If staying in Hamilton for whatever reason (for us going to Matamata for Hobbiton and Waitomo for glowworms), Atrium on Ulster is the only refuge you need. Conveniently located near downtown and the highways, impeccable cleanliness with modern amenities (including working AC), and comfortable clean linen will provide a welcoming safe haven for all you mid North island excursions. Would recommend without exception.

Having stayed here before, we did so again on a recent visit to Hamilton. The owner was friendly and advised they had upgraded us to a one bedroom unit. Unit was clean and well presented, and had both great kitchen and bathroom facilities. We think this venue may have had a change of owners, but we would go back there again. Just a suggestion - wash the ranch slider curtains a little more regularly as the room we were in had mould on the curtain.

we visited to have a nice get away from our kids, we arrive to find the private hot tub has NO privacy so we couldn't use it as people up stairs were partying. Then we find a joint in our bathroom. Cleaners should have found this so what else has been missed.also the bond for the room cost more than the room Do not recommend

Response from Mashiu18, Manager at Atrium on Ulster
Responded 28 Jun 2020
Hi there, A 1-star review is disappointing and well below our average of 4.5. But we thank you for taking the time to submit your feedback. At around 5 pm I went into your allocated unit to turn on the light and heatpump for you so the unit would be all cosy on your arrival later that evening. I also closed all the windows at that time and unfortunately I did not notice any dirt or cigarette buts in the window which means both myself AND the cleaning staff have missed seeing this???...... our apologies. We have 377 TripAdvisor reviews and as you can read, our cleaning standards are superb so we apologise if you found this to be not the case. A bond was charged as your credit card declined and it is pretty industry standard with quality motels and hotels. Our hot tub units are outdoor at the back of the unit with a shade sail above it and a 6”fence around it. We have made these as private as possible but they can be seen by upstairs guests if they make an effort to stop and look. We are surprised you did not mention any of your complaints on arrival or departure but have instead chosen to slander us through multiple social media streams.

My room was the accessable room. Upon walking in I noticed a strange smell which was there all night and was quite disturbing. It was a chemical type smell but also you could smell the drains when you turned on the shower. The carpet also looked to be quite tired and dirty. There was also a fair bit of traffic noise. Check in was friendly and efficient and the outside appearance of the units is tidy.

Our room was beautiful. It was big and spacious, the WiFi was fast and the hot tub was hot! We booked a one bedroom with cedar hot tub last minute and it was one of the best decisions we made all trip. We were in a run down, not so clean motel and felt the need to leave. We checked reviews and our only criteria was clean and with air conditioning. Atrium rated highest and we booked. It was late and the owner answered the phone and accommodated our request with the one bedroom for the following night. It was perfect. As for the hot tub... it’s a cedar hot tub, at first glance this might be disconcerting as it looks dark through the water, but as I work with cedar regularly, I know how it ages and it doesn’t not allow for bacteria build up like other hot tubs as long as the water is treated, and this was. I think this owner does a wonderful job of keeping the motel a step above most and we will most certainly book there again!

I stay at the Atrium at least 6 times a year whenever I go to hamilton and there has never been a reason to complain. Every time I go, my room is always clean and the internet runs very fast and with little latency. Awesome shower pressure and the TV is awesome. Could not recommend anywhere else in the area apart from here

Not as good as in previous visits. Lots of mould on the lace curtain and a really dirty drain on the outside balcony - so easy to clean but had not been done. Curtains can really make a hotel room. Bathroom was clean, however the cleaning solution remained on the toilet seat - it's like it had been sprayed on but not wiped off. Not sure how we feel about staying here again as it has been great in the past.

Thank you again for a lovely stay. As usual the unit was super clean and cosy.
Thank you turning the heater and light on for us. It made our arrival so much nicer
Wifi worked well, hubby and i both loved all the channels and with two TV’s there was no arguing. Staff friendly and bed comfy. Found extra pillows in the pillow box. Yay
See you next month

Ulster provides numerous options for accommodation in Hamilton. However we were not disappointed with our choice. Comfortable, well proportioned two bedroom unit, spotlessly clean. It is well located close to both the rugby stadium and the cricket ground, within 15 minutes of the city centre. Wouldn’t hesitate to stay on future visits to Hamilton.

Atrium on Ulster has 28 units of various sizes , from studios to family apartments. We only had a one night stay, but found it spotlessly clean, comfortable and well situated. On any future visits to Hamilton we would have no hesitation in returning to the Atrium.
I've arrived after midnight on a number of occasions. just email or call them they ill advise you of the room and give you a code for the safe box where you can collect your key.
Check in after 2 PM Check out by 10 AM Times may vary dependant on Occupancy and property can be consulted on day to confirm flexibility of times.
Hi,
We do not accommodate 7 persons in any unit sorry. We could offer a 2 bedroom with a studio nearby. Give us a call on 07 8390839 and we will try to work it out for you.
