    Metour.it is committed to offering travelers authentic and unforgettable experiences. As a leading trusted online travel agency, we stand out for our dedication to quality, safety and customer satisfaction. Every destination, package and service offered has been carefully selected to ensure an unparalleled travel experience. Furthermore, our expert team is always on hand to assist you at every stage of your journey, ensuring that every detail is taken care of to perfection.
  • Are the prices always the same even if the date changes?
    Prices vary based on various factors which may be seasonal, day of the week, occupancy status of the hotel, promotions, particular fairs in the city and more. The advice, to see the prices, is to enter the dates of your stay and make your own comparisons.
  • Is breakfast always included?
    No, it depends on the rate and whether the structure is organized to offer it or not. Check carefully before booking what is included and what is not and what type of service is offered.
  • Can I make special requests?
    Of course, when booking you will have a field where you can write directly to the property and make your requests. These will be evaluated by the Hotel who will respond directly to you. MeTour is not responsible in this decision-making process.
  • What types of beds will I find in the room I booked?
    The type of bed is usually specified in the room sheet. If you have any special requests or needs you can indicate them at the time of booking by writing them in the "special requests" field which will be forwarded directly to the property. In this process MeTour is not responsible.
  • What is Paga in Structural and what are Payment Pre-Authorisations?
    When you book, some facilities offer the possibility of paying directly at the facility. In these cases you will simply be asked to insert your credit (or debit) card to guarantee the booking, but without any charge. The sum will be taken from your credit card only in the cases provided for by the policies and conditions relating to your booking. In other cases, when the Partner does not adopt automatic availability and booking systems, but confirms reservations "manually", then you will be asked to insert your credit (or debit) card to guarantee the reservation, and then be directly charged at the same time as the Partner confirms the booking (within 24-48 hours). At that moment you will receive an email with the booking confirmation and payment.
  • How do I know if my card has been pre-authorized?
    By consulting your credit card balance you will see that your available balance will be temporarily reduced by the amount of your booking. In other cases and depending on the policy of your credit card circuit, you may also find an entry in the monthly summary of card movements: "pending operation". The pre-authorization block, depending on the situation, will be maintained according to the policies and terms and conditions of what has been booked.
  • How can I cancel or change my booking?
    Easy, enter the customer area with your credentials and from there you can modify or cancel your booking. Remember that changing dates or canceling with a refund request depends on the rate you chose when booking.
  • Can I transfer my reservation to another person?
    For this request, contact the property directly which may have a specific policy in this regard or may need further data on the person to whom you want to transfer the booking.
  • How can I get help with my booking?
    Enter the customer area with your credentials and from there you can contact us or by writing through our contact form specifying your booking number and the reason for the contact request. We recommend that you also leave a telephone number where you can be reached in case of need.
  • Are there taxes, local charges or extras to be paid directly on site?
    They are normally clearly indicated in the property sheet or added during the booking phase depending on local regulations or the facility's policies. But even if not clearly indicated, payments may be requested directly to the facility for any tourist taxes, local charges or extras not included in the rate. The advice is to read everything carefully before booking or writing to us through our contact form.
  • Are small pets allowed?
    It is often clearly stated in the property sheet and for this reason we invite you to carefully read their policies. Where not indicated, we invite you to contact us through our contact form for more information.

  • Covid 19 Reservations/Cancellations/Changes of Dates/Refunds:
  • For reservations made we advise you to keep in mind the risk related to Coronavirus (COVID-19) and related government measures. If you book a rate that is not “flexible” or “non-cancellable” or “non-changeable”, you may not be entitled to a refund in the event of cancellation or to a refund. Any requests for cancellation or date changes will be handled based on the policy of the rate chosen at the time of booking and any consumer protection laws.

    MeTour encourages its Partners to follow a careful prevention policy towards the Covid-19 pandemic, promoting those structures with strict sanitization and control protocols and monitors any contagion situations by blocking reservations towards those structures or places that are particularly affected. However, since we cannot intervene directly on the structures, which are independent from MeTour, the advice is to check whether there are travel restrictions in place before booking and reaching the structure. In fact, travel may only be authorized for specific reasons and, in particular, travel for tourist purposes may not be permitted. We recommend that you visit the government websites of the various countries in the world of destination, the website of the WHO (World Health Organization) and local government bodies, official information sites and, last but not least, the website of the Booked Facilities. . MeTour is not responsible for the content of the aforementioned sites, but recommends consulting news that is as up to date as possible.

Excellent venue for events
We have just had my Nanas birthday here and it was an excellent event. Pau and the team were so helpful and the food and service was 10/10. They made it easy to cater for a 100 people ranging from teens to 90’s. It is definitely somewhere I recommend going for events

Stay at settlers
Please look after Pau the same way she looks after us! She is amazing.She makes mine and the boys stay very good. Pretty much the only reason we come back is cos of her. The food is yum, portions could be bit more for us though as some of the boys don't come breakfast yet we are still charged for it, but if we ask for extra food they don't really give it cos it aint in the "budget" of $110 that our company pays for food everyday.

GREAT SERVICE
Settlers is a great place to come, being from Fulton Hogan the only reason why I suggest to my boss we stay here is because they do aim to take care of you. Pau in the kitchen really does make sure we are looked after from the moment we step through the door, making sure our stay is comfortable and we are well fed!
Will be back!!

Staff were brilliant
There's no escaping that this is an older hotel. Forget that though and enjoy the warm and friendly service.

