Detailed Reviews
Was in Upoer Hutt for a seminar which was located at the local racetrack. Plenty of food centered around a continental breakfast. 10 minutes walk to the station with a few fast food located across the road as well as an Indian takeaway. Nice and quite with satellite TV and clean.

If you are wanting to stay around Upper Hutt this is the place to stay. Excellent rooms which are well equipped, very clean and tidy. Great value for money. Close to local shops and an easy trip into Petone or even Wellington.

We were looking for accommodation for a family weekend event and came across the Matahari. Having been in the accommodation business for years I’m always a bit sceptical of places but we were extremely pleased with this choice. The units themselves are immaculate, the initial impact from outside is not the best but the minute the door opens that changes. Functional and incredibly clean throughout. We will be back for sure.

Since they are not taking our calls and the email address on their website is now bouncing, I am putting this here as a warning to others. I booked on Matahari's website for the 2 bedroom apartment and 3 bedroom villa which were both available for the dates I selected. After completing the online booking form, I recieved a message that confirmation will be provided within 24hours. No confirmation email was provided and after waiting 2 days, we called them directly to check. We were told that the booking was confirmed and an email would be sent shortly with confirmation. Soon after we received an email saying there is no availability of rooms. Why tell someone a booking is confirmed if its not. They have also taken a preauthorisation on my visa card which should not have happened if the rooms were not available at the time of my booking. Hope this does not happen to others.

Unfortunately we only had a one night stay at this motel as it is definetly worth staying longer. We had a one bedroom unit that really felt like a small home.There was a large flat screen tv in the living room and a washing machine in the kitchen which is great if you have to do a load of laundry.There is no dryer though so you will have to dry the clothes in the bathroom or drape them across the garden furniture out back. The furniture of our unit was above average as was the sleep quality of the bed (nice linens). Nice bathroom as well. Service from the front desk was friendly and very efficient. There is easy parking directly in front of the units. WiFi was free but the speed was insufficient to stream movies.There are also a number of restaurants in walking distance. Highly recommended!

This place is amazing it’s a home away from home with all the comforts of being at home facilities modern and clean and well maintained . I quiet often stay here thru work and as always it’s enjoyable and comfortable it’s always a great distraction from living out of a suit case and I’m always looking forward to my next trip down. The hosts are very welcoming and kind always a welcoming smile and up for a friendly chat and always going beyond the port of call to make your stay that much better. Much recommend

We recently stayed at the Matahari B&B in Upper Hutt for 5 nights while attending our sons wedding. We were offered the three bedroom, three bathroom 'villa' given that there were 5 of us requiring accommodation. We had a fantastic stay and it was perfect in every way for up to 6 guests. The owner was great as was the cleanliness and presentation of the accommodation. Breakfast was also provided at no extra charge. All in all an excellent place to stay. Very highly recommended +++++ Kiwis on Tour
