Top Tokarahi Hotel Reviews

Poshtel

10/10 Excellent

"Fantastic hotel. Beautiful rooms, lovely staff. Could not ask for more. Be aware if you are on the front of the hotel, there is some noise from the street, but this did not spoil our stay in any way. Easy 5 stars."

Ascot Oamaru Motel

8/10 Good

"The room is quite spacious. It has kitchenware but no stove, which makes cooking inconvenient. Also, I booked a two‑bedroom unit but was given a studio instead. Fortunately, the front‑desk staff were very helpful and changed it for me."
