The hotel is conveniently located near the main dining area and walkway. The rooms are rather dated and could use a makeover; they were grubby and in need of refurbishment. The lack of thorough vacuuming was disappointing on both days of our stay.

Rooms

The room was located near the main dining area and walkway, making it a bit noisy during the early evening. It felt tired, dull, and uninviting, and the window in the bedroom couldn't even shut properly. The bathroom was the standout feature, nice and dark with plenty of space for cases.

The hotel's location is perfect for tourists looking to explore Greymouth, with good proximity to attractions. The rooms were uncomfortably hot during summer, lacking air conditioning and fans. The service, while quick in response, had moments of below-average performance. The dining options were limited but of good quality. The facilities need some attention.

The hotel had good rooms with a great view, but they were not very well isolated, so you could hear everything. Only saw one staff member during our stay, but the room was nice, comfortable, and warm on a particularly cold weekend. The location was ideal, close to the railway station and cafés, and the dining experience was good overall.

I stayed in the old part of the hotel on the ground floor facing a noisy road with a tree blocking the light, but the courtyard was lively with restaurant guests. The service was a mix of positive attitudes and some unfriendliness. The location, while central, had some cleanliness issues and unexpected charges. The dining experience offered a great variety, but the facilities didn't stand out.
