Review of Colonial Motel
5.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 25 May 2024via mobile
The owners and staff were friendly and helpful. The unit was warm, clean and cosy. The bed was firm and comfortable with a good selection of pillows. Good-size TV with Freeview and Netflix. OK shower. Close to town in quiet street. Overall I had a very comfortable stay and would happily stay here again.

Excellent motel with very friendly staff, very clean and tidy, dont hesitate to book here, they get the details right.
Stayed for almost a week and came home each day to a beautiful spotless room and complementary cookies.

Would book here again.

Great, comfortable, freshly renovated property with modern interior design.
We had a pleasant stay and having separate bedrooms was great for a family with teenagers.
Stayed only 1 night but would have stayed longer if we had more time in Invercargill.

Excellent place to stay in Invercargill. The rooms are very clean and quite spacious. And the owners are friendly and incredibly kind. Can't recommend it enough and it's just a five minute drive into town.

What a beautiful surprise. The owner is so helpful and our room is huge and like brand new. My husband found this one and it was like finding a little gold mine. Very happy . I would definitely recommend this motel to anyone . Being a two night stay there is so much room and it's fully equipped kitchen lets you save money on take away

Room tip: Little gold mine surprise
