"Loved our stay at the Copthorne. Breakfast was fantastic and room very clean. Excellent staff interactions. Will be back"

"Great place - we got the 2 bedroom suite. The balcony view was amazing, the kitchen with a full sized fridge freezer was very useful to us as we were travelling with kids. The beds were comfortable and the parking below was very easy to use. The suites are almost on the beach, a 1 min walk away from the playground and a takeaway, 3 mins walk to the woolworths and a 3 minute drive away from the other cafes, restaurants and the ferry. The only thing that would have pushed this to a full 5* review would be the property condition. While it was otherwise completely fine and generally clean, the windows and shower grout could have used some more attention. Otherwise a great stay for a milestone celebration vacation (with kids)."

"The Duke has a wonderful restaurant with great views of the bay. Such a pretty spot. "

"This a great hotel with lush tropical gardens, private patios, comfortable beds and everything needed. Handy to the beach too. "

"⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5 – Exceptional Stay in Beautiful Bay of Islands! We recently spent four nights at this stunning property in Russell, New Zealand, and everything about our stay was absolutely perfect. From the moment we arrived, the service was outstanding—warm, welcoming, and attentive without being intrusive. The facilities were top-notch: clean, modern, and incredibly comfortable. Whether we were relaxing in our villa, enjoying the scenic surroundings, or taking advantage of the amenities, everything was impeccably maintained and thoughtfully designed. What really stood out was the staff—they went above and beyond to ensure our stay was memorable. Friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely caring, they made us feel right at home. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to unwind and explore the beauty of New Zealand North Island. Highly recommended, and we can’t wait to return!"

"An excellent property in the heart of Russell."

"The location, just a block from the harbor, was excellent. The room was spacious, and the kitchenette well stocked. The decor was not fancy, but we were comfortable and felt at home, which helped make our stay excellent."
