An iconic hotel , with a special history. Lovely setting. Staff very friendly and helpful. Sourdough for breakfast was yummy. Hotel, overall however, a ‘bit tired’. Shared facilities so, in my opinion room was over priced on booking. com.

A great pub with beautiful views of Lyttleton Habour and Quail Island. It was lovely dining on the deck with delicious food and friendly staff. The evening meal was also good with a cheerful Friday night crowd.

The hotel is older but well kept. Rooms are comfortable, and have a very long shared walk out balcony, with a magnificent view of the ocean. There’s a main floor restaurant which serves a variety of dishes and a variety of drinks from the bar. There’s a patio just outside the restaurant which provides a view of the ocean. There’s a decent help yourself continental breakfast. The area is lush with jungle like plants and trees and other restaurants nearby. The dollar value was very good for the area and the accommodations. The drive was under half an hour from the city and was enjoyable along the winding paved road.

I loved the location of this hotel. Gorgeous views from the balcony. The bathrooms are shared, but very clean. We ordered pizza from the bar, it was excellent, but pricey. We stayed in room no. 1. The wifi connection there was extremely poor. Cannot comment for other rooms. Also, for breakfast they only have cereal and toast.

Older and shared bathroom with stairs to room. A beautiful area with pleasant views. Too expensive for what it is during rate increase for Xmas holidays. Very good food and bar.

Beautiful views and unique old style. We loved the pool and grounds staff friendly and helpful. We didn't like the strong food smells in the room. A scented candle or an essential oil diffuser would have been lovely. There was a lovely large candle in the fire place but no matches.

For the price I paid I thought the room could have been a lot better. I didn't like there was mo private bathroom in the room. Having a communial shower in the hallway to me isn't very hygienic as u don't no what hidden bugs people have got. Aside from that the atmosphere was nice and I enjoyed the pool.

Very easy check in. Our room looked a little tired but very spacious and clean. Comfy bed. Don’t be put off by not having en-suite facilities, we had no problem using the bathrooms when we needed them. Ate on site, delicious meals. All staff very helpful and friendly.
