Hokitika has been named the most welcoming town in NZ in Booking.com's 10th annual Traveller Review Awards.
Would be keen to hear from those who live there or who have visited whether they think the town really is exceptionally friendly. What makes it a welcoming place, or otherwise? Were there any cafes, restaurants, shops or other places you received a particularly warm welcome?
Lake Tekapo and Oamaru came in second and third place respectively, followed by Cambridge, Picton, Invercargill, Martinborough, Kerikeri and Palmerston North. Would also love to hear from you if you have thoughts on these places. Please include 'NFP' (not for publication) in your comment if you don't want it to appear in a travel article.
Thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts?

Rotomairewhenua, also known as Blue Lake, about 30 kilometres southwest of St Arnaud, has the clearest recorded natural freshwater in the world. DOC warden Kylie Batt is the lake's new guardian, with a big job ahead as microscopic algae "lake snot" has been found there this summer.

I maintain a personal blog and local website about Marlborough. (Sometimes I have people think I'm the Marlborough Express, as they don't think an individual could write so much 😀, or that I'm funded by MDC. I'm not.)

Last week a former journalist contacted me with an offer to provide some content about local history. Then things got interesting in an unexpected way.
