The owner was nice enough to loan his shovel to me for so we could dig a hot water bath at Kawhia Beach. Strong Wi-Fi. Fast internet. Air conditioner worked well and did not blow air directly onto the bed.

There was no kitchenette sink in our room -- we were instructed to not wash our dirty dishes so the staff could replace them with clean ones every day. There was no kitchenette stove top either -- just a microwave and electric pot to boil water.

Amazing location parking at the door so many nice eating out choices at walking distance. Supermarket around the corner and a great playground across the street. Big rooms and clean. Close to waitomo caves.

I would have preferred if the mattresses were not as soft as they were same with the pillows but my kids actually like the fact they were soft. We all still managed to have a great sleep both nights we stayed.

WiFi connection was good, walking distance to anywhere in town. Free parking space.

Can be a bit noisy since lots of heavy traffic. The office was supposed to be open for check in when we arrived but it was actually not. We called the manager, but got a recorded message on the voicemail. Did call again after ~30 min with good luck this time. Everything went well after all and got to check in all good. Just calling to a NZ number from my Finnish one was a bit of a pain since it cost me a lot...

Spotless. Very well equipped. Owner/staff were very friendly and welcoming. Clearly very well looked after. Easy access to everything on offer in the town and the region generally.

The building creaked and groaned constantly between heavy trucks going past causing rumbles and pipes ticking all the time this is not a place to stay if you are a light sleeper!

My brother and I enjoyed our stay - wicked cold snap and we're traveling in a Jucy campervan, tin can. The host was very nice and informative. Kiwi House was an amazing sanctuary, Waterfalls, Natural Bridge nearby. Grocery store across the street. Restaurants in walking distance. It was just perfect, thank you!!

If you are looking for a motel in Otorohanga i highly recommend this one. The motel is well located on the main road from shops, supermarket, petrol station. You can walk up msiin road to everything. The rooms are well maintained and super clean. I booked the apartment room and it has small kitchenette, microwave, toaster etc.

The decor and bathrooms are a bit dated. So don't expect modern. But everything is maintained and clean. Also main road can be busy with traffic at night. It didn't bother me or keep me awake.

Great room size with all amenities and separate bathroom. Bedding configuration suited us well. Simple decor, clean and tidy. Location was perfect - straight across the road from the park and walking distance to town.

Decor was a little dated which didn't bother us. Right on a busy road, but road noise was minimal.

Great little motel. Incredibly clean rooms, spacious and comfortable. Clean bathroom. Perfect little kitchenette with a small container of fresh milk provided upon check in. The owner was super friendly and made us feel welcome. A little gem in Otorohanga.

Some outdoor bins for disposal of nappies would be good as we ended up taking them over to the park.

Good location, very clean and comfortable, helpful owner

Property no longer did breakfast, which was understandable as the owner said he was wasting a lot of food when people didn’t order a breakfast with their stay, but recommended a cafe around the corner which was really yummy and a good food selection and opened early.

The location was awesome for the purpose we were there. We had an event which was held at the RSA which took us 2 minutes to walk to and walk back from. Was fortunate that it wasn't raining but even if it was it wouldn't have taking us long to get back to our room anyway. Also, like the fact that the room was warm.

There was some noise coming from the room above as the room had children but it wasn't enough to make our stay unpleasant. They are just children after all. All in all they were pretty well behaved.
