The beds were amazing so comfortable as well as the pillows, staff were fun and friendly and very accommodating. Food and meals were great
This hotel is family owned and run by the same family for many years and it shows in the hands on attention to the property and engagement with guests. The rooms are comfortable, spacious, well maintained and clean. Bar and restaurant are great. The staff are excellent. I have no hesitation in recommending this to anyone looking to stay in the Greymouth area.

Very nice apartment outside of Greymouth
Really nice apartment (executive suite) with a spacious living/kitchen area, spacious bedroom and large bathroom. Staff were very helpful and were able to pick us up from the Greymouth station. Hotel is outside of Greymouth though, so probably better if you have a car. If you don't have a car (which we didn't), there is still a nice beach to walk on and see a stunning sunset and you may be able to arrange something with the hotel in terms of transport. There is also a restaurant/bar at the hotel which is very convenient.

Convient Paroa Hotel for West Coast S. Island NZ
The Paroa Hotel was a short walk to the beach and had a great restaurant next door (within the same establishment of the hotel). Our room was huge and beautiful with a nice place to sit outside on a deck, with a view of the garden, not the ocean. It was perfect for our one night stay while driving the west coast of the south island. My only complaint is that they only had instant coffee in the room. Every other hotel we have stayed at in New Zealand had coffee for the provided French press or an espresso machine. It worked out ok since I could walk to the restaurant next door for my morning java. This hotel wasn't in walking distance to much else besides the beach and restaurant, but for us that was just fine!

Great place in Poroa
Our stay was great! The staff were so accommodating! We got into town around 7:00 and everything we needed was right there. A great restaurant with excellent food and affordable prices! The hotel was a 3 minute walk from the beach so we enjoyed a walk on the beach after dinner. Bed was comfortable. Would stay again if in the area!

The owners and staff were so friendly. It seemed like a place where New Zealanders, and not just tourists, were likely to stay. The hotel is well-located for trips to Paparoa National Park and Hokitika, and there's a two minute walk to a beach where you can try your luck finding paunamu and penguins.

Everything ok except the food in the restaurant. Did not have to use the restaurant so perhaps not fair to include it in the comment

There was nothing really 'special' about the place.
the staff were friendly, and the room was clean and tidy and in good condition, as was the rest of the property.
there is a good restaurant/ bar on site and its a short walk to the beach.

Paroa Hotel is an amazing place and experience. Bernie (son of founding owners) has now turned it over to his son and daughter. He is fun to talk to and tends the bar at night. The quality of the hotel construction is top notch. Food at their restaurant (both breakfast and dinner) was nothing short of amazing and world class. Lovely beach behind the hotel. Close jumping off point for many South Island NZ adventures. We can't wait to return to stay longer. This family owned place really knows hospitality. LOVED the Paroa hotel,
