A visit to Greymouth wouldn't be complete without staying in one of the town's landmark hotels. The Recreation Hotel has been catering for visitors to the area for over 100 years and prides itself on the genuine West Coast welcome it offers.

The Rec is a one-stop destination - arrive and put your feet up without a care in the world. There are all the facilities you could possibly wish for, and at a surprisingly affordable cost.

Your hosts, Linda and Mark Connors, pride themselves in providing guests with comfortable and affordable accommodation which will make your stay in the historic Greymouth town memorable.

Separate from the main hotel, restaurant and bar are 30 self-contained, double-glazed studio units. With their secluded location off the main highway, these units offer tranquillity, but at the same time provide all the comforts you expect.

There are a variety of options to suit every need. Ten of the units contain a double and single bed, 13 units have twin single beds, and three have a double bed. For families with younger children, there are four larger units which have a double and two single beds.
