Our stay was pleasant, out of season during quiet times helped as all hotels with so many rooms can get noisy during peak periods. The reception staff were helpful and the breakfast was basic but good value which we liked. After returning from dinner elsewhere we enjoyed desert in the bar area which was delightful, very delicious! We also enjoyed... More

Stayed for a night here in April. Staff were friendly and helpful, and the room was your average clean, comfortable hotel room. Location was great - just minutes walk from the shops and restaurants in the centre of Paihia, and the hotel looks out onto the bay with a great view from the bar/restaurant. The hotel also had a pool,... More

Thank you for your comments and feedback. We are aware of the issue with tour coaches running outside our rooms and ask the drivers not to do this. We will talk to them again to halt this practice. We have also talked to our housekeeper to stop the practice of knocking on doors before 10am. Regards. More

We arrived in Paihia with no accommodation booked. We liked the look of the Kingsgate and were pleasantly surprised at the cost. $109 per night including a buffet breakfast which was fantastic. Rooms were clean and spacious however we were a little disappointed with the A La Carte restaurant menu. Not a great selection and rather pricey for what was... More

We always choose Kingsgate whereever we can and Paihia Kingsgate didn't fail to please us. Room was lovely and clean and very comfortable. We had a lovely cooked breakfast to start the day. Handy walking distance to the shops and the wharf, couldn't ask for more. We will be back! More

The Kingsgate Hotel Autolodge Paihia won us for the night. It looked no more enticing than the other fairly standard-looking motels in town, but we proved really fortunate in our choice. The hotel was offering its weekly special of a roast that night, and we ate handsomely with three courses for $27.50 each. The entrée was potato and leek soup... More

Had a great stay at the Kingsgate - rooms and beds very comfortable. Ideal location to catch all the tourist experiences the Bay of Islands have to offer at the wharf located about 50m from hotel. Lovely breakfast each morning. More

We stayed at the Kingsgate Autolodge at Paihia with friends with a fantastic view across the water to Russell. The grounds and pool at the front were very attractive and our unit had two bedrooms, a bathroom and separate loo. It had a huge living room/kitchen and was well-equipped except of course no-one ever provides scissors!! We always take our... More
