OUtstanding service as always from Ronald and the housekeeping staff. The rooms are always extremely clean, well-equipped and quiet. We stayed in a one-bedroomed unit which was very spacious and comfortable. This motel gets a big plus as the lighting is good enough to do embroidery and read by which is not always the case.

The rooms were extremely clean and comfortable. The man at the front desk was friendly and helpful when I couldn't figure out the heat. The windows were open in the room when we got there and it was 45 degrees outside so the room was freezing. Shower pressure was good but hard to get temperature right. Motel was super quiet. Parking is a bit of a nightmare with the spots and lot being very tight and one lane for both in and out. There's a fantastic breakfast place right next door that I highly recommend. Overall, a great stay for the money.

The motel is spotlessly clean, has good facilities and is conveniently situated to the city. A useful feature was the availability of a unit sleeping 3 persons with access to a 2 bed unit. Close proximity to Whanganui Collegiate School. The manager was very helpful.

I stayed here briefly for one night in October 2022. The hotel is well located on the main street. Around the hotel there are several supermarkets and restaurants (McDonalds etc) and just down the road is the main shopping area. It's fairly straight-forward to get to/from State Highway 3. The room was large, with a heat pump, all the usual shampoo/soap etc in the bathroom, and, in my bathroom, there was a spa pool which was so tempting but I did not have time to use it. The wifi worked well. Parking is more or less outside the door to the unit. I will consider staying here again on my next visit to Whanganui.

It’s hard to improve on being the best motel in town but I find little extras each time I visit.. Friendly, helpful owners and staff, well appointed rooms with extra touches such as kitchen utensils including paper towel and cling wrap; bathroom with so many lights, heat and fans, you laugh as you choose the options you want, good TV ( some rooms have 2), air con, free on-site parking. The best thing is very comfortable beds with clean comfortable bedding and the feeling you can just relax and enjoy your stay. Supermarkets nearby. Location is on main shopping street but just outside of the busy centre.

This is a great motor lodge in a very good location, walking distance from many places to eat. Our room was a studio and was quite spacious and the bathroom lovely and clean. The bed was very comfy and we had a great sleep with no outside noise. Friendly owner. HIghly recommended.
