- Kapea (4/5): Consideration for children - The place was okay considering most rooms were taken by hospital patients and I had my 3 children with us and they were constantly told to be quiet which was really annoying cause it was just after we checked in around 2.30 and they were just laughing and being normal next minute people were complaining too the front desk about my children n all we notice on the walls were quiet times between 10 pm n 7am I fully understand that but it was only early afternoon.Gummon!!
- Arms (9/5): -
- Kelly (4/5): Would not recommend. - Central location. Rooms are run down, exposed wires on electric blanket.
- Chloe (9/5): Best value for money around… it’s everything you need, warm & clean with great sraff - Reasonably priced, close to where I needed to be, lots of parking and warm :). And they are nice to cats It’s not as up to date as other places, but I don’t need that modern :). I prefer that it’s clean and the people are nice :)
- Passport15082329985 (8/5): Great stay thanks Tudor - I stayed one night as a solo female up for a heart procedure. I was worried after reading all the negative reviews. Is it dated and basic Yes, but it had everything I needed. The lovely lady at reception upgraded me to a two bedroom unit upstairs and booked a reliable taxi for me early the next morning. It was clean and tidy, there were three working air cons in the room so I wasn't cold. It was very quiet and I got a good night's sleep before surgery. I meet some lovely Asian folks staying there and at no time did I feel unsafe. Water pressure was great and hot, I got milk. I must be one of the lucky ones that had a great experience.
- Sandra (8/5): Quiet location, clean and with comfy beds - Quiet location, clean and comfy beds
- Dave (8/5): -
- suzannecX5109UD (2/5): Run Down. Grubby exterior and would never go here again. - We were booking into this motel as the preferred option for an appointment at the Waikato hospital as we live a fair way away from Hamilton. I was very dubious given the reviews on Booking.com but decided I would check it out for myself. My husband and I stayed on the 29/6. First appearance was driving down the driveway to the motel which the driveway took you to the back of the units where the office was. There was a child size mattress on the driveway and too the right longish grass and a pool covered with a tarp and fenced off. The water looked green. I had difficulty finding the office and beside it was a broken washing machine and a lot of other used and broken stuff. When the receptionist finally came ( she was out helping someone else and I called her 4 times by ringing the bell. She said I could choose from 2 rooms. One downstairs and the other upstairs. When I asked what the difference was she said upstairs would be quieter. We opened the door and the unit looked a bit grubby to me but not really bad. The bed was a double and we rolled towards to middle so not the easiest to sleep in The shower glass was covered in soap scum. We opened the kitchen window and outside of it were lots of dust and cobwebs. I’m guessing not much gets done on the exterior as it was all very grubby looking and could do with a good steam cleaning.
Our unit had no milk and the fridge froze the stuff I put in there even though it was only turned to 2.
I have to go back over there next week and I have chosen to pay for my own motel at $126 a night for something much newer and nicer. It’s a shame these people are guaranteed an income from the hospital booking patients and relatives there so they don’t need to do maintenance or upgrades.
- Sam (10/5): Exceptional -
- Sheree (8/5): - Good basic accommodation. Could do with a bit of a updo but it is adequate for what we needed
- Susan (6/5): Pleasant - Proximity to bus station. I'd be unable to cook there, poor kitchen facilities, plates. We would not stay there again.
- Dave (8/5): Very good -
- Young (4/5): Disappointing -
- Ananya (9/5): Superb -
- Racoma (8/5): Very good -
- Ria: (5/5): It was ok, I may not stay there again - Furniture and decor are outdated and worn out. I could see old rubbish and thrown out furniture out the back The room felt a bit grotty and outdated, musty and old.
- sankar (10/5): - Great
- Hine (5/5): Passable -
- Simone (7/5): Trip to Hamilton - The beds were very comfortable and having an extra tv and heat pump in the bedroom was great. Our unit didn't have any soap for showering just liquid hand soap. And there was grime around the inside of the shower.
- Travel32470189136 (4/5): Never ever again - Was supposed to stay here as i was support person to my brother in hospital HOWEVER I was suspicious on first view, reception was average looking but person pleasant. Went to my room upstairs it was dark and within minutes I heard loud swearing from the back...enough to make me feel unsafe. Very old and outdated, I felt unsafe and place felt very uncomfortable. Messaged my cousin and went to stay with her, Thank goodness. My brother has to go back n for a week and no way is he staying there we've found a much nicer one and closer and I'll personally pay the extra cost so that I know he is safe and comfortable.
- Kahui (6/5): Pleasant - A bit old and unclean
- kuzzyp2025 (10/5): Pleasant Homely vibes - Definitely a no frills experience dated facility worth the cheap cost . With the most freindly staff ready to accomadate you where they can. Close to town and shuttles to hospital. Very clean, rooms serviced daily.
it gives off an old motel feel, which for some is a pleasant experience with its homely vibes.
Pool not operational, kitchenette with basic utensil Works fine.
highly reccomended not flash but good value.
Thankyou Tudor
- Nicla (9/5): Friendly staff, clean and pet friendly - The lady at the reception was lovely. We have been also given some fresh milk to keep in the room for tea and coffee.
Each room had a private parking which was lock in on the property. Room clean, very big.
- Jessie (10/5): Exceptional -
- Stan (3/5): Poor - Not much Grounds were scruffy pool was dirty and covered room was old and needed a decent clean.
People arguing outside your room.
Believed some tenants long term.
- Stephen (8/5): Very good -
- Galley (10/5): Exceptional -
- Sabrina (10/5): Exceptional -
- Denise (8/5): Good value for money. - It was close to the city, plenty of room, clean and tidy. Carrying heavy luggage up flight of stairs, bed was a bit hard for my liking.