Our room was impeccably clean and staff were so accommodating when we said our Grandson (3) was having a sleepover. We were able to choose a room service (or not) over our stay which was great for saving on unnecessary daily linen changes.

The hotel restaurant offers breakfast ( continental or cooked) and the dinner we had on site was beautiful.

We have rebooked already for an overnight stay in a couple of weeks.

Review dated 22 Dic 2018
Für eine Übernachtung sehr gut, 20 Minuten Fußweg in die Stadt, ruhige Lage.
Für eine Nacht ist das Discovery Settlers Hotel o. k.. Unser Zimmer war sauber und mit den üblichen Ausstattungsgegenständen wie Kühlschrank und Wasserkocher versehen. Die Dusche ist o. k. nur der Duschkopf könnte ein wenig höher angebracht sein, so dass man sich auch entsprechend komplett darunter stellen kann, da er nicht mobil in die Hand genommen werden kann. Das Hotel verfügt auch über einen Pool. Diesen hatten wir allerdings erst zu spät entdeckt und wurden leider auch beim Check in nicht darauf hingewiesen - Pool wirkte sehr alt und dreckig und das Wasser abgestanden. Ansonsten war es sehr leer in dem Hotel. Wir konnten sehr ruhig schlafen. Parkplätze direkt am Zimmer verfügbar. Alles im allem für eine Übernachtung in Ordnung. Auch der Fußweg mit circa 20 Minuten zum Hafen und in die City von Whangarei ist völlig o. k. und man kann gut an der Straße entlang laufen. Für einen Zwischenstopp sehr geeignet. Preisleistung in Ordnung. Man sollte keine riesigen Erwartungen haben. Reine Übernachtungslokalität. Angrenzendes Restaurant haben wir nicht getestet - Abendessen und Frühstück dort möglich.

Muy lindo hotel
Todo estuvo genial, el lugar está en una buena zona, bien diagramado, con estacionamiento, wifi y varios servicios. Se puede reservar con desayuno incluido (completo y rico) y el restaurant también es lindo. Posee piscina. Lo recomiendo y volvería sin dudarlo!
Hi Mentaaah, Thanks for the comments. Rgds Chris

Buona soluzione per una notte
L'aspetto esterno è quello di un tradizionale motel di strada degli anni 80. La reception non è nulla di partiolare ma lo staff è sorridente e disponibile.
La stanza all'interno era stata recentemente ristrutturata e benchè gli spazi non siano enormi, l'abbiamo trovata confortevole e utile. Il wi-fi è ottimo e gratuito non chè di facile accesso.
Decisamente una struttura con un adeguato rapporto qualità-prezzo.

A éviter
Hotel sans ascenseur, dont les chambres ont été refaites il y a peu mais en oubliant de changer les fenêtres qui ne sont pas hermétiques et qui laissent a la fois passer le froid mais aussi le bruit de la rue très passante qui le longe. En même temps aucun chauffage n'est prévu, nous avons dormi habillé ! scandaleux
Cher pour le niveau de commodité

Zimmer fühlen sich an wie Kaninchenställe
Dies war bisher das schlechteste Hotel auf unserer bisher 5wöchigen Reise. Nichts was in der Beschreibung stand stimmte. Z.B. ist die Stadtmarina, die um die Ecke sein soll, 1 km entfernt, die Innenstadt gleich weit, das alles an einer dicht befahrenen Straße entlang. Das Badezimmer ist so eng, dass man beim Abtrocknen die Ztoilette gleich mit putzt. Apropos Putzen, damit nimmt man es auch nicht so genau - okay in einem alterwürdigen Gebäude dürfen Spinnweben auch nicht fehlen. Ein wenig mehr Freundlichkeit würde dem Personal gut zu Gesicht stehen.

Sympa, mais...
De passage dans la ville nous avons séjourné une nuit dans ce motel. La malchance a fait que ce soir là un mariage était organisé dans l'établissement et donc, le restaurant était fermé.

Au niveau de la situation il se trouve a côté d'un petit lac. A environ 15 minutes a pied de la ville.

Le personnel est sympathique et attentionné. (Comme a peu près partout dans le pays).

La chambre était relativement petite mais suffisante.

Les points négatifs étaient l'épaisseur des murs (on entend les voisins rires dans la chambre d'à côté jusqu'à 3h du matin !!). Et le frigo un peu trop bruyant.

Sehr schönes Hotel
Wir hatten sehr schöne Zimmer mit allem was man braucht um sich wohl zu fühlen. Würden hier wieder übernachten! In nur 5 Min. ist man bei tollen Restaurants. Wir haben im Robbies Hammer Restaurant gegessen, was sehr zu Empfehlen ist.
Vielen dank fur ihre positive kritik and thank you for your time to write a review, we hope to welcome you back one day to Discovery Settlers Hotel in Whangarei. Auf Wiedersehen! Kind regards, Joan

Alt, abgelebt und zu teuer.
Altes,schäbiges Zimmer.
Einrichtung mit sehr deutlichen Gebrauchsspuren,Löcher in der Bettdecke,kaputte Lehnen am Sessel,schmutzige Überdecke,schmutziger Vorhang.
Extremer Geruch (vermodert).
Personal war leider auch nicht wirklich freundlich.

Allerdings sonst sauber,
Dusche einfach, aber mit gutem Wasserdruck.
Zimmer mit 119$ zu teuer.
