Review of Bounty Motel
4.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 28 Aug 2024via mobile
We stayed here one night as friends invited us for dinner in Paihia so thought we’d stay rather than drive an hour home. The amenities are absolutely fine, I’d stay again. Shower has good pressure and lots of hot water. Clean and tidy with everything you need. Staff very friendly and welcoming. The free oranges and chocolates were a nice touch.

Comfortable, well equpped kitchenette. My partner really liked the bed. Checkin staff were very friendly and helpful. Slept well because it was very quiet. Like the location, very convenient to walk to shops and restaurants in Paihia and the waterfront.

Room tip: Very handy to shops and restaurants.

Great value motel within easy walking distance of the wharf, shops, bars and restaurants. Very clean with a large comfortable bed with crisp linen. Large TV with some Sky channels. Paul is very friendly and knowledgeable of the area. Easy free parking.

After reading mixed reviews I was somewhat hesitant about our stay here but was pleasantly surprised. Room 26 was upstairs with a nice outlook towards the sea and hardly a walk into town. A slightly unusual layout but spacious, super king bed, functional kitchen, great shower, and a bonus of Sky TV. We would stay here again.

Budget motel with a great location one block back from the seafront and 500 metres from the wharf and town centre.

The room was large with a separate small kitchenette and a separate toilet/bathroom. Wi-fi was good. The motel has free parking.

There is no air-conditioning and whilst we were there the weather was 26C. At night our sleep quality was poor as a result of the heat.

Very good value for money and great for a one or two night stay.
