Swiss Chalet Motel Paihia

In central Paihia, we offer the ultimate 4-star motel accommodation in the beautiful Bay of Islands, New Zealand. Our modern, fully self-contained units sleep 1-10 people, some have balconies with stunning sea views and are only metres from Paihia waterfront. The prime central location places you within 1 minute's walk from Paihia wharf, beach, shops and cafes. The many exciting attractions and activities on offer around the Bay are at your feet. We're also a booking agent for Bay of Islands' major trips and tours.
Our unique units range from studios to 5-bedroom units, which sleep from 2-10 people. Some of the rooms at Swiss Chalet Lodge Motel have spa baths and there is a very private, fully self-contained modern studio unit in an adjoining complex.
Swiss Chalet Lodge Motel is 100% NZ owned and operated. Your hosts Phil and Maureen offer you a warm welcome and great service.