- Laura (8/5): Very good - The reception staff were friendly and helpful. Although the decor of the room was older it was clean and tidy. The shower pressure was great. It was easy to leave early the next morning with clear instructions on what to do if the reception was closed.
- Michael (8/5): Very good -
- Mohammad (8/5): - A great place to stay. An older building but neat and tidy inside, and fully equipped with heat pumps in the living area and bedrooms, large fridge, large TV screen etc. Staff extremely welcoming and friendly, offered us a free upgrade which was terrific! Beds are comfortable and clean, furnishing fairly new and pretty much spotless. Nice outdoor settings too. Plenty of secure off street parking. Will definitely be back next time we need a place to stay in Hamilton!
- Denise (10/5): Exceptional - Friendly staff, Great location. Comfy beds and great shower👍👍
- Denise (10/5): Exceptional - The staff are awesome. Friendly and helpful. Very comfortable beds. Great location. Would stay again in a heart beat. The shower was amazing.
- Susie (4/5): Basic, won’t be back. - Not a lot Very very basic. The place is very basic though it seemed clean it was very run down. Very little cooking utensils. No cooking oil 1 pot 1 pan, no chopping board. Definitely wouldn’t recommend
- Lesley (7/5): Good -
- Jessica (6/5): Fantastic location, friendly staff, big rooms, clean facilities. Very nice. - Location was fantastic. Beds were comfortable, toiletries in the shower were appreciated. Friendly staff. Lots of space for our family to spread out Stair only access to our room, bit difficult with heavy suitcases. lots of cats around the property which wasn't great for allergies.
- Francis (10/5): - All was excellent
- Nigel (8/5): - Walkable from city centre and cricket ground, maybe needs a little lick of paint here and there, but overall no complaints.
- Filipo (7/5): Good -
- Jacqui (7/5): Lovely owner and a good sized room. - The motel is in a good place for shops etc. The motel is on a main road and our room was close to the road. There was a lot of traffic all night and going in and out of the busy petrol station opposite. Unfortunately there were also roadworks being carried out overnight. Due to all the noise most the group did not get much sleep. So if you can’t wear earplugs then ask for a room away from the road.
- Darren (8/5): Very good - Easy location All satisfactory
- Suzanne (8/5): Clean and comfortable, excellent parking and proximity to city - Great location close to city and has great parking Very little choice of coffee/tea sachets provided - no hot chocolate
- Jan (8/5): Affordable & comfortable accommodation for our overnight stay. Staff friendly & helpful. - Good, affordable accommodation for our brief overnight stay. Comfortable bed, good shower & all that we needed. Very friendly, helpful & accommodating staff. N/A
- Grahame (6/5): It did the job - AC worked very well. Upon arrival, we were told we had been upgraded to the apartment. It gave us a separate bedroom. Soap dish in the shower was broken. The water temperature constantly kept changing from hot to cold while having a shower. Couldn't get the induction elements to work.
- Ranulfo (8/5): Very good. - Closer to shops and parks.
- Tom (10/5): Exceptional -
- Katrina (7/5): Good - Comfortable bed and verg clean bathroom
- Tauri (8/5): Very good -
- Daniel (10/5): Exceptional -
- Daniel (10/5): Exceptional -
- Jay (10/5): Great hosts, good decent amount of space, nothing fancy but really good value for money and so much - Good location, everytime I GPS thing, they were all within 5 mins of our room. Like that it is tucked away from the main room. Like that the back has lots of greenery, offers a nice view. The bed was so comfy, shower great and good pressure. Very family friendly Not really a biggy....probably only downside would be the distance from the carpark to room was quite far and had a staircase in between. It's all outdoors so offers no weather protection when lugging all of your belongings into the room. Just take jackets/umbrellas in preparation
- Osh (5/5): Passable - Close to hospital where we were needing to go Room was clean but found cockroaches . Pull was not available. Place could do with a spruce up💯👌🏽
- Karen (6/5): - The room was nice and large which was great. The shower could have been a lot cleaner - the shower head was very yucky and hadn't been cleaned properly in a very long time. Overall, for the price, it was great. Awesome location - could walk down the hill into the main street of Hamilton very easily.
- Sandy (7/5): Convenient location to get anywhere. - Location o Hospital. Parking.
- Memory (9/5): Cozy and enjoyable venue, I would stay here again. - The location was under 30 minutes to both venues that I needed to attend, access to the center of town was in walking distance, room was tidy and clean just the correct space we needed to be comfortable, bed was comfortable with pillows and covers. That I had to check out early, I wished I could have stayed an extra night just to relax before leaving for home.
- Melanie (10/5): Exceptional -
- Amber_dixon (3/5): Disappointing - There was plenty of parking and theoretically within walking distance to the main part of the city. I say walking is theoretically close enough but unfortunately the area does not feel safe enough to walk. The room that I was in smelled very badly of urine to the point where I didn't end up staying at the lodge as I couldn't handle it any longer. They have done their best to refurbish but it is still a very run down venue. I had higher expectations based on the booking.com rating as I have been using this platform for years and never had an issue based on reviews and ratings. This is listed as an almost 4 star motel on google and it is nowhere near that rating in my experienced opinion. This is more of a 2.5-3 star. This also had a 7.0 rating in booking.com and it is also not to the standard I expected of this rating. The amount I paid for one night was also very high considering. The staff member that greeted me was not very friendly and welcoming although did answer my questions. Had the rating on booking.com been closer to reality I don't think I would have had as high an expectation on level of accommodation and therefore my feedback may not have been as negative. I'm sorry I couldn't give a more positive review.
