Top Seaward Kaikoura Range Hotel Reviews

Kaikoura Quality Suites

8/10 Good

"Good roomy unit with useful dishes etc for meals - very handy New World 50m down the road. Good wifi."

Kaikoura Gateway Motor Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Booked a 2 bedroom unit. It was great, plenty of space. This property is on a main highway but we didn't notice any noise from traffic. Would stay again."

Alpine View Motel

8/10 Good

"Clean spacious room. Bit out of town but ok if you have a vehicle. Friendly staff"

Alpine-pacific Holiday Park

8/10 Good

"The wifi was terrible. Not sure if that's because my room was the furtherest away or it's just bad in general. The room itself was nice and the toilets and showers were good. I told them I would be late arriving and they told me where to find the key. Overall the stay was good it was just the wifi that was the issue because I wanted to work from my room so it was kind of important."

Mondello Kaikoura

10/10 Excellent

"Loved my stay here, large space with a view of the snowy mountains and farm land. Comfy bed. Will be booking again."

Kaikoura Motor Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice, clean, warm, shower was amazing!!!"

Koura Bay Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Nice have the golf course right there on your doorstep! The meal we had at the restaurant was delicious. Probably the best dinner out i have had in the last 10 Years!!"

Wacky Stays

10/10 Excellent

"The place was great! Maybe not for everyone but perfect for anyone with kids or just looking for something a little different. We are seniors but have done a lot of camping and this was glamping at its best. We picked the yurt which had an outdoor kitchen and an external bathroom. Everything felt really authentic yet still very modern. It all was just there as one would expect from a nice hotel but presented in a different way. Kind of a cowboy camp or depression era type of a kitchen outside but with a gas bbq and cook stove and hot running water. Really enjoyed it. The other sites looked like interesting places to stay too. Our bathroom was as perfect as any and yet different. If coming from the south be careful with Apple app directions as it took us to where the road crosses a river only suitable for a 4x4. But from Kaikōura it was easy to get to just off the highway."

Kaikōura TOP 10 Holiday Park

8/10 Good

"Great cabin - warm, comfortable and generally clean. There was a bit of mould in the bathroom (wetfloor) unfortunately. The staff were fantastic and helpful. The holiday park is lovely. It's a shame the pool/hot pool isn't open a bit later though, especially in the warmer weather (also a shame the hot pools are not free - $20 for 30 minutes). Close to town and affordable! Enjoyed our stay! "
