Top Esplanade Scenic Railway Hotel Reviews

Distinction Coachman Hotel, Palmerston North

Distinction Coachman Hotel, Palmerston North

8/10 Good
"The old man who welcomed us was so nice and friendly and helpful! Definitely made us feel more relaxed as we arrived relatively late at night. Basic hotel amenities, good for a stopover before we go on our way the next day. Bed seems to be in need for a change. Was sinking into the center. Me and my wife keep getting stuck in the center. TV console seems like on the brink of breaking. But otherwise, very clean old (i assumed from the decor) hotel."
