We bought a special night including the room, 3 course meal for 2 and breakfast for 2 the next morning. We were contacted and asked if we would mind being upgraded to a suite as the restaurant was full that night with special functions and we could be served in our rooms. Not a problem and we enjoyed the upgrade... More

It's been a while since we came to the Coachman but we always enjoyed coming here. We have stayed at the Hotel in the past but as we live here now we only go to the restaurant. This place is very convenient to stay at as it is close to town and it has it's own restaurant. It also has... More

We stayed here as part of our cycling Tour of NZ, thus I'm unsure of the nightly room rates. It served our purposes fully. The room was sizeable allowing us to store our bikes in and still have room to move. The bathroom was smart although on closer inspection the wallpaper was peeling somewhat but that's just being picky. Our... More

This hotel is very nice inside belying its external appearance. On arrival we were given a suite in the motel bit of the hotel which was so awful that I asked to be moved. The hotel part was full, but we were given the option of the garden villa, a two bedroom cottage in the grounds for a reduced rate.... More

Stayed in a studio unit which had a large king bed and a single. Room had plenty of space and a large desk area. Free wifi was great. Bathroom was spacious and shower good, though shower head might have been a little low if you were a very tall person. The night I arrived there were some indications that the... More

We stayed in the studio motel this time, instead of the hotel, since it was a few dollars cheaper. It had a huge king bed with another single bed in the room. The bathroom was recently tiled and looked very smart. Enjoyed soaking in the complex spa pool just across from our room - we were the only ones in... More

We stayed one night in a motel room, while the room was large enough and clean and tidy I found the king bed and pilows some of the worst I have ever slept on. Breakfast was included however it was a buffet and looked like it had been the left overs from yesterday

You can either stay in the hotel or motel - we chose the motel. We received an excellent rate - corporate rate and well worth it. The Motel room was very clean and tidy. Bathroom was a little dated in some areas but was clean and tidy. A short walk through to the hotel and restaurant. Adequate parking right outside... More

Stayed here after purchasing a grabone deal. The room was clean, tidy and nicely decorated with a very stylish bathroom. unfortunately it was a bit of a stretch to reach the toilet roll which was attached to a holder. On reaching across to get it managed to knock the whole roll holder off its place (there was a screw missing... More
