Lovely accommodation

5.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 2 Mar 2019via mobile
We stayed here for one night and thought it was great. The service was great and location awesome, would stay again for sure, so quiet and relaxing. Lovely and clean. Towels were available to take to the hot pools which was a bonus.

Great to hear you and your son enjoyed your stay at Settlers. I think it was the only rain in weeks so we were pretty happy as all our trails are open. We are pleased you were comfortable and happy with your room and we will see you next time!

The host took our last minute phone booking while driving up from Dunedin to Nelson with gracious hospitality and found us a lovely room. Clean, comfortable and attractive, the unit was exactly what we needed. It is well stocked for light meal- making and beautifully located for a morning walk in the stunning forest walkway system. The perfect place to stop over, and very good value. This was our second visit - last time we had the family unit and it too was excellent.

Thank you for taking the time to write a review of our Motel and we are so pleased to hear you enjoyed your stay!
We do have well stocked kitchenettes and the Heritage forest with the wonderful wood carvings is just at the end of our street. We are also very handy to the village and Thermal pools.
Maybe you will visit us again!

We stayed for one night as we were visiting the Spring pools with friends. The motel is convenient, well appointed and very comfortable. I would certainly recommendation it to anyone visiting. Now the Trip Advisor website is asking me to say more but I don’t know what else to say!!!!

Planned stop over for the night travelling between Christchurch and Nelson. Super 5☆ motel rub by Sally and Alan. We had a ground floor studio with parking right outside. It was an unseasonal wet and cold 9C couple of days. However, heating had been put on, umbrellas provided and towels from the laundry for use at the Hot Springs. Also towels on the day of checkout. Please remember to return before leaving Hammer.
Room had everything you needed.
Loved our stay.

We always return to Sally and Alan at The Settlers who are magic hosts.
Settlers is a well established motel with well appointed units away from noisy roads.
Great bedding and good kitchenware.
Always clean and tidy, parking outside unit.
