Hotels With Breakfast in Northland, New Zealand

Great stay at this motel which is well positioned on the main road and a short walk from the Wharf and bus terminus. Clean, modern hotel with well furnished room - tv/ sky/tea, coffee facilities etc - housekeeping daily. The reception staff are helpful, knowledgeable and lots of tourists info available. I would certainly stay here again and would recommend .

We stayed in a king superior room and we were pleased with the cleanliness of the room and the view was more then beautiful, I’d definitely recommend staying here to anyone who asks about Copthorne bay of islands. We also ordered the lamb shank and pork belly on the dinner menu and we pleased with that and our room service.. Breakfast was to die for aswell. Would love to stay again.

The location is great, a few minutes walk to beach front and maim centre for food. Amenities include cutlery, fridge, microwave, kettle etc. Only thing is there is no air-conditioner but fans were provided but luckily it wasn't too hot when we were there but in peak summer, no a/c would have been bad.

Hotel has invested & upgraded however not in the public areas where carpet looks distinctly tired. The rooms has new carpet, a huge round mirror and bespoke fittings however the bathroom still has the old tiles and 1980s 45° plastic shower which feels very claustrophobic. No liquid soap & soap cakes are supplied. Complimentary tea & instant coffee but a very bare fridge except for UHT milk pods. TV has usual freeview stations including ABC (Aussie), French TV & DW (German) but no Sky channels. Unfortunately the entry door has 1 inch gap underdoor which allows a lot of noise to intrude. Also no smoke seals or auto closer (non complying under current NZ Building Code but probably OK as built before NZ Building Act 1992 came into force). Party walls also allow a lot of inter-room noise (we left the bathroom fan on to provide some background masking). Aircon/heating is provided by a domestic looking & yellowing hi-bay heat pump which didnt try. Breakfast was standard fare with bacon, scrambled eggs, sausages, cereals, raw juice etc. Espresso is available on request but extra cost eg. $6 for Latte. Plenty of carparking and convenient walking distance to Town Basin. Concluding, hotel is slowly upgrading but still a lot to do - 3.5 stars

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.

I booked this place first and then found the reviews on here which then made me a bit nervous about what our stay was going to be like. But after staying here I wish I never read the negative comments as I found we had nothing to worry about. This place is absolutely fine and you get what you pay for. There are definitely better places to stay at but you will be charged for these types of places obviously. The room we stayed in was actually good and was modern (modern TV, air con, carpet, beds). It was clean and tidy and looked like the photos that I had seen online. The room had a private bathroom, tv, air con/heater unit, kettle, mugs, tea, coffee, sugar, small dining table/chairs and the beds. The beds were clean and comfy. Wifi worked well from our room. We didn't use the communal bathroom or kitchen but had a look, and these rooms were basic, but clean and tidy. Nice deck and close to Haruru Falls. Plenty of parking and friendly staff. I would have to say the gardens/outside areas could do with more work/maintenance but overall this place was great and good value for money. You get what you pay for and it depends on your priorities when it comes to accommodation. I just like a place to be clean, tidy, friendly and look like the images online/no false advertising and this place ticked all those boxes!

If you live in the states or have stayed in a Quality Inn in the US, you are aware that they are far from quality. This hotel however exceeded expectations. I spent the day diving the Poor Knights. The dive shop had recommended I stay here, being convenient is an understatement. I booked through booking.com, I’m not sure if other methods offer a cheaper rate - I have noticed with other accommodations that booking.com adds a charge that may not exist if booking direct. Easy to find, good signage and had open spaces in the parking lot upon arrival. The staff at the front desk both checking in and checking out were wonderful. Very personable and friendly. My room was perfect. Incredibly spacious. Gorgeous view of the marina. The sunset and sunrise were picturesque. I was awed when I opened the door and it confirmed I made the right choice about my stay. The bathroom is also spacious, good shower pressure and hot water. The bed was comfortable and I slept like a rock. Brekky starts downstairs at 7 am. It is not included in the nightly rate but was tastey. I had to be at the dive shop at 8, I arrived downstairs around 720 and still had enough time to eat the oats, pastry and drink a coffee. I would stay again and recommend for your stay.

I like the location and Bay of Island is beautiful. Admiral's View Lodge is clean, quiet and offers self driving traveller's everything what one needs. Paihia's small community is nice, friendly and one can feel safe. I lost my mobile phone while I went out for dinner and found it in the next morning thanks to the lost and found board in the community.

Spacious, clean and comfortable room. Friendly people. Sliding door opens to lovely patio and nice grounds. I had to walk down the driveway at night and there was no lighting

Please look after Pau the same way she looks after us! She is amazing.She makes mine and the boys stay very good. Pretty much the only reason we come back is cos of her. The food is yum, portions could be bit more for us though as some of the boys don't come breakfast yet we are still charged for it, but if we ask for extra food they don't really give it cos it aint in the ”budget” of $110 that our company pays for food everyday.

