Amazing

Person at check in was very friendly and helpful, recommended some points of interest with a map during our visit. The room was very clean and quiet during the night with great background views. The only minor issues was the shower pressure, slow floor drainage and no kitchen sink.

Nestled in the breathtaking coastal town of Kaikoura, the hotel provided a charming retreat. The room was stylish and well-appointed, offering a comfortable and serene atmosphere. The staff was warm and accommodating, making guests feel right at home, making it a perfect choice for those seeking a tranquil escape in New Zealand.

The facilities are relatively complete, but the room is too dark and looks a bit depressing. The washroom is a bit shabby. A few of our lights were broken, and the little girl in charge immediately brought a ladder and replaced them.

Had one night there in late May, such amazing friendly service and the room was so clean and the bed so comfortable! So quiet and we had a good nights sleep! Would go back there for sure! Shower pressure was just epic, great rooms, first class amenities!

Terrible - didn’t get a wink of sleep! Noisiest motel I’ve ever stayed in, very disrespectful place. I’ve been to rock concerts that were quieter than this joint, save your shillin and go somewhere that respects all it’s customers.
Response from Property: Im sorry you had a bad experience which I might point out is not the norm. As we dont know who you are and when you came through i cant comment on what occurred that night. Our managers are on site 24/7, noise is not tolerated after 10pm and if you had rung management im sure it would have been addressed. The Tavern is a locals bar which does not open late either. I do wish you had informed us of your issue at the time so it could have been dealt with.

I’m a regular guest at the Lobster inn , I’m there every two weeks and I’m always impressed at the friendly helpful service , the rooms are always spotless ,lovely comfortable beds, the owners care about providing old fashioned service and are always willing to help in any way. A good variety of meals can be enjoyed at the bar and restaurant with regular specials and additions to the menu. I travel extensively for my work , and have a good opportunity to critique South Island accomodation the Lobster Inn Kaikoura rates at the top of my preferred list .
