Little Family getaway

First stay at the Kingsgate and absolutely loved it. Close walking distance to the restaurants, and main shops. Friendly and accommodating staff. Comfortable beds and parking. Our little daughter loved the pool. We stayed here overnight before a day trip out to Urupukapuka Island. Will definitely look for deals here when we visit again, but will include the breakfast option.

Holiday

Good except. No biscuits. Shower head average. Comfort was really good.
Glen, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Comfortable and local

Very well positioned hotel being by the sea front and close to Paihia ferries and restaurants. Breakfast was below average & better options available within walking distance. Avoid, if possible, a ground floor room as cars are parked 1metre from your bedroom window.
Susan, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Perfect Location

Perfect location, clean room with comfortable bed, walking distance to the wharf and restaurants. Please note that you can't check in before 2 and it seems that there are more rooms than parking places so when they are full you may not have a space.

Leisha, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Pleasant stay - cleanliness of room and facilities were very good. Good location. We had the last room available with a King Size bed and it was set up for those with disabilities - unfortunately the bathroom enjoyed a shower when we did. However, room was spacious.
