Distinction Whangarei Hotel & Conference Centre, hotel in Whangarei

Boasting an indoor pool, fitness center and a hot tub, Distinction Hotel Whangarei is located opposite Hatea River. Free WiFi and parking are available as well as a 24-hour front desk.

Wonderful and freshly decoreated rooms, but the overall hotel / hallways and common areas in dire need of refurbishment. Comfy and clean and our room though. Spacious car-park etc. The rooms were also quite spacious and had all you need. Nice location, close to city center and quiet/calm (a nice walk over bridge to Hundertwasser museum). The kids loved the pancake machine for breakfast.

Grand Hotel - Whangarei, hotel in Whangarei

Located in Whangarei and with Northland Event Centre reachable within a 16-minute walk, Grand Hotel - Whangarei has a restaurant, non-smoking rooms, free WiFi and a bar.

The Grand Hotel has seen much better days, but the room was clean and the hotel's location within walking distance to shops, restaurants and tourist attractions makes it an ideal location. It was good enough for the Queen, who stayed there with her husband 71 years ago.

    Loved the Riverside restaurants and playground area.

    Loved the Riverside restaurants and playground area. The Hunderwaisser museum was good too. The walk along the river on a good day and arty house and crafts in shops are delightful. Whangarei city is nice to investigate the many stores and restaurants some up little alley ways. Great coffee and breakfasts there too. It's a lovely city I've visited many times.

    People/salespersons are usually pleasant and helpful.

    People/salespersons are usually pleasant and helpful. Your ID will probably be checked at least once by police. Large selection of food places. Apart from Hundertwasser Art Centre, Whangarei Museum, the alternative Quarry Art Centre and the Waterfalls, check out town has anything else you need or are interested in… a quiet town otherwise!

    The place is pretty by the marina with shops and restaurants, but! Due to circumstances missed the lunch/dinner hours for eating out. All (yes all on the waterfront) restaurants only offer bar snacks during other hours. EG fries, squid rings etc. We wanted something more substantial. Many people were walking away when they found that out. This is a tourist spot for pities sake! We had had a long drive and were starving! Also no really nice accommodation. Best I found was 3 1/2 star Distinction Hotel which has good bones but was really tired needing a major makeover. Stained carpet, wall paper peeling off. I am a kiwi and embarrassed that this tourist spot has sat on its laurels. I know people struggling with covid etc but wouldn’t you want to do everything in your power to make your place more desirable. My view - if you don’t have to stop don’t 😡

    Pembrooke was across the road from a lovely inner city bush. We enjoyed sitting on the balcony and listening to the birdsong. Supermarkets and eats were close enough. We didn't have enough time to visit places though we know there are great places to visit.

    We only stayed for one night so we managed to get down to the marina and see the cool ball-clock and the Hundertwasser (which is amazing) and have an awesome lunch (so many places to pick from!). Next time we go to Whangarei we will be sure to do the loop walk which sounds very interesting indeed!

    We went with the kids to aquatic centre, flip out, action zone and the heritage park. Very good family entertainment and easy to drive from place to place. The motel is very close to supermarkets and various eateries. Good location.

    The concept of the Grand is awesome with so much potential original nostalgia. But you check in at the pub!!! Room had broken door handles and grout hanging off the walls, bad repair on the cracked sink(definitely worth saving and not replacing with crappy modern sink). The repairs are horrid, and take away from such a beautiful hotel under the dirt, and bad workmanship. Not thought through at all. The nostalgia of staying in the old Grand was great, and staff tried hard to make it good. Pity such a potential is wasted

    This is a lovely house-hotel place. You are sharing this house with other traveling guests, so some socializing would be going on if you stay here for more than one day. The rooms are cozy with comfortable beds. There was a small TV and plug-in electric heater provided. There are a couple of bathrooms to be shared and a homey kitchen. The host was very kind and communicative. The price was very fair as accommodations vary in this northern section of New Zealand.

    We lived the location. So much to see around the area. Mary was an amazingly warm and welcoming host and the property and setting was stunning. We felt as if we were staying in a 5 star luxurious hotel suite. On our departure, Mary gifted to us some beautiful fresh produce from her farm. Breakfast was so good. Thankyou Mary, we will recommend your stay to anyone we know heading in your direction.

    Nancy’s home is lovely! She has though of everything to make travelers feel welcome and comfortable. My spacious room had a view of the garden, a terrace, an ensuite bath with even a towel warmer. And her kitchen was fully supplied! My best stay so far in New Zealand…you won’t be sorry!

    Love the room and bed. Breakfast was standard hotel fare but fresh and acceptable. Dinners from menu were fine and service was ok. Most staff are young and in need of a bit of experience. However, they were always trying to do their best and were very polite.

    The Settlers seems fine for a 3 star hotel room. The host was very pleasant and welcoming - probably the best part of the stay. Did not go to the bar or Restaurant. As far as I can tell fine for a stopover for work.
