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.

    We always stay at this accommodation when visiting or passing through Whangarei. The Hotel is just beautiful with a large restaurant area, wonderful views, quiet, very spacious rooms and bathroom with a bath, free on site parking and free very good internet. We dined at the restaurant, both had the snapper fish main which was delicious, very fresh and a generous portion. Would highly recommend.

    Couldn't recommend this accommodation more! Becks was so lovely to deal with, with clear communication, and very accommodating to our requests! The accommodation was perfectly clean (I have high standards too)! Bed extremely comfortable. Just wish we could have stayed longer. Location very central as well, only a couple minutes drive to main city centre. Thank you Becks for a perfect stay.

    The beautiful Kauri villa is in the heart of Whangarei easy to find and close to lots of amenities. Our room was spacious with en suite and small kitchenette, complete with continental breakfast. The house felt very welcoming Ana relaxed, and Jenni and Tony were exceptional hosts providing valuable information about the best things to see and do, and places to eat.

    It is an older hotel, The bathroom was spotless, and large, The room itself was big with a balcony overlooking the marina. The staff in the restaurant were young and in training, they were excellent. Well done to the hotel for employing young locals and training them well. Room service breakfast was good. I would stay again.

    The villa was beautiful, inside and out and was cheap not only compared to other places in Whangarei but for how nice it was. The interior was nice with old-school paintings and couches. The staff were very accommodating with us (as we checked in late) and gave me clear instructions on accessing our rooms.

    Excellent customer service from before arrival, calling to check on booking/arrival, to accommodating extra requests like breakfast outside of the service times and extra cot for young child. Attentive, friendly, courteous and amenable. Rooms serviced well. After-care upon checking out was also excellent.

    Brilliant for a whangarei stay we used the house as a family that met half way to meet each other so 4 adults 3 kids and a baby. Just the right bedding and hang out space and the spa was lovely to use down at the motel end. You have to book your 30min slot in but it works.
