kingsgate hotel greymouth

Kingsgate Hotel Greymouth is a welcoming 3.5 star hotel in the centre of Greymouth virtually on the Grey River. It is in the centre of town, just a kilometre from the terminus for the world famous Tranz-Alpine train, which connects it to Christchurch. Greymouth is about the centre of a 500 kilometre narrow strip of land wedged between the Southern Alps and the pounding Tasman Sea on the west coast of the South Island. The area boomed with the discovery of gold in 1864 and retains some of the Irish and Irish/Australian influence brought with them by miners.

The 100 room hotel is an ideal base for exploring the west coast with its ancient forests; wild rivers and long abandoned gold mining towns. Comfortable, warm and tastefully decorated, the hotel's rooms all have central heating, electric blankets, mini bars, Sky television and tea and coffee making facilities.

Services include a free shuttle service to the local golf course and a couple of major points of interest, The hotel provides free parking, and can arrange babysitting, dry cleaning and laundry. It has 4 well-equipped conference rooms.

Albert's Restaurant opens for breakfast from 7am to 10am, and dinner from 6pm to 9.30pm daily.
