Summary: At the time of writing, this hotel has a 9.2 on Expedia. That is truly absurd.
This hotel is old (they don’t call it “historic” for nothing) and run down (featuring peeling wallpaper, a saggy matress, threadbare carpet and a kitchen that looks like it was built in the 80s). Making things worse, there is literally not a single thing of interest in Kumara (it only exists because it is a stop on the West Coast Wilderness Trail). Unless you’re using this hotel as a way to break your cycle trip, I see no reason to stay here.

Summary: I stayed alone for two days. The check-in process was smooth, and the room was clean. However, the room was small and there was no desk suitable for working, so I used my laptop on a shared table. Overall, I think it passes the mark.

Summary: Check in was easy & chatty. Asked us if we'd like to dine with them - check in is at the local pub - so an easy YES. Meal was great, accommodation across the road at a renovated home into bed sits was perfect. They had their own ensuites, so privacy was no issue.

Summary: Delightful little cottage, with everything we needed, could only have been better if the laundry had had a dryer.

Summary: Old fashioned fixtures and furniture - exactly as you'd expect in a Historic Cottage including old style teacups. Had walk-in robe and good size ensuite - TV to share in lounge and full cooking facilites including stove, microwave and full-size share refridgerator. We took the time and sat on the veranda. The vacant lot next door holds multiple information signs on Kumara, the area, its pioneers (all sorts). Nice small walk up and down the street with other info signs at different points of historical interest.
