"We used this hotel for our wedding night which had originally been planned for a Friday. But due to inclement weather being forecast for the Friday we decided to bring the wedding forward to the Tuesday. Both the hotel and Agoda responded to the change of booking without any issues. The room was clean, well equipped, spacious and with a great dual aspect view over the river. There was a little noise from the highway/bridge over the river, but we didn't find that offensive. The bar and restaurant areas are light, airy and the staff very pleasant. Although we only stayed for breakfast we found the quality, choice and standard very good and reasonably priced. The location is good and within easy walking distance to the shops, bars and restaurants of Tauranga. Overall, we would recommend this hotel and would definitely stay there if we visited the area again"

"This is great hotel to stay at when visiting Tauranga. It is centrally located, but most of all it is a spacious and comfortable hotel. The bed we had was extremely comfortable, and each morning we woke well rested and ready for the day. There is secure off street parking, which is a bonus. The management are friendly and on the ball. We had a fire alarm go off while we were there, and the management evacuated everyone quickly and efficiently. Luckily there was no damage, just a well cooked steak in one of the upper rooms. This will be our goto accommodation when next we visit family in Tauranga."
