Best Hotels near Seebeck Children＇s Park, Greymouth

The hotel belongs to the typical Holiday Park. There is a public kitchen, bathroom and shower room. It is a bit cold in winter, but the heating is very good. After the quilt is there, the clerk is now letting us take it. The hygiene can only be said to be acceptable. It’s not very convenient to get the door, but there are children playing, and the children are happy.

We stayed the night after coming across from Christchurch on the Trans Alpine train. (And that is such a wonderful trip in itself- thoroughly recommend it) Murray and Wendy are great hosts, friendly and helpful and able to point us towards interesting things to do around Greymouth while we were there. Their units are spotless, all our basic requirements were covered and the shower is amazing. Full on hot and abundant! Murray dropped us back to the train the next day and when my husband discovered he had left his jacket in the back of the car, Murray made it back down to the train station with said item of clothing, just before the train departed. He definitely went above and beyond expectations.

We Stayed 2 nights with no issues at these comfortable and clean accommodations. But due to chronic pain health issues for my husband he was unable to get up and leave for the usual checkout time. This happens occasionally for him and out of his control. I asked for late checkout for 1 pm but was told this was not allowed and this created great problems for bookings in the place. ( which was not full on a monday night) For us to stay till 1 pm just 2 hours later, i would have to pay 130$ for an extra night . There was no interest in our dilemma no half day rate no extended late checkout.. Left with no other choice we paid the 130$ with the intent to leave at one. However as we had paid , we stayed in the room till 4 pm before leaving for home. Headed home to Christchurch feeling bruised and bereft of the usual kiwi understanding and hospitality.

This place is excellent. It's definitely one of the better backpackers I've stayed at anywhere in the world. It is spotlessly clean and tidy. We had two nights (January 1 & 2) here in the double private room (room 15) and we were impressed. The communal areas are well stocked and clean. The kitchen is well equipped with plenty of utensils, crockery etc. The dining area is good too. There's an excellent lounge and seperate TV area for when the weather is poor (often in Greymouth). There's also a spa, washing lines and helpful, friendly staff. The bathrooms and shower area are kept clean. The whole place is decorated with a distinctly global feel in keeping with the place's name. Most is African - it's all very colorful and pleasant. If you're looking for a budget friendly accommodation option in Greymouth, thisnis a good option.

It was only after I found out that there was a large cemetery behind the hotel, which was still full of jealousy for Asians. There is no air conditioning in the room and it is still very hot in summer. The hotel is not very soundproof. Other facilities are not bad.

When we got to Greymouth, it was a bit cold. Fortunately, the hotel has an electric heater. It is not cold, you can cook, you can park, just park in the yard.

We arrived at the hotel and had a pang of disappointment. It looks quite austere from the outside. When we entered we were very pleasantly surprised. It is modern, clean and well laid out. We were greeted by Kelly who is absolutely wonderful at her job. She is so enthusiastic and welcoming - the best Kiwi welcome of our road trip so far. She gave us some great recommendations of things to do and places to go in the area. We went to our room and it was huge! Two double beds and a lovely bathroom (and a great shower). It had obviously been refurbished recently to a very good standard. The bed was very comfortable. We were on the top (6th) floor with great views. We had a nightcap in the evening -the bar is well stocked with some great gins. Kelly and Ella chatted with us like old friends and we had a lovely time and found out lots more what the area had to offer....so much so that we booked another night! Another nightcap and another great chat with Kelly and Ella again. We didn't have dinner in the restaurant but breakfast was superb and the coffee outstanding. Great staff, comfortable room and in the middle of town with its own parking.....what more could you ask?

We stayed there for 2 nights in 2007, we couldn't go back that far. Must have been different owners and we stayed in off-peak so it was very quiet. It was clean and our double bed room was comfortable. Great historic building with such awesome interesting themed rooms. It was more than fine for us and reasonably priced compared to possibly finer hotels but this was way more homely,quaint and interesting. I believe the kitchen was as good as any decent backpackers. We weren't disappointed as were not wanting a millionaire accommodation hotel but a warm atmosphere.

Overall it's not bad, it should be a better motel there. The room is very spacious and you can cook by yourself. The bathroom is also very clean and spacious. The only downside is that the bed is very soft, but most foreigners are like this. The hotel was almost empty because of the epidemic, but it was kept clean. If you have to stop at Greymouth, it is a good choice.

About 8 minutes walk to town centre ... close to Monteith Brewery and good Indian restaurant ... also a cafes and bars/pubs. The rooms are just what we, a couple of 70 year olds, wanted. The manager is very good. The shower/bathroom was lovely.
