Shining Star Beachfront Accommodation
Friendly staff. The room is clean, tidy and the bed is comfortable. Sadly the motel WiFi didn't work from inside the room, and the heater didn't heat up properly.

Copthorne Hotel Greymouth
The hotel staff are friendly, helpful and supportive, Good local knowledge. The restaurant has an excellent variety of tasty, well presented foods. Rooms are modern, clean and well serviced. Don’t be put off by the exterior of the building, it does not reflect the interior. Will be back next time ...
