Room was on small side even for a couple. âKitchenetteâ had no sink ( only water in bathroom). Had to ask for dishwashing cloths. Cute little balcony but no light out there.
We would stay again, the only thing we could fault was on arrival there was a message on the desk to say 'back in 5 mins' but we waited quite a some time and eventually had to ring the phone number of the hotel to get someone to book us in.The lady who came was apologetic, but it wasn't a good look for the hotel.
We were initially put in a room that appeared to be a former conference room (Room #22). It was cavernousâa huge room with a bed in the middle. Very odd, especially for the two of us. We requested a different room, and had to pay an additional NZ$75 for a more âtraditionalâ room. This room had a spa tub, which was nice, but the mirror reflections from the building meant the people in the building next to us had a straight view into our spa tub. The restaurant didnât open until 8 am, which is a little late for breakfast if youâre trying to get an early start. On the positive side, coffee and milk was provided. For the money, I would not recommend this hotel.
Parking was a constant gamble and the TV barely worked. Though the room was clean and it was close enough to town to get a good walk or a quick drive. Would stay again
This place needs some refreshing and care. looking very tired and a little unclean, broken coffee plunger, kettle that leaked. Staff were pleasant enough and parking good, unfortunately our room had no view of the lake, but bed was comfortable.
We found our stay at the Cove to be absolutely wonderful. The service was great, our room was serviced beautifully, the Cafe had lovely treats to eat, thanks for our stay.
Lovely location. Very comfortable bed. Have stayed twice and would stay again. Bathroom needs basic update. No towel rail and only a hook on back of bathroom door.
Very comfortable bed. Plenty of towels and toiletries. Only two niggles: better not to have shower over bath as it was quite slippery. The gate on the spa should go the other way; it's difficult to get up the steps and having to push the gate back. Toilet seat is quite a thin plastic, not really "luxury". All other facilities great like fridge, jug, cutlery and TV.
Does not match the pictures. Bedding needs to be cleaned as well as the drapes, probably carpet too . Lots of road noise. Would not recommend. Seems like they donât care much about property.
