Great Places to Stay

Whether you're looking for a luxury hotel, a family motel, a budget backpacker, a homely bed & breakfast, a holiday home or a spacious holiday park, the Qualmark© identifies quality assured accommodation suitable for any type of traveller.

Accommodation providers have undergone a rigorous assessment and licensing process to become part of the Qualmark licensing system. They will meet your essential requirements of cleanliness, safety, security and comfort; and offer a range and quality of services appropriate to their star grade.

The star grading and classification system applies to accommodation. The Qualmark© gives you details on both the accommodation category and their star rating.

As well as many independent properties from across the country, some of New Zealand's leading accommodation groups make Qualmark grading a requirement for their members.

• Heritage & Character Inns - includes guest and hosted properties
