Thank you for taking the time to pass on your kind comments. Yes our suites are large and very comfortable and the only problem we have with them is not having more of them. We look forward to seeing you at the Hotel again in the future. Kind Regards Murray Cook More

Kingsgate is priced exactly right for what it is. Rooms could do with a bit more of a thorough clean but bathrooms spotless and the suite is huge and fantastic value. Would stay here again if you want reasonably priced accommodation that doesn't claim to be anything else than exactly what it is. Lovely & quiet. Fantastic Breakfasts! More

Pleasant staff and well located close to Te Rapa. The rooms and whole complex is well over due for a total over haul. Reminiscent of a school hostel, tired dated and cheap interior, the room also smelt, possibly associated with stale water sitting in pipes/drains. The in room fridge was about as quiet as a mini jumbo jet in your... More

Thank you for your comments. Unfortunately without room numbers it is difficult to respond to the specific comments which may relate ro check in times, whether the room had just been serviced, whether the room allocated was a late check out and mini bar stocking was delayed. My apologies for the shortcomings and housekeeping staff will check on all shower... More

I'm not normally one for writing bad reviews, but on this occasion I've decided to make an exception as I think the management need to evaluate some issues.
