A nice surprise,a last minute trip & this was cheaper. But after a renovation inside this was a comfy night in a family room{6} at a budget price.Whilst we had our own bathroom/shower,kitchen & lounge were shared if required..Would stay here again if the need arises.

The owner was incredibly helpful. The hotel used to be a hostel and the rooms were redone. I had a nice room. Community kitchen. Nice living room to hang out in. I would definitely stay here again

I was pleasantly surprised overall about my stay at the kiwi hotel. I had room #1 which was conveniently next to the shower. The room was neat, clean, and the bed comfortable. Minimal noise out the window at night. Staff was so welcoming and accommodating, making me a cup of coffee and ushering me into the living room to rest. Price is incredible and a short walk from the intercity bus stop. Close to Polynesian Spa and the main downtown area. Next to a delicious Korean fried chicken restaurant.

Cheerful helpful man in charge. Business was acquired in 2024. Money has been spent on improvements.

Location - superb, walking distance to supermart, eating places/bars/cafe, lake front park, spa etc. Room - clean, neat, bright and spacious for me. Common kitchen - utensils, mugs, microwave, fridge available for some easy meals. Fast check in and friendly and helpful staff. No issue with shared bathroom and shower as generally not many are sharing and are always available. Happy staying here.

The owner was very welcoming on arrival and showed us the facilities and the room. Room was spacious with sink in room. Towels provided and toiletries in the shower. Use of kitchen wirh all you could need, teabags ,coffee,sugar etc provided.Dining room and tv lounge big and comfy. The new owners have only had it a few months and are working hard to bring the rooms upto date.

It’s important to keep one’s expectations in check. Is this an immaculate luxury hotel? No, it’s dated and a little rough around the edges. But the bathroom, beds, and shared kitchen were clean. Gurdev, one of the directors, was helpful and friendly and gives out his number in case you need anything. I don’t think there’s air conditioning, but the electric fan kept us very cool and comfortable. We had no problems with noise. The location was within walking distance of many places to eat and things to do. We were a 10-minute Uber ride to the Mitai Māori Village and another quick ride to the airport.

The family that runs the property is very kind. The room was clean and comfortable. The overall house is run down and shows its age - it was a boarding house in its hayday. It was hard to get over the smell of Indian food and air freshener in the common areas (the room did NOT smell). It was a convenient location.
