    By and large, it was superb base for sightseeing in Oamaru, had much fun. Near to the downtown, 20 minutes on foot. Not to mention free parking for residents. We would recommend to anyone.

    I booked this motel a couple of months before our Christmas holiday and stayed for two nights. The layout of the room was perfect, with a comfortable bed, couch, and a built-in work desk. The amenities were top notch, including the hand and body soap dispenser, the compostable shower cap and hair tie, and the availability of an ironing board and iron. The cleanliness and overall layout of the room were impressive. The motel also had a well-equipped kitchen and a takeaway right next door that served delicious food at a great price.

    I recommend this hotel.

    I was very impressed with the room, I have stayed at other motels in Oamaru - this is the best one yet.

    Nothing that I can think of, everything was perfect.

    Friendly staff, beautiful quiet room, ultra comfy bed.

    Website says its a private balcony which we booked but was a balcony on a shared through fare which was disappointing as specifically asked in my booking about the private balcony. If you say something you should provide it.

    This hotel had everything I needed for a comfortable stay. The generously sized bed and room had all expected facilities with plenty of extra touches like makeup wipes and a night light in the bathroom. Additionally, the double glazing ensured that the hotel was quiet even when fully booked. The staff were so helpful, going the extra mile to assist me with some logistics that helped me with my self-supported bike tour of the south island. Moreover, the location was perfect for those travelling on the state highway, providing easy access to transport and plenty of suggestions for where to eat and what to visit nearby.

    Nothing could have been better about this hotel. It was the ideal place for me to stay in this region and I'm already looking forward to coming back again.

    We absolutely loved our stay at this luxurious 4-star hotel. From the moment we arrived, we were impressed by the modern and excellent condition of everything in the hotel. The room was clean and comfortable, providing us with a truly relaxing experience. We were delighted to discover that the hotel offers free parking, making it convenient to explore the nearby Victorian area. Moreover, there was a restaurant and a supermarket within close proximity to the hotel, adding to the convenience of our stay.

    We highly recommend this hotel to everyone.

    The room we stayed in was clean and spacious, it had ample space for our family of four with comfortable beds and charming decoration. The location was close to the centre of the town, which made it easy for us to go shopping and find restaurants nearby. The staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming; they made us feel like we were staying in a five-star hotel.

    Our stay was ruined by the unpleasant smell in the room. We complained to the staff, but they were unable to rectify the issue.

    Modern, very clean and well presented motel with spacious units and quiet yet reasonably central location on the main highway. Double glazing ensured no awareness of outside traffic, even though located on sh 1. The owners were helpful and unobtrusive and allowed a later departure (quiet season) which was greatly appreciated. We will stay there again.

    We found the light levels in the unit a little too low. Otherwise no complaints.
