The best motel to stay. I stayed in 3 bedroom suite for a month with my family. That was a ever memorable stay. we enjoyed a lot. The motel is in the Heart of the city with all facilities are near by. Plenty of outdoor and indoor space . Clean and neat always. All Faclilities are awesome including Swimning pool and barbeque. All staffs are very frienly. Rooms are so spacious. If you are looking for a special stay in Tauranga go for this motel. The most important thing is that, you will get a chance to meet the most friendliest and kind hearter owner Mr. Kris. I will choose only Colonial Court Motor Inn, if i have to book a Motel in Tauranga ever again.

We stayed for 2 weeks. We were in the 2-bedroom studio. The room is so comfortable. The owners are friendly and helpful. There is the daily maid service. The motel is calm and quiet. It is not far from the supermarket.

We were a hockey group that had been trying to attend a tournament the last 3 years that was delayed because of Covid. Kris was very accommodating to our requests and changes. The Motor Inn was always spotless and cleaned to a high standard and the rooms were great. We had two houses which were a great base for our teams as well as different sized units. I would highly recommend staying here if you are travelling to Tauranga.

We arrived with a family of 5 and we were given the White Glove treatment throughout our 4 day stay. The owners are amazing - Kris gave us a personal touch to ensure we had the best experience not only at the hotel but during our stay in Tauranga and guided us to some of the best restaurants in NZ! The rooms are spacious and immaculate and the grounds are beautiful with an awesome pool and bbq area with outdoor seating for everyone. We were so appreciative of the hospitality - It was hard to leave! Highly recommend!

Could not fault the Colonial Lodge Motor Inn. Being a group of 6, we really struggled to find somewhere to stay. Kris really looked after us and went above and beyond! We had a 3 bedroom unit which was immaculate and so comfortable! The local restaurant/cafe recommendations were very appreciated and honestly some of the best food we've ever eaten! When we come back to Tauranga, we will definitely look to book here. Thank you so much for your great hospitality!

Booked here based on previous reviews and was not disappointed, it was excellent. From the warm welcome on arrival by Kris, then being shown to our room and things like the remotes explained, to having the offer to store our bikes -our stay began perfect. The room was spacious, immaculately clean, all products were eco friendly including the complimentary can of water, Air conditioning in room was very efficient which was good, and large bathroom with shower that had good pressure. A bonus extra were two drying racks which were great for washing. Grounds are immaculate and we had a lovely swim in the pool which was a good temperature, clean and in a nice fenced area with a BBQ and plenty of outdoor furniture. We were really pleased with this motel and highly recommend it.

Great room with all the facilities I needed for my stay and more, even a well stocked little kitchen area. There was a comfortable bed, the owner Chris was fantastic and went above and beyond ensuring I was comfortable and had all the information I needed, even giving me fresh avacados from the tree which was in fruit. Close to the centre of tauranga and an easy drive to the beach.

This must be our third or fourth stay at Colonial Court Motel 😘. Excellent location and handy for visiting all sites in Tauranga and around. Owner Kris is helpful and always communicates promptly. We managed to book the One-bedroom premium unit in our recent two stays. The unit is spacious, homely, and cosy. Also, this unit’s corner location adds extra privacy to our stay. As long as Kris stays in charge, we will keep Colonial Court Motel as our Tauranga home 🏡.
