On arrival the check in went smoothly. In the room there were no towells, or kettle? There were sachets of Coffee, Tea, sugar & milk creama. I went to make enquiries at reception they were checking in a large group. Close by I saw & went to the room-service laundry room, they quickly brought me what was needed, and apologized for the inconvenience. The room is dated as in previous comments, but it is clean, with clean sheets on the beds & very comfortable. Good reception on the TV. Shower altho dated was warm and had a strong water flow. Pool was clean, a little cold but was good enough for hubby to have a little dip. Efficient car parking space.
There is no restaurant here but they quickly recommended visiting Gateway Hotel next door, we went there for Breakfast & Lunch it was amazing at Gateway they had 2 local gentlemen singing with guitars, serenading the guests" just beautiful"
We requested a late check out till 5pm cost us $10 an hour $60 11am-5pm. At first when I asked reception for a late check out she said $10 an hour, I said ok, she then said oh no its $30 an hour cash??? Really?? She then said come back in the morning and check with reception???? which we did and were promptly told $10 an hour and can be paid via cash or credit card. We were given a receipt on request.
Situated 2nd Closest Hotel to the Airport. we had a rental car but it is in Walking Distance from the Gateway Hotel, and the Gateway Hotel is just across the road to the Airport and closer to the Airport than the Trans International Hotel.
We used Google Maps, to guide us to the Hotel, it rarely gets the destination wrong, but it did this time it guided us to a Hotel furtherest away from The Airport. So its not at The Big Red Maroon coloured Hotel, its in between & closer to The Gateway Hotel.
If you can afford the extra cost, then stay at The Gateway it has a beautiful flow there on entry. Plenty of car parking. Beautiful restaurant, ovely friendly attentive staff. The sour cream for the wedges tasted & looked like standard cream from a bottle? I advised the waitress she took the small dish away and came back with exactly the same thing??? They need to change their brand of sour cream, if that was indeed sour cream. Cost $91 NZD at Trans International and about double the amount at Gateway.
After checking out we went back nextdoor to Gateway to relax, be serenaded and wait for our late flight.
