Popular Thames 4-star Hotels

Grafton Cottage and Chalets is situated on a hillside facing the Hauraki Gulf, a couple of kilometres south of the Thames town centre. We spent one night in Rose Chalet, close to the pool and spa area. We had a spectacular view of the gulf from the chalet, which was clean, quiet and very comfortable, with everything we needed. Alby gave us a warm welcome and was very helpful in providing advice and information about the area. We enjoyed the generous continental breakfast that he brought to our chalet. The premises are in a good location for exploring the Thames area and only a short drive from several well-regarded cafes and restaurants. We would happily stay here again!

Finally found a motel in Thames that is nice. Good location. Great bed and pillows, very clean. Easy parking and only three minutes from town . Across the road from the beach. The only down sides were, the room heater didn’t work and it was very cold night, luckily the motel sitter found a portable heater that solved the problem. There was also an uncomfortable toilet seat that did not fit the toilet in our room. Minor things. We will definitely be back now that we do not have to stay in old , smelly run down accommodation.

We found our cabin very roomy, everything very comfortable. Plenty of soap and towels made available. Nice large bathroom and kitchen had all the essentials in it. We arrived in the dark and it was very wet weather so it was not the best way to arrive as everything looked dreary. We have a large ute so we did have to park that carefully under the front awning, but it did fit. However, once we got inside, it was nice and warm once the heat pump had warmed the cabin and it was spacious. We had a fabulous sleep in the peaceful neighbour hood and with the sky clouded over, there were no visible stars and no moonlight and the opposite shores covered in a wet haze. It was wonderful for my niece from Melbourne to see pitch black night for the very first time as we looked out across the Firth of Thames!

Friendly staff, all of the facilities were really clean. I got some useful tips from the reception staff on spots to swim in the creek, and they were happy to take my details to look out for me when I was hiking solo to the Pinnacles summit. Can’t fault it for the price of a bed in a shared dorm! Good location and a decent amount of options for cooking (oven, grill, hob, toaster, BBQs). The avocado tree across from reception also was a great bonus - I was gutted that there weren’t any ripe enough to eat over the few days I stayed.
