This was our 8th stay at the Waitangi Copthorne, we usually go once a year and for the same reason, it is close to home while still feeling like you are on holiday, our children love the pool area and the team are always friendly.

Great location, but tired.
Great location by the water, but room and bathroom are in need of a refresh. Quite a lot of mould in the shower. Towels were stained and old. One face cloth was grey and my daughter found a towel with make up all over it.

The location is lovely and the grounds are gorgeous. The pool is lovely (but not heated). The rooms were fine, the bathroom was dated and fush was fiddly. Overall a good place to stay for a family holiday.
Nicky, 4-night trip

Josh and the the lady on the desk when we arrived were excellent. The bed was clean but the room and overall facility are tired and worn. The shower curtain had some black mold. The restaurant staff was hit and miss.

Could be fantastic but old and dates now. Quiet location, nice pool area but freezing cold. Rooms, hallway tired. Breakfast basic but standard selection Again a little money spent could make this great. Rooms upstairs loud if you are on the ground floor I was woken at 4am and 6am. A gym would be great too

Beautiful 2 night stay
We had a spectacular 2 night stay over Matariki weekend. Seaside room with stunning views of the well kept grounds. We also had food and drinks from the cafe while sitting out by the pool which was all great and staff were all very accommodating.
