Grand Hotel - Whangarei, hotel in Whangarei

Situated in Whangarei and with Northland Event Centre reachable within 1.4 km, Grand Hotel - Whangarei features a restaurant, non-smoking rooms, free WiFi and a bar.

It is important to have proper expectations about this hotel. It is from another era. There is no staff - i checked in at the karaoke bar and got a key. The rooms were minimal. It was a chilly night and I could not find a heater. HOWEVER. The room was very clean, no strange smells, the bed was comfortable and that was all I really wanted for the night. Dont bring your lover here if you are trying to impress them. But as a place to stop for the night it was fine!

    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.

    The room had a lot of space and the bed was very comfy with excellent sheets (I'm very fussy about good quality sheets and these had a sateen finish). It was a clean room with a good array of toiletries and most of all the motel had information about its "green" policies so a big tick from me! What was very important is that it had lights above the bed enabling you to actually read in bed unlike many motels where there's one low light in the middle of the room which gives out poor light.

    Charming old hotel in the heart of Whangarei, with ample surrounding services including an in-house Thai restaurant and bar, and a little Italian eatery just across the road. The staff were friendly, efficient, and very helpful. Our room was clean and comfortable and the water pressure in the shower was awesome. A busy nightlife outside your window, including a train track, but once the windows are down we never heard a thing. Highly recommend it for such an affordable price.

    This is a lovely house-hotel place. You are sharing this house with other traveling guests, so some socializing would be going on if you stay here for more than one day. The rooms are cozy with comfortable beds. There was a small TV and plug-in electric heater provided. There are a couple of bathrooms to be shared and a homey kitchen. The host was very kind and communicative. The price was very fair as accommodations vary in this northern section of New Zealand.

    For our purposes being close to the Kensington Private Hospital and a good range of nearby take-away food outlets the motel was in an ideal location. The friendliness of the proprietors, Gordon and Heather, and regular staff was also appreciated. We resolved to use the motel again even if overnight stays in Whangarei were necessary for appointments at either Kensington Private or Whangarei Public Hospitals.

    Comfy beds, free in room movies and a crsipy cold Aircon. Quest quality is pretty consistent and Whangarei doesn't disappoint. Check in staff were friendly and attentive, late check out was given and was appreciated after a long drive to town. Walking distance to cafes and movies, ideal location, parking was easy to find and lifts go straight to your floor.

    The accomodation was flawlessly clean and well kept, bed super comfortable and a very spacious room. However the best part about this accomodation are the hosts, we had the most amazing chats with Francis and Andrew over breakfast and will definitely pop in for a cup of tea on our next way through whangarei!

    Dave’s friendly welcome, the location was so good, it was better on arrival than its photos depicted. Even though it was an older motel it had everything we needed, was extremely clean, we could walk to shops & restaurants…..a perfect spot to enjoy the sites of Whangārei!!

    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.

    Love the room and bed. Breakfast was standard hotel fare but fresh and acceptable. Dinners from menu were fine and service was ok. Most staff are young and in need of a bit of experience. However, they were always trying to do their best and were very polite.

    Very suprised at how quiet the room was, considering the property being on a main road and the lodge being full. Great room with good facilities. Price was really good. Will definitely return when needing a place to stay in Whangarei.

    The breakfast was excellent and a highlight of our trip. It was great to be able to eat at the same location. The lodge was lovely. It felt far more relaxed and homely than staying at a hotel or motel.
