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.

From getting greeted at reception, sorting out our booking and then taken to our room. The hosts are excellent. We had a 2 bed spa suite (nice) , I was shown the 2 bedrooms, the bathroom how to use the spa bath. Then shown the how to operate the TV with the Sky remote. Asked what type of milk we drink. I must say very impressed. Now the rooms, awesome 🤩 comfy bed, comfy pillows. Would definitely recommend and would definitely stay there again.

Exceptionally clean and tidy, comfortable bed and friendly reception within walking distance to town. Supermarket and various take out restaurants just around the corner. Only a short drive to Ohope beach, we ate out at the Fisherman’s wharf restaurant which was excellent

This stay exceeded my expectations. It was very tidy, well presented and super quiet. No road noise at all. The man who checked us in was awesome and explained everything with ease. Easy parking and spacious rooms. Would not hesitate to book again.

I was in Whakatane for more than 2 months for a business trip. And during this time I really enjoyed my stay. Liz and Malcolm were very welcoming and helping, the rooms were clean and cozy, and the spa! After a hard working day, this was just what I needed.

Just had an unpleasant experience with disrespectful , incredibly rude and inappropriate behavior towards women and children from the owners/management of one88. Thanks for making us feel bad and belittle for our 3 nights stay. We pay a lot of money to you for the disgusting bad treatment. Learn how to talk to people with Kindness and respect people deserve.

We stayed in a 2 bedroom motel suite on a Friday and Saturday night. We were shown to our room and shown how to work the TV and heat pump, and provided info about local cafes and restaurants - always a great start! The room was lovely and clean and very comfortable. Lounge suite comfy to sit and watch TV and also a desk to do some work at. Good wifi coverage. Well fitted out kitchen that includes a dishwasher. Heated blankets on the beds. Great quality bedding, pillows and beds. Fabulous spa bath and large shower. Separate area with basins. Plenty of fresh towels. Bonus was our room being serviced on Saturday morning. Great spot to walk into town centre, cafes, restaurants, movies and markets. Highly recommended.

Response from Liz Donnelly, General Manager at ONE88 On Commerce
Responded 16 Sept 2023
Dear PatAuckland, Thank you for taking the time to review One88 on Commerce Motel in Whakatane, it is great to hear such positive feedback about the Property from well travelled Guests like yourselves. Our Housekeeping Staff do a fantastic job in cleaning and presenting the property in the best way possible, and our high level of cleanliness is reflected through all of our various online reviews. The secret to getting Guests off to a good start is preparation, and we prepare well ahead of our Guests arrival. This means we have seamless operations in place to smooth out the Check In process, and a well scripted introduction to deliver to the Guests once we have escorted them to their Rooms. We believe that being one of the best Motels in New Zealand is having the ability to merge a very good Property with excellent Cleanliness Standards, peppered with a healthy dash of outstanding Customer Service. We believe in charging a fair room rate all year round for a small provincial property, rather than gouging Guests in times of High Demand. This way we keep our Guests Happy and Returning time after time after time. We look forwards to welcoming you back to One88 on Commerce Motel the next time you are in the Whakatane area. Kind regards Liz and Malcolm Motel Managers This response is the subjective opinion of the management representative and not of Tripadv

So pleasant to be shown to my room, and how the air con, tv etc work. Beautifully clean and spacious. Loved the double glazed windows and spa bath. In fact I'm booking again now for a further visit needed to whakatane.

I go to Whakatane for work once per month and always choose One88 on Commerce. It is spotlessly clean, comfortable and well appointed with kitchen and bathroom amenities. Very quiet with double glazed windows. Great secure parking. Nice courtyard in the downstairs rooms. The management are wonderful people and really make you feel welcome.