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.

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.

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.

The room was clean and decent size but the room and bathroom walls and doors need redecorating and at least a fresh paint job. The sliding window didn’t close properly either and I got some odd reason that it was designed that way to let in air. The way to access the room meant I had to walk along the side of the hotel where the bins are without a proper sensor light or set of them. I didn’t feel comfortable walking back that way. The hotel itself was locked and dark after 7. I did ask them to turn a light in at the front and they did do that. The pool was fine but the jacuzzi was half filled with old water and not working. Overall not a good experience despite cheery staff who I felt had no control over changing the situation.

Best location in Waitangi as you can have a spot close to the lagoon with a view of the seabirds fishing, terns diving and coming up with fish in their beaks. The campground has two facility blocks so there is no crowds in the kitchen or waits for the showers. The showers were hot and flowing strongly which is always very important. Staff were friendly and helpful and got me the same spot after I came back from the Cape.

Pembroke Motor Lodge was great. Stayed for one night in November 2023. Room was spacious and very clean. Bed and pillows were very comfortable, with quality fine cotton sheets. Good aircon. Good value. Location is ideal for exploring Whangarei and surrounds. Bob and Carol were so welcoming, friendly and hospitable. They made our stay. Highly recommend.

Restaurant review: I went with a group of friends so luckily sociability was more of a priority for me than the food and this was the saving grace for the night. Flames in my opinion cannot be described as an atmospheric dining experience as touted. For the non discerning diner who is happy with pub style fare the menu served, it was questionably passable. Those seeking atmosphere or a romantic intimate setting should look elsewhere. That aside the staff were pleasant. Overall the standard of food was not up to basic chef standard which makes me question if there was a trained chef in the kitchen.. My chicken Parmigiana and accompanying risotto balls were deep fried and overcooked resulting in dry fillets rather than succulent as described in the menu. The tomato sauce was missing and it was covered in what looked like a crinkled yellow sheet of plastic type cheese. The accompanying piece of broccoli and bok choy provided a welcome relief to this desert fare. I managed to get through half of the meal only. Complaints abounded from others who complained of tough steaks, dark brown chips, coleslaw instead of seasonal salad and the desert menu looked more suited to a child's menu being lots of over-sauced and cherried icecream and a panacotta that was tasteless and resembled a very solid door stop .What was served was at odds with the description on the website and I failed to see where any real or imaginative cooking or presentation had taken place. It all seemed more like freezer to deep fryer fare and this is fine if those were our expectations and the menu priced accordingly. If this review seems harsh its not meant to be, I wish it were the opposite but hopefully it will lead to reflection and improvements. its just that I can tell when food is not prepared with care and love and its somewhat irritating when ingredients are seemingly trampled on, they deserve better. Suffice to say, I will not be frequenting this restaurant for a 'dining experience' again. Unfortunately no photos were taken as despite the poor quality of food the company was excellent and we all had an enjoyable time catching up.

Tim and Jan at reception were very friendly and accommodating. Due to bad weather, we decided to change our bookings and leave early. They were very receptive to our concerns and did not mind it one bit. The room we got was great! It was clean and tidy, with double-glazed windows, so it turned out to be a short but very comfortable and peaceful stay. Since we were new to the area, Tim was also kind enough to offer suggestions on places to visit/eat, bearing in mind we had two young kids. Highly recommend!

Please look after Pau the same way she looks after us! She is amazing.She makes mine and the boys stay very good. Pretty much the only reason we come back is cos of her. The food is yum, portions could be bit more for us though as some of the boys don't come breakfast yet we are still charged for it, but if we ask for extra food they don't really give it cos it aint in the ”budget” of $110 that our company pays for food everyday.

This is a great motel. After Easter camping washed out this was my bolt hole. I needed dry and wifi for a couple of days of work. The management are friendly, efficient and considerate. The room was fab- fresh, clean and spacious. With big comfy bed, FULL and well equipped kitchen (speedy convection hob and oven), the bathroom is new with a powerful hot shower. The little detail of a provincial style table [rather than ugly built in desk unit] is cute. Double extra points for clear signed in room recycling, no single use bathroom products and they don’t take the towels when you don’t need them too! There’s a small pool, but it was seasonally closed in mid April :( The negatives… there’s no cafetière and the shower door leaks! Would recommend and would happily return.

Was an ok stay for one night slightly higher pricing and the mattresses were a bit past so not a good sleep unfortunately then we were rudely awoken by someone bashing on our door and didn't stop til we opened it only to go sorry wrong room this was at 7am unfortunately we left before open hours of the office or we would have asked for a partial refund on our stay
