Parklands Motorlodge

We were only needing one night, booked this place as it advertised a bar and restaurant. Perfect after driving all day. Watch out: bar and restaurant not open on public holidays. Wish we had known this before booking.

We had a lovely relaxing time thank you. We were just a little surprised that the payment for our second night had already been charged to our credit card before we arrived and that we were charged $5 more than the first night.

Unfortunately when we arrived our room had ants that were all up the wall and in the bedding. Although we were offered another room, there was no acknowledgement or apology for the situation. We decided to not stay and again received no apology, offer of refund or anything.

We had a great overnight stay here. We needed somewhere half way between Wellington and Auckland to break up the long drive for the kids. The pool was a hit and the big inflatable pillow was fun. The playground is definitely for smaller kids 7 and under. The games room was a bit of a let down. The only functional item was the table tennis. And the day we stayed the spa had been emptied. The room was perfect with Twin beds for kids in the separate bedroom and queen in the main space. Overall ots a great place and we would stay again.

Pool is a bit small for the size but there are a few entertainment options. Lots of space outside. Opening bar earlier would be good idea. Staying more than one night would be better to take advantage of its offerings.

Liked the open space in front. Staff were great

Everything was great. Very comfortable and great people.

Nice place, the room was fine but Tv and Sky did not work at all, I arrived lat 10pm and no one was there until after I left in morning. No breakfast available which was no good either. I will definitely go back and try everything out next time.

We loved our one night stay, wish we could have stayed longer. Will definitely come back again.

Very comfortable
