I somehow had booked for the night after the day our intended arrival. Though she was not expecting us, the manager, Mihi, quicly made some adjustments and welcomed my son and I in. Needless to say, my error was quickly, and unhestitaingly, managed by Mihi, and in we went. The Left Bank is a beautifully renovated very old building and the interior is absolutely beautiful. It was like being in a Victorian age bedroom with period furnishings! What a wonderful experience. Our car was locked inside a secure area which Mihi directed us to and again opened in the morning to recover our car. Could not have been more pleased with the stay, it was perfect!

Not a thing, delightful.

Background history on building was exciting, structure decor and details take you back to what nz use to have, beautiful. Staff was always available on hand when needed whether guidance nd attractions nearby . Room was immaculate comfortable and layout suitable for warm or cold weather. Our stay was relaxing, enjoyable and will definitely recommend for a stopover as there's so many options on hand to offer P.S. even our vehicle gets the best off road parking with the best security nz can offer. 10/10, Thank you Mihi nd husband, for making our once in a lifetime 4 day holiday in the Far North memorable and will always be treasured

This is the only place to stay In Kaikohe!! This is our 3rd stay at the Left Bank, we are keen cyclists and love the twin coast cycle ride and taking friends and family and we are always made to feel so welcome and looked after by the wonderful manager who consistently goes above and beyond for all guests! Beautiful rooms but it is the great service that adds so much to the Left Bank experience!

Nothing negative to say about this wonderful accommodation!

Terrific location in Kaikohe on the main street. Easy to find and run by a wonderful manager - Mihi. Nothing was too much trouble and she made us feel very welcome. There were secure facilities for our car and bikes (we were doing the Twin Coast Cycle trail).

Regrettably the cafe which was once part of the building is no longer operating but we were allowed to use it to have our own breakfast. Such a shame as there aren't many good food options in this small town.

Outstanding service and support. Delightfully refurbished hotel. Recommend highly, especially if you are planning to cycle the twin trail. The place is well set up for cyclists. Bikes have a secure shed and cars can be parked in lock up area. Manager is exceptionally helpful and happily accommodated all our requests.

This was a beautifully renovated bank made into a classy hotel. Sadly due to staff deficit and unfireseeable circumstances there was no restaurant operating , therefore no breakfast available which always makes it more difficult, however the hotel allowed guests to use a small kitchen and dining area which was good. The rooms and bathrooms were beautiful .

No hotel parking but safe locked parking available over the road for a small charge. No meals or restaurant.

Left bank was a beautifully restored commercial building, it had been finished to a high standard and with high ceilings and some fabulous woodwork trim. The bed was comfortable the shower had plenty of pressure. There was secure parking available The host was amazing, really welcoming and nothing was a problem.

Have no complaints at all.

Unfortunatley the hotel restaurant and bar was not open due to staff shortages, so the house manager made a small dining room table available for guests ,and supplied all the cutlery, plates etc to eat in with any takeaway. This was curcial because the dining options in kaikohe are very basic and limited. We drove to Pahia after the first night to find a restaurant as opposed to a very basic takeaway. The aircon was very quiet and efficicnet and was invaluable because you could expreince some traffic noise depending on where your room is situated. But it is a beautifully restored and furnished hotel with very high quality furniture, bedding etc.

It seemed to us that a simple breakfast could have been offered at very litle effort for guests as all the facilities were there. We found the fire doors were very noisy and wondered if they could be fitted with a soft close mechanism, it was difficult to come and go quietly.

We stayed in the historic cottage 8n the grounds. Roomy,, peaceful. Beautiful property, has fruit trees and a good sized lawn to relax in. Keith the manager was very helpful.

Kaikohe unfortunately has lost a lot of business and is a mere shadow of itself. The weekend we visited, the town seemed to be overrun with rampent youth with too much time on their hands roaming streets in gangs. Very sad.

We found the Left Bank a surprise. So surprising to have a Heritage Building in Kaikohe, and we wer very well looked after by our host. It was very generous of Keith to put us in THE COTTAGE, where we had access to the kitchen and could also sit outside and enjoy the simple garden.

There was no breakfast available but we could use the kitchen, and had tranported food so we were OK.
