We had two nights at the Scenic. We had a room in the 200s which is “around the back” but none the worse for that. Good room – all we needed was there (although the minibar looked expensive). With other things to do we only had breakfast there which was an excellent buffet system; Continental breakfast for the abstemious and...

The only downside to the hotel is that it is not by the beach and that you do not have the water view.
Rooms are ok for the price.

Thank you for your review. The hotel has a reputation of being set in quiet gardens away from the hussle & bussle of the beach strip. We look forward to seeing again if you ever visit the bay of Islands.

We stayed two nights. The beds were comfy, blankets a little worn, but nice. We did have A/C, but didn't really need it. Large room, very short walk, 1/2 block to great beach and activity center. Facility has washer and dryer which was a nice relief from laundry service bills. Downside was dark room, no safe or safety latch on...

Thank you also for your review. The A/C rooms are having all new bedding commissioned in March with also a view to improve lighting. There are Safety Deposit facilities located at reception. Regards

We stayed here during the New Year break and were happy enough with the place.
The rooms are spacious, clean and well equipped. The rooms are all wireless equipped and the speed is pretty quick, although New Zealand is one of the few places left in the world who charge ridiculous amounts for wireless access.
The hotel is a short...

The Scenic hotel in Pahia is okay, but I've seen better places in this price range. It could do with some upgrading.
The hotel staff is very nice and helpfull. The room was nice and spacious, we had a Superior room. The ceiling fan was good, and a lot better than most AC's.
The bed was a bit worn, a...

Thank you for your comments. The superior rooms have been earmarked for a refurbishment which includes new beds! We have not had any comments about the noise of the bathroom fans, however we weill certainly be looking into this matter. Regards

Just home from two enjoyable nights at the Paihia Scenic. Our room was a two bedroomed loft style - bedroom/lounge and bathroom downstairs, bedroom upstairs. Our room was not airconditioned but lots of windows and ceiling fan, also a standup fan to provide coolness. The rooms were exceptionally quiet, clean and well appointed. Modern furnishing and a balcony looking out...

Thank you for your great comments. We certainly hope you can come up from Auckland again and enjoy another relaxing visit to the hotel. Regards

We stayed two nights during summer 2010, and we had a great time there. The rooms were clean, nice and the beds comfortable. The hotel isn't located in the centre of the village, nor close to the sea (although not more than 5 minutes walk), and can be a little difficult to find when arriving by car in Paihia after...

It is always pleasing to note that our staff have gone out of their way to help guests in whatever situation they find themselves in. In this case with dining.
Would be happy to host you again. Regards

We stayed for two nights Jan 7 to 9 with our family of four. Check in was good. Nice staff. The room was spacious and well equipped with all you needed. Bad weather hampered our stay but it was still a nice hotel. Due to the rain all off the umbrellas had been taken by other guests but when i...

Booked last minute one deluxe room with 2 queen sized beds for 2 nights. Room was fine, clean with plenty of space. Just a few things missing-no safe, no air con(we thought the deluxe had air con but you need the superior for this facility apparently). We were on a room only basis ,so can't comment on the food. Position...

From check in to check out including breakfast and...
