오포노니 호텔

The balcony rooms were great and the front of house staff could not have been more welcoming and efficient. Nothing was too much trouble, except for the kitchen. The chef needs to find a job that he is actually competent in. Catch of the day: small serving of chips, spoonful of coleslaw, not more than 60grams of snapper cut into wafer thin slices , with a wedge of lemon on the side. No thought given to portion size, no effort at presentation. It was what an eleven year old might serve up if they were short of time. That one plate said it all: lazy, disinterested and takes his job for granted. He needs to find something else. I absolutely recommend that you stay at the Opononi Hotel. Provided you eat elsewhere you will have a great time.

Perfect stay with a very caring, friendly crew!

Great place to stay! Highly recommend it. There is always room to improve, but thats life. Loved the peace and tranquility in the Hoki. You can still feel the old spirits there, good ones that remind you that life does not have to be always in the fast lane ..

While the staff were helpful it doesn't work well when one person has to cover the bar, office, phones and everything else when there are several guests wanting to check in

We first chose to stay at Opononi Hotel in 1972 on our honeymoon. This trip was a repeat journey to celebrate all those years that have passed since then. The location right on the waters edge is gorgeous. The rooms are well worn and decor in the hotel looks the same as our previous trip many years ago. But the young lad cooked a great meal at the pub, the music was old time, and staff worked hard to make us feel welcome once again.
