Staff were lovely. Facilities were pretty basic but price was cheap, so good value if you’re looking by for a place that won’t break the bank. Very handy to town.

A modest room with two single but very comfortable beds. Both mornings we were awakened early by loud music from a nearby gym. A pleasent enough stay for the price

The place was perfect for my goal: walking distance to the Forum. Clean bed, hot water, historical building, high ceillings, different from other places check-in method. This place has a character. Despite arriving late and checking out earlier than usually expected from guests hours the staff ladies made it work for me smoothly. Thank you!

For what we paid it was fine. Music was super loud til very late. Very outdated. We were aloud early check in which was helpful and had free parking.

4/10 Fair

Price fair - interior outdated yet serviceable - very clean, only one chair available in room for two persons - double bed set-up against side wall, making fixed bed lighting off set. Loud music carrying up from ground floor 'Gaming Lounge' function room every evening - persistent noise nuisance until midnight first night and then until 2 a.m. the following night - with revellers then brawling into street for a full hour afterwards. Very unpleasant experience. Would not recommend for families as language was offensive and behaviour aggressive.

Okay for a one night stay. Right in town so easy to get around. The hotel is old so you get what you pay for. The bed was comfortable and the shower was good, so that was all that I wanted for the price.

I really like Grand Hotel, Whangarei. They were badly let down by Expedia, however. Having made a reservation through Expedia and having received emailed confirmations, on my arrival at Grand Hotel, the staff had not the foggiest idea I was coming. It was only through their efforts I was accommodated.
