Both travellers on the road and on a budget rely on motels for convenient stops with reasonable rates. Direct access to parking makes a motel an easy place to catch some sleep after a day of driving. The relatively smaller size of this accommodation type can also help to make check-in quick and easy.
The staff were friendly, great motel, very clean and comfortable. I like that there is a spa you can use.(we didn't get to use it this time )
I love the playground, handy to know for our grandchildren.
Late check out was available if needed.
The room I was in was incredibly spacious with plenty of room to relax, cook, get washed etc and also contained a heater which the owner of the motel had already turned on so the room was warm for when I arrived. The staff were also really welcoming and I was offered fresh towels/cloths after my first night. I was also very pleased the the laundry room was accessible free of charge.
Location was excellent for Hobbiton and Waitomo Caves visit! We could walk to a lovely (and very yummy) coffee shop each morning and a fun brew pub at night. There were other restaurants on the street, but one was having a private party and another was fully booked.
If you’re looking for super luxury travel vibe, it’s very hard to find in this area, my friend who is a pretty posh gal was a bit worried. However the Broadway Motel was IMMACULATELY clean, spacious, and very welcoming. We both were very please and highly recommend it!
A quiet country getaway but convenient for various towns around. Everything was well done in the studio (and the heat pump was very efficient for my almost-winter stay). Breakfast provisions a bonus. A relaxing place with a welcoming host. Loads better than a motel which would have been my usual choice.
This Motel is amazing and boasts modern, clean facilities. Really enjoyed having a separate lounge/kitchen space to the bedroom. We were able to park right outside our room and there is a New World supermarket directly across the road if you want to self-cater for breakfast.
The motel was on the main road but the rooms are set down the back so were very quiet. The motel is older but we expected that from reading reviews but it was very clean. It was comfortable with a small table and two chairs plus a couch. The king bed was very comfortable and cosy on a chilly night. The heat pump soon warmed up the room.
Check-in after office hours was very easy, I cannot imagine easiest. The same simple way with check-out. Great location if you want to visit Hobbit set location. We found everything needed in this accommodation. One of the best motels we had in New Zealand.
I was only there for 2 nights, but I was made very welcome. The motel was conveniently located for all needs. The purpose of my visit to the town was a special visit to nearby Hobbiton village created from the LoTR and Hobbit films. Amazing.
