Got a great recommendation on where to have dinner, Donegal House. I generally don’t enjoy tourist towns but Kaikoura is an exception. When you book a room, check out its dimensions. ##### CAMPBELL Stayed 1 night in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sarah Nov 21, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great place to stay Lovely heritage building on the outskirts of town with great views of the bay.
