Popular Sea View Hotels Paihia, Find the Lowest Prices

Comfort: The room is spacious, but the bed is a bit old and a little tumble. Facilities and equipment: The kitchen utensils are fully equipped and cooked for two nights. But the bedroom has no heating, nor can it provide a small heater. It can only be heated by the air conditioner in the living room, but the heating can be blown to the bedroom and it will feel cool. Surrounding environment: There are beaches to go outside. It may be less in the suburbs and less car, so it is more comfortable and comfortable. There are supermarkets nearby, but there are fewer restaurants. Front desk service: very nice, after entering the room, I saw the small card left on the table, accompanied by chocolate and milk, and listened to the intimate.

We had a great couple of days in this lovely accommodation then Cyclone Gabrielle hit. Fortunately we were well looked after by Penny and her staff while we sheltered it out. The advice we got about road and travel conditions was invaluable. If we had to sit it out anywhere this was the most comfortable place to be Lovely accommodation and staff in a beautiful place Anne and Don , Scotland

Unfortunately overpriced for the standard of accommodation. Do not be fooled by the website photos. Even my photos make the accommodation look good yet when you are in the room it is clear this place needs work These photos are either way out of date and or hide the true state of the accommodation. This hotel is trading off its awards from yesteryear and is in need a refurbishment We stayed in the Superior Suite on Level 3 I have no problem with three star accommodation. I do have a problem with being over charged for poor quality accommodation at 4/ 5 star rates. On the positive: The hotel refunded $100 when I bought issues below to their attention Friendly reception and cleaning staff. Excellent sea views On the negative: Tired looking rooms Water damaged timber in the kitchen Sofa seating stained and worn/stained dining room seating A shower that floods the bathroom floor due to shower head setup A cassette player in the room. That’s right this room has a cassette player. This shows how old the setup is. No battery in remote. Floor tiles looking dated and old Dated pine furniture Dated amenities in bathroom Exposed wires from TV in bedroom running down the wall instead of being hidden behind the wall No robes in room upon arrival Adjoining doors to next door hotel room unlocked with no key to lock it. Great if you want to your electronics to go missing Rubbish bin in bathroom old and not working correctly Reception closed by either 9.30 pm or 10.00pm and no one to answer phone after these hours (or no one picked up when we tried) No room service after reception closes (you have to prebook after hours room service – who prebooks their after-hours service?) Blunt restaurant staff Apart from the pool area an extremely basic common area setup Exterior of hotel needs a paint job and some well overdue maintenance.

My daughter and I were delayed an extra day in Paihia due to Cyclone Gabrielle We stayed at Aloa in clean, well set up self contained unit .John who runs the motel could not have been more helpful We were so lucky to find such a wonderful kind person to help us

BE AWARE IF YOU HAVE SPECIAL CONDITIONS DON”T BOOK THROUGH BOOKING.COM. I booked more than 6 months in advance, asking for a bottom floor as my elderly mother (who needs a knee replacement) can't get up stairs. I get to hotel to find out we are on top floor up steep stairs. I speak to Asian man at reception who tells me no English (Hmmm I thought I was in NZ?), I demand to speak to someone, he calls manager, I explain situation - she asks did I use booking.com or expendia I said ”yes”, she said oh nothing much can be done unless you use our own website as those companies don't know the configuration of the motel. Lucky for us a beautiful lady and her granddaughter overheard all this and offered to swap - as the motel was not going to assist in any way. ANYWAY, it only gets better ..... be aware the rooms look NOTHING like the pictures. Plug points don't work, shower head won't stay up so you need to hold it - oh and it's a shower curtain situation YUK! There is an air con unit looks like from the 1980's and that does not work. I could say more but you get the general warning. I don't like to give this type of feedback in these tough times but $700 (hard earned $$) for 3 nights, I would expect more and not assisting us with our request because we used another agency that ”you advertise on” - is very unfair ...... thank goodness for kind soles who overheard this, as Mum would have never got up the stairs. Disappointed. *The cleaning staff are absolutely lovely ladies, very accommodating and friendly - hard to clean when the place is this rundown. To be fair there is a new section to this hotel - this review is for the grey part of the hotel shown in the pictures. *Wish I took pictures of this room :(

On arriving for my 3rd stay at Bounty, I was delighted to find Paul the manager, was still working there. As usual, I was greeted to a very warm welcome, more like an old friend than a casual visitor. The motel offers very clean and comfortable rooms, at a very competitive price when compared to others in Paihia. Its location is only 2-3 minutes' walk from all the shops, bars and restaurants and only 1 minute from the waterfront.

This hotel is very good. We booked a room on the second floor. There is a separate room upstairs with a balcony and a good view. It is not far from the pier and the sea. There are many small shops in the town, which are worth recommending.

Paihia is so big, there is no geographical place to say, live in the circle of the beach, whatever is the same. There is a swimming pool in the hotel, but it is not possible to use it in winter. The room booked by Ctrip was on the first floor, and the light was completely blocked by the pool. It is really uncomfortable to turn on the lights during the day. The room is quite big, and the two-bedroom apartment has a separate bathroom in each room, which is quite convenient. There is a western restaurant on the doorstep of the hotel, and things are delicious.

The location is particularly good, two minutes walk from the marina. Hotel parking is free. The location is right by the sea with some sea view rooms. The breakfast restaurant can see the sea and the view is very good. A lot of flowers were planted in front of the hotel and it was very beautiful. The shuttle bus to Ninety Mile Beach can pick up at the hotel. All in all very good.

The location of the hotel is excellent, very close to the pier, and there are all kinds of specialty shops in the surrounding supermarkets. Parking is convenient and safe. The 2 bedroom apartment has a reasonable layout, warm and fresh layout, and complete kitchen supplies. The bathroom seems to be a bit cramped because of the washing machine dryer. In addition, the door switch of the room has a squeaky sound. When the night is quiet, it is still quite beautiful. In fact, the WD-40 can be solved. The hotel should be able to improve it. .
