Top Paihia Hotel Reviews

Edelweiss Motel

8/10 Good

"Enjoyed our 1 night stay. Basic but very clean rooms. Slept well as it was very quiet."

Paihia Pacific Resort Hotel

8/10 Good

"The room was clean, we were upgraded to a superior room, as we were staying 5 nights and they are the rooms that have a microwave. There was no tea towel, no forks, no washing up detergent or anything like that, very basic. The pool wasn't in operation, it was empty, for all the tine we were there, no mention of that when we checked it. It's just a basic motel, not a resort. Plus the large rubbish skip bin is in the driveway on the way to the units, it smelt putrid as you walked passed it. It was an easy walk to the Wharf , shops and restaurants. Monkey Business, a bar and restaurant across the road , was great and very reasonably priced."
