Detailed Reviews
Lack of maintenance in the rooms is pretty obvious. The rooms are well appointed, but need to be updated.
Things like bathroom mirrors cracked from one side to the other, and when brought to owners attention, response is “oh yeah, I know...”, but after a few months, still not fixed. Things like that.
Brilliant staff, awesome meals.
At the end of the day, my employer pays for my accommodation, so it’s all good. 🤙

Staff kindly allowed an early check in time (30 mins) and upgraded to 2brm apartment.
Very friendly service.
The room was large which was great.
Points to improve:
The fridge froze our food
The shower was dreadful
The bed was very old and sagged
The unit was clean and comfortable and good value for money in quiet location.

Our 4-person suite offered one private bedroom and a good-sized bed with comfortable mattress in the "living" area. Everything was basic but clean. The exterior looked like a cement blockhouse and access was maze-like. Shower worked but bathroom was cramped and no hair dryer in evidence. We cooked our dinner in the room's kitchenette and enjoyed the "trim" and whole milk in the little bottles our home delivery milkman brought when I was a child. Fun

Aaron Court is in a great location, central to Hamilton CBD, a short walking distance to a number of yum cafes along Grey Street.
The super king size bed was so very comfortable. The spa bath an added bonus.
Friendly and helpful staff
We have stayed here previously and can highly recommend

We have stayed twice at this motel and will be back.
We originally stayed at a nearby motel and went here for dinner. My son decided to jump into their pool which is next to the restaurant. We were not guests and the staff could not have been more welcoming, offering us towel and telling him to stay in as long as he wanted.
We decided to stay the next time we were in Hamilton and were again very impressed by the friendliness of the staff. They are willing to go 'the extra mile'. The rooms are comfortable and have all you need if you wish to eat in. The restaurant is reasonably priced with tasty family meals.
On our next visit I was picking my son up from camp in the area and so really wanted to check in before the usual allowed check in time, they sent the cleaners to our room first and had it available to us well ahead of time. We were outside of normal restaurant hours, but they had no problem delivering a snack to our room.
We will be visiting Hamilton again in the next couple of weeks and will look forward to staying again.

My family stayed with other families at the Aaron Court for one night because of a cycling competition close to Hamilton. Arriving and checking in at the motel was very quick and easy and took under 10 minutes. We had a 2 bedroom unit that could sleep 5 people comfortably. While the 2 bedroom units do not have spa baths, they do have amazing showers. The room had cable tv which was useful as the fist stage of the Tour De France was on that night. Gerards Restaurant at the motel was very nice and the food was delicious. The spa pool was an excellent way to relax. The big pool looked good and as a dare I swam in it, it was freezing! Overall I had a great stay at this motel and I look forward to staying here again next time the cycling is on.

Up stairs studio, open plan bedroom 1 room with a pleasant view over the pool. I have stayed at this venue a couple of times and because of the clean pool and great service (receptionist Kimberly) I will be back again, it has never disappointed my expectations. This was a last minute reservation which I paid a little more then I usually would when staying here.

No rubbish bin in bathroom.Not enough towels.Just thought it was pretty average accommodation. Paid $140.00 for a 2 bedroom upstairs unit (2 people).we arrived after 9pm and didnt have time to look around at other hotels and like other people said it looks ok at the front but definitely more average out the back.

We rang up on New Years Eve booking for Jan 1st and 2nd. We explained our requirements to the staff and they suggested a deluxe spa room. We had a separate room for our 9 month old, where the staff had assembled and made up a Portacot so he could go to bed early without us disturbing him. The curtains are dark and thick too, so we weren't woken up by the light. They had also given us a room as far from the road as possible so our son wouldn't be disturbed by road noise.
On our second night we had takeaways and the staff readily recommended a place to my husband, again after listening to what we wanted.
We would happily return to Aaron Court if were staying in Hamilton again

Stayed at the Aaron Court Motor Inn this weekend with my husband and young kids. It was great and would def stay again if in Hamilton. The pool (which we didn't use as it wasn't warm enough) was very clean looking as was the surrounding area. The room was good and had everything that you would expect in this price bracket. We stayed two nights and the cleaner did a great job servicing the room on the second morning, the people super friendly and reception even lent us felts and colouring in activities for the kids. The reception food was excellent, the waiter very friendly and the food superb and it was super cheap.
