Theatre Royal Hotel

Oozing with style , We recently stayed here overnight on the way through to Greymouth on a Cycle Journeys Tour. The accommodation was fantastic large cabins (we had a 2 bedroom cabin) . Comfortable beds , lovely spacious bathrooms with a bath tub. Our cabin had a verandah with outdoor seating. There was numerous Ebike charging sheds that are secure & a laundry. We also had a few beers at the hotel very happy with cold beer Heineken on tap & friendly staff. Our dinner was great & the restaurant was pretty full so I recommend booking in advance. Theres a piano in the hotel & we were fortunate enough to have some music throughout our dinner. There’s plenty of outdoor seating for you to enjoy. Breakfast in the morning was just what you need before setting off on the bike. The same as anywhere on the west Coast Trail take plenty of sand fly repellant for outdoors. The only thing to mention is that you have to drag or carry your bag through deep gravel to your cabin if you don’t have a car. (We probably could’ve asked for staff to deliver it in the bus but we didn’t). Highly recommended.

Absolutely Brilliant. Accommodation is fabulous value. Huge rooms, spotlessly clean. Staff are great. Extremely helpful. Sinny the waitress/barmaid/comedian is a treasure and the whitebait fritters are the best - and huge! Don’t change anything.

Stayed here on a stopover during my Great Wilderness Trail ride. Very quaint and super comfortable hotel. Although the restaurant was closed on that day they took the trouble to bake a couple of pizzas for me and my fellow rider due to limited dining options in town. Service was friendly and warm, it's just like coming home. The cottage we stayed in was goodly sized and comfortable. Highly recommended.

We enjoyed such a lovely stay at The Theatre Royal, Kūmara. We were 2 adults + 2 young kids and the playground in the pub's garden was an added bonus. The hotel has been renovated to a beautiful standard and we stayed in Mary's Cottage, directly across the road - lovely and warm! Very quaint and charming. The meals on offer were delicious and hearty. The continental breakfast was delightful too! Proper West Coast hospitality. Thank you for such a memorable stay

We reached here on a stormy day and the roads were blocked due to the storm. We came to the reception desk here and the manager was very helpful and provided all the required help to us. Her politeness and cooperation was very heartwarming. Thank you for giving us a memorable time.

We loved our stay at the Theatre Royal. The fittings and furnishings are so authentic and fit the era of the hotel. Beautifully done. Lovely warm room and comfortable bed. Food delicious both in the pub and our breakfast. Staff very friendly and helpful. Would like to stay again and will definitely recommend to friends and family.

A wonderful mini-break with our 86 year old mum. We stayed in the old bank apartment (3 of us). She loved the four poster bed! Everyone was very friendly and hospitable and then had a lovely trip back to Christchurch on the train the next day.

Loved our stay at the Theatre Royal. We were so made to feel welcome, staff were fantastic, helpful, friendly and prepared to take the extra time to have a chat. Loved the quirkiness of the decor and as a history buff enjoyed the atmosphere both at the hotel and across the road at the historical info signs. Meals were yummy, it was lovely to sit in front of the fire and just relax with the locals. Liked the fact that we were just that little bit out of Greymouth and yet central to local sights, we could have to chosen to dine in Greymouth on our second night but why would we when we felt so relaxed at the Hotel. Thoroughly recommend you stay here and experience the quintessential West Coast hospitality.

This hotel is adorable. Has colonial charm, the dinner at the restaurant was delicious, the staff just lovely. It's truly charming, but the beds! The beds are seriously too soft and lumpy. Not sure if theyvare from the 1809's but please, BUY NEW BEDS PLEASE.
