An honest and authentic Kiwi Pub.
This is an authentic and honest Kiwi pub that reminded me of the New Zealand that I lived in as a child. The owners were warm and welcoming people and I enjoyed my stay.

Cosy, affordable, old-fashioned pub stay, close to Hokitika town and short drive from Hokitika Gorge
Cosy old fashioned pub atmosphere, decent value for money for the type of accommodation it is. Friendly staff, and choice of dinner in the pub or make your own with the guest kitchen facilities. Would happily stay there…

A good choice for us as the hotel is on the Wilderness Trail.
OK the pub is old but the owners keep it very clean and tidy.
The pub meals were excellent.
The owners lent us an extention cord to charge our bike batteries and a hose to clean the bikes.
We enjoyed our two night…

That the step-free room is actually free on your dates, and whether it is a roll-in shower or a bath, which the listing never says.
The pet fee and any size limit, which is where these bookings usually come apart.
Whether there is room for a pickup, a trailer or a van, not just a car.
Whether the rate moves for your dates, and what it includes.
What the property actually charges at the desk on top of the rate.

Questions about Kaniere Pub

What time is check-in and check-out at Kaniere Pub?

Check-in is from 4:00 PM. Check-out is by 10:00 AM. If you're arriving late, tell us and we'll ask the property to hold the room.

Does Kaniere Pub allow pets?

No — the property states that pets are not allowed.

Is there parking at Kaniere Pub?

Yes — the property states that parking on site is free. Whether a space can be reserved in advance varies, so we check it against your dates.

Does Kaniere Pub have Wi-Fi?

Yes — internet access is listed among the property's facilities.

Does Kaniere Pub have wheelchair accessible rooms?

The property lists step-free or accessible facilities. That flag is the one least able to settle the question: a hotel can carry it and still have a step at the entrance, or a bath rather than a roll-in shower, and it does not say whether the accessible room is free on your dates. Tell us what you need and we'll ask the property directly rather than reading you the flag.

How do I book Kaniere Pub?

Put your dates in above and book online, or call (888) 789-8585 and we'll do it for you — including things a booking form can't handle, like a block of rooms, a monthly rate or an invoice for your employer.
