Theatre Royal Hotel

The service was excellent throughout our stay. The food at the hotel was delicious and beautifully presented. We rented the villa for 8 people, and when we arrived, the house was warm and cozy, with everything we needed. Overall, we had a fantastic experience, and we truly appreciated the attention to detail and the warm welcome. Thank you so much for making our stay so enjoyable!

Such a lovely historic hotel! The hotel is kept in immaculate condition and my suite, Annie’s room was cosy, comfortable and very quaint. The staff were fantastic and really went the extra mile to make sure I was comfortable and very well looked after. I had lunch and dinner in the hotel and the food and hospitality was excellent! The next morning I had the continental breakfast - which was perfect. I recommend Theatre Royal Hotel highly and will look forward to staying again :)

It was a privilege to be able to stay in a beautifully restored building that is part of New Zealand's gold mining history. Thank you Kerrie and Mark. We loved the antiques and the rich late 1800s decor of our room (Ottos) with its super comfy tall brass bedstead and luxurious linens. The contemporary ensuite was also sympathetically outfitted and with a great shower. The upstairs guest lounge was a little haven. A very substantial continental breakfast was included in our tariff. Our group also enjoyed a top notch meal in the restaurant and my husband enjoyed the packed lunch you provided the next day on the Wilderness Trail. Secure bike storage and a sunny bar terrace rounded out a thoroughly great and unique experience.

Loved this awesome historical place, featuring a fully equipped bungalow with a lovely terrace and a quiet garden view. The breakfast was decent, though limited to a continental selection. As for dinner at the restaurant, it was okay - not the best fish and chips we’ve had, but still enjoyable.

It was very cool staying in an old historic hotel!||We stayed in one of the historic suites in the building labeled "Bank of New Zealand". The large suite was filled with antiques, which was very fitting and cool, and had a small fridge (although the freezer compartment would not freeze more than one small tray of small ice cubes) and a small microwave.||The draperies are very thick old velvet curtains, and the thick carpet is also indicative of a historic hotel, thus, it smelled moldy when we entered. We did get used to the smell, but definitely noticed it each time that we left and returned to the room. Also, the wrought-iron chairs on the back deck were nice, but one of the two was rusting.||The bed was fine and we got a decent night's sleep.|If you want to stay in an authentic historic hotel, and do not need "luxury" accommodations, The Theatre Royal would be a good place for you.

We stayed as a group of 12. A couple in each of the cottages. These cottages can sleep 4. There were twin beds in the bedroom and a king bed in the living room. (2 singles joined). |Bathroom clean and well supplied with towels. A lovely bath was a nice surprise. Mini fridge and microwave. Well stocked with crockery. Guest laundry. |We enjoyed a lovely meal at the restaurant. Recommend.

Stayed at this incrediable hotel on our way to complete the Wilderness Trail. Highly rate; rooms amazing, clean, great food, fanatastic staff, incrediable Hotel history and the area. Kumara is full of interesting tails and historic connections. It is worth a visit, have lunch or an evening meal or even better stay, you will love the whole experience. The Wilderness Trail heading into Winter is also highly recommended if you can be flexible around the weather. We had perfect calm, sunny days, no mosquito's very few people - perfect riding. Staying at hotels as the Theatre Royal made our trip so much more interesting - loved it all

Stayed one night on my 3 day west coast whizz through - awesome little place, full of history, and the 'town' also :D Loved the way the hotel had been restored, and how it showcased the history of the town. The character of the rooms was great, food was great, staff were really friendly (and great, :) )and will definitely make a stay there on the longer version of the west coast trip I'm planning for next time. 5 stars!!
