Top Rawhiti Hotel Reviews

The Duke of Marlborough Hotel

The Duke of Marlborough Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"Staying at the Duke is an amazing experience. One of New Zealand’s oldest pubs on the beachfront in one of New Zealand’s oldest town. Well maintained and spotless rooms, ours had a great balcony - just the place for a G&T - before a leisurely dinner on the terrace looking out directly over the bay - with an excellent food and wine menu. Helpful, knowledgeable staff and great transport options add to the experience - free parking behind the pub or frequent passengers ferry services across the bay from Paihia. And all pretty affordable given the venue and the location."
