly the accommodations we needed with a kitchenette, teas and coffees, and some incredible shower water pressure. The local recommendations guidebook led us to the Glow Worm Dell and Kharun Thai, two of the highlights of our time in Hokitika. The office receptionist recommended Hokitika Gorge to us at checkout which was a highlight of our trip!

Shower has no lip on the floor so its the kind that gets water all over everything that this part of the world seems to love so much. No bugs and a nice big heater to keep the place warm at night. Highly recommend these apartments for a good stay in Hokitika.

Great location, friendly staff, and clean facilities, could not ask for more!…read more Fell asleep to the sound of the ocean waves under a clear night sky on a nice tent site for $26NZ. Facilities are very clean and well maintained and the women's showers are top notch! Fantastic water pressure and plenty of hot water. Spacious changing area and plenty of hooks for clothing/towels. They are even provided hairdryers. Free 250MB wifi and a comfy TV lounge.

Otira Stagecoach Hotel is an absolute treat to stay at and I recommend spending a night here if you…read moreplan to drive between the West Coast and Christchurch via Otira/Arthur's Pass. They claim that staying here will take you back in time. It absolutely does. When you walk in, you are treated to an overwhelming amount of old antiques ranging from several decades and potentially centuries. The property is a cafe, restaurant and bar. They have everything you can think of for NZ cuisine - coffee, other drinks, pies, pastries, actual food, fish and chips, etc. There is a LOT. Every room here is in theme. You can spend hours exploring every single piece. There are pictures with the history of Otira Hotel (previously Terminus Hotel). The outdoor area is also filled with interesting architectural pieces and models. Gandalf and Gollum are just some of them. There is a farmyard which houses goats and chickens. There is a talking parrot but he refused to talk to us. The rooms are all themed Victorian. Large 4-poster beds, with dark interiors and lots of intricate designs on everything - wall papers, the washing basin, the toilet, etc. There is a common room which has a fridge, coffee and hot chocolate making supplies, dry breakfast, a TV, lots of CDs to watch movies with, books and a freaking massage chair!! We got there late and I used the massage chair and pretty much fell asleep in it...that's how good the chair was. Some bedrooms have attached bathrooms, but there is also a common area with at least 3 toilets, 2 showers and 1 clawfoot tub. You might hear trains passing by, but I slept very well. Last but not the least - a word about the owner. He is a very sweet man. We called him to let him know that we would be late to check in. He had said that everything would be kept ready for us, but he actually stayed up and waited for us! He even offered to cook us something that late at night! In the morning, he was up and about earlier than expected and very kindly offered to give us breakfast before the opening time. He gave us several recommendations about things to see. You, sir, are very kind and adorable! Thank you so much for looking after this property and us. If you plan to drive by Otira, please stop by Otira Stagecoach Hotel for a meal if you can't stay the night!
