We stayed there last week for two days and were pleasantly surprised at how nice this accommodation is for the price paid. Absolute best value for money motel we have stayed in and we travel lots!! We arrived late and the owner had seen this on our booking so as it was a cold night he had our radiator on so our room was already warm on arrival. Lovely staff, comfortable and immaculate room. We lived in Gisborne for 3 years and had no idea this motel was such a little gem :) More
Hard working, helpful and friendly staff and a motel with a good range of fittings and facilities. Clean and comfortable.
Only downside was the traffic through the night, presumably increased by the current closure of the rail line to the town which will hopefully be resolved by some foresight by those concerned.
Lovely beach very close by.
A good base for exploring the area.
Useful laundry; didn't use the pool.
Hi Observer2908
Thank you so much for your review of Motel Oasis! We are so pleased you
found your unit to be clean and comfortable, enjoyed our lovely beach and
thought we were helpful and friendly. We are also delighted you found we
represented Excellent Value! Providing great value is what we strive for and
to know our guests recognise that is very rewarding, thank you!
We are sorry for the traffic disturbance you experienced - you may be
interested to know that we are currently looking at double glazing windows
in the units that could benefit from it and we think that will make a big
difference to guests.
Thanks again for taking the time to review and happy travels!
Kind regards

I recently went to Gisborne with a group of friends for a mini reunion. We all managed to get a booking at the same hotel for the duration of the stay. From the moment we arrived the staff at the hotel were friendly, welcoming and made our trip and experience wonderful. The rooms were clean and serviced daily and staff were accommodating with every request (and when you have over 25 people in one group including children this can be quite challenging). The motel also has bikes and scooters available for guests.
Overall I would highly recommend Oasis Motel (two thumbs up)!

This hotel is an absolute bargain. Located a 4 minute drive to the town centre it has everything we could ask for. Fresh milk and a drink on arrival, pool, laundry and push bikes all at our disposal. Room was large, bed was amazingly comfortable. Shower worked well! Would highly recommend this hotel to anyone travelling through Gisborne. Staff are warm and welcoming and nothing is too difficult. Thank you for having us

Oasis Motel is one of the nicest motels I've every stayed at. we were here for 3 nights and loved every minute of it. Modern spacious rooms with air conditioning and large bathrooms. The bed was a tad on the small and soft though.
The solar heated swimming pool was wonderful and immaculately clean. Unlimited free Wifi was a bonus, as was the wide range of Sky TV channels available.
We hadn't realised that the kitchenette in the room didn't have a sink, but were able to use the bathroom so not a biggie really.
The service from owners Kate and Hamish was exemplary. They have great local knowledge and are always willing to have a chat. We enjoyed ourselves so much that it felt like we were staying with friends.
A great value stay. I thoroughly recommend Oasis Motel to anyone and everyone.
Hi SB_Sheppard
Thank you so much for a wonderful review of Motel Oasis! Very high praise being ‘one of the nicest motels you’ve stayed at’, we are so happy about that! You will be pleased to know that we are presently upgrading all our beds and do have one that would suit you perfectly next time you stay – a firm King Size bed – we will be happy to make sure you get that next time!
Thank you for mentioning the great value – that is a very high priority for us and we are so glad you found that here.
It was an absolute pleasure to host you both, and we look forward to seeing you again next time you are in Gizzy!
Kind regards

We stayed here over christmas 2013. They had everything you would need for a family of 5. They kids went back and forth to the office choosing playstation 2 games. Between that and the pool the kids were happy. The service here was great would definitely stay here again. So close to the beach and not far from town. Rooms were clean and tidy. They had bikes to ride and a whole lot of other outdoor activities for families.
Hi DrewN84
Thank you very much for taking the time to review Motel Oasis. We are delighted you found we had everything needed for your family and that the kids enjoyed the pool, bikes and games. We have no doubt had a few changes and improvements since your last stay so would love to share those with you on your next family holiday!
Thanks again.
Kind regards
