AMAZING food! Great hosts and staff. Awesome atmosphere, wouldn't go anywhere else in Akaroa More

We were really looking forward to our weekend in Akaroa. Unfortunately this was completely ruined by our stay at L'Hotel. Our room was directly over the main bar and when we arrived a live band was playing. We were assured by staff that the bar would wind down at 22:30-23:00, which we would have found acceptable, although the noise levels... More

Stayed in Room 2. Fantastic location and view--right on the corner, and across from the main pier. We stayed here in the off season, so there were no problems with noise, but I could see how on a busy high season weekend, it might get a bit noisy, as there is a popular restaurant below. While we there, cigarette smoke... More

myself and my wife visited Akaroa and stayed at L'hotel for 2 nights. It has by far the best views of the harbor and the restaurant food is excellent value - dinner menu very reasonable for fine dining in a relaxed pub type atmosphere. THankyou to Johnno who looked after us so well, the manager really went out of his... More

We couldn't believe our luck when we arrived in Akaroa after a long journey from Melbourne via Sydney without our luggage. It was like we had died and gone to heaven. L'Hotel is really fantastic with only four rooms on the upper floor with the restaurant on the ground floor. The room we had ( number 4 ) was a... More

For my first night in new Zealand, the staff at l'hotel were very understanding and kind. The airline had left my bag in Australia instead of forwarding it on, and the staff at l'hotel (Sara I think) called the airport for me and organized the drop off my suitcase the next day. Was wonderful. The rooms were great. Views were... More

The room was brilliant and matched what was on the website. Views from the room were excellent. The room was clean, comfortable, well appointed and all that we could ask for. Don't be put off by the restauraunt below as it was very quiet and closed early enough not to create any bother. No smells either. A perfect start to... More

My wife and I live in Christchurch and have stayed at L'Hotel on a number of occasions for a short break away from the city. The bedroom balconies overlooking the boulevard waterfront location are perfectly designed to catch the ambience of the beautiful harbour views, and the complex boasts a restaurant and bar also opening onto the waterfront which provides...
