Is close to everything right at base of the Mount, however the property is well overdue for a re-fit. On arrival reception (after the 3pm advised time) no one on reception to check in. Was asked for a $250 bond, which still has not been refunded. This is a joke as there's nothing to take, no mini bar, no robes etc. The worst part was we led to believe that we were staying in the twin towers as per the advertised photo, but instead we put in a street level unit, very noisy. Reception smelled of curry on arrival. Room had not been aired out and smelled musty. Floor needed vacuum and tiles needed cleaning. 1 long black hair in the bed. Towels laundered but didn't smell fresh. Could not recommend any friends to stay here.

We were led to believe it was the twin towers we were paying for, we ended up in a dark, dingy, dirty, smelly, undesirable room and building. Also bathroom towels were mismatched and face clothes looked like they were used to wash the floors, discolored and worn out. Very disappointed 😔 if you view the ad for hotel they focus on the real twin towers which is beautiful !!!! Will never go there again or recommend this property !!!

At the foot of Mount Manganui, right on the summit trail and a block from an amazing beach. Easy walk to great restaurants, too. The rooms are large, staff was great, hot pool was nice and warm, pool was small but clean and refreshing, place is a little old/dated, but NO complaints.

I am only giving the ocean side resort two stars. The room was nice and located close to the beach. However when I arrived, there was sand in the bed and on the sheets. When I went to the front desk to ask for my sheets to be changed. The manager said someone would do it. But no one ever came and changed them. I ended up having to take off all the blankets and use a hand towel to brush off all the sand. It was gross and I am really disappointed by the staff at the hotel. That seems unacceptable for a 5 star hotel.
