Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

The room was beautifully clean and the bed was delightfully comfortable. There was endless hot water and the deep spa bath was utter bliss. The kitchenette was well equipped with spotless surfaces and crockery. The staff were friendly and our two nights staying here were very enjoyable. We look forward to staying again!

A very comfortable king sized bed with immaculate linen and a very quiet room well away from the main road.
Bathroom had a great spa bath for a quiet soak with a separate large shower cubical and mixer that worked as it should.
Everything we could want in the kitchenette was available for our breakfast preparation.
We did not use the TV for entertainment but the WiFi worked fine although it was showing as an "open wireless hot spot"on our device.

One night stopover to cycle the Te Awa Trail out to Ngāruawāhia . This was a close spot to start the trail ( Hamilton Gardens) . Even though we had the accessible unit - everything was very clean and comfortable , bonus the oversized level entry shower.
The bed was comfy as and we both slept well, The complex is well maintained and parked our Ute with bikes on back right outside our unit. The motel manager was also fantastic - allowing us to keep our Ute parked their for the day even though we had booked out - much safer option than Hamilton Gardens carpark. She also told us a shortcut to get onto the trail from the motel .
Great value motel with great management who enjoy giving client's a great stay. Would be happy to recommend and stay again next time in Hamilton

My partner and I spent 6 nights here over the Christmas break. The staff were very friendly and the cleaners did an excellent job. We also found the unit to be very baby friendly, which was perfect as we were holidaying with our 11 month old (Eg, cords and plugs were up high, a portacot and baby bath were provided at no extra cost). The location was excellent - close to the CBD, a 5 minute walk from the riverbank, and a 15 minute stroll to the lovely Hamilton Gardens. The room was really comfortable and the facilities excellent - we would definitely stay again.

We arrived at 8 pm after being at the races. Aircon was on and cooled the room and lights making it feel very welcoming . Beds are always comfortable. Owner and Michelle were great welcoming us. It is handy to everything and easy to get to town. Always will return

Really lovely place to stay. The room was immaculate and the kind hosts had popped the heater on to make sure it was nice and warm on arrival. I cannot find a single fault and would happily recommend the Albert Court Motel to anyone heading to Hamilton.

Our club booked this motel for the 2nd year in a row, and for good reason. Not only is it excellent value for money, situated in an excellent part of town and easy to find, the rooms are perfect for both small and large groups. Some of our group arrived after office hours as we traveled a long distance but this was not an issue as a phone call was made and arrangements sorted with out any fuss. The rooms themselves are spacious, the beds very comfortable and the shower pressure was a pleasant surprise. This will definitely not be the last time we stay here.

No complaints here :) Rooms are clean. Service is A+. Location is away from the city but not miles away. There are shops, fast-food joints and Turkish a restaurant nearby.
Parking is tight. We have a Ford Ranger and was a slight challenge as Lodge was full.
Prices are reasonable, contact them directly as they may give a better price.
Have stayed a couple of times here and so have our parents.

Have stayed a couple of times in the past week and can definitely say the location is great, easy to find, easy to navigate anywhere in the area.
The accommodation was spotlessly clean and comfortable with nice touches in the rooms.
Very welcoming hosts who couldn’t have been more helpful, thank you!

Hello Mario,
Nice to hear from you again. Unfortunately our motel does not provide airport transportation from Auckland International Airport. However our guests have previously used a shuttle service that can be booked on-line. The website is aerolink shuttles (aerolink.nz). There is no train service from Auckland airport to Hamilton.
Kind regards
Chris
Hello Mario, Thanks for your enquiry regarding pubic transport from Albert Court Motor Lodge to the University of Waikato. Hamilton has a good public bus service. There are several bus options around every 20 minutes in both directions. The bus stops are all within a very short walk from Albert Court Motor Lodge. The University bus stop is right at the University door step. If you have any further queries please don't hesitate to get back in touch. Kind regards.
Chris
