Shianne
We only spent one night and booked via Expedia. Check in was easy, car parking was easy. The rooms was clean and tidy and more then useable. Tv worked, a/c worked. We ate in the attached restaurant, and the food was perfect, service was quick and staff were friendly. We will definitely stay here again and highly recommend.
Jason
We stayed for 1 night. We drove 6 hours to get to Palmerston North to visit a sick family member in Hospital. We were expecting secure off street parking, as that was what was advertised, but there was none available as the hotel one was full (7 car spots). The guy at the check in was not interested and mumbled something about a carpark down the road that may be available. It was like we had offended him somehow by asking where we could park. After looking everywhere and not finding any carpark, we had to park 100m down the road and lug our bags the whole way. Not cool after driving half the day! The restaurant staff (1 waiter and a barman) were also odd. Watching us eat and chuckling to themselves, looking at their watches at only 8pm. No wonder the place was empty. When I went to get my partner another glass of wine (the waiter had disappeared) the barman stared at the empty glass for a good 5 seconds before nodding and refilling it. It was like the Twilight Zone and not a great experience all round.
Andrew
Clean rooms awesome service
Jeanne
The room was clean and tidy, but there was no air conditioning which really made for an uncomfortable nights sleep, the reason we stopped in before our drive up north.

If it was half the price it might be ok, but a very sub par experience overall.

Room was clean and tidy. Able to walk to The Square. Peaceful and quiet at night.
Mandy
Parking very tight, but secure behind a locked gate. The hotel is in an old building and could be renovated. Staff were nice and friendly.

Good:
* Nice welcome
* Nice size quiet room, clean
* Bath and shower were nice
* Public area's nice
* Secure parking
Not so nice
* Area seemed run down
* Hotel was rebaged Novetel which was visible on the poorly painted side of the hotel
* Room wifi was atrocious - the speed in the bar was 3 times quicker than the room. You would not be able to work from your room - staff dismissive of issue
* New TV with apps but none worked (lack of good wifi in the room) - Staff told us they were awaiting a box to make it work but we have the same TV and it just needs good wifi

We have a 7year old and a 10 month old. We hadn't been away over night for soooo long, so this night away was a huge treat. From the minute we walked through the doors the whole stay was fantastic. A wonderful welcome from Karma, made us feel so calm and relaxed. We loved our stay, both baby and our son had a fab time. Extra fun with the heritage side to the building.
The beds were very comfortable and everything clean as a whistle. Looking forward to staying again. many thanks

clean and comfortable centrally situated and great parking.
Breakfast was too expensive $25 for cereal and fruit.
Hot water was far too hot when you turn the tap on.
Floor flooded from shower. shower curtain really useless.

Pretty ordinary motel. Decor very tired. Reception staff don’t go out of their way to help. Room not serviced - they change the towels but don’t make the bed. Overall pretty sloppy

This hotel has seen better days, rooms and furnishings very outdated. Very small room with minimal storage, bathroom very pokey with slippery floor.
Not sure if some rooms have been refurbed but ours definitely hadn’t. Wouldn’t stay again.

The Distinction is located in a great spot on Cuba Street, among cafes and shops, but far enough away from the Square to avoid late night noise. The staff went over and above to accommodate our needs, including catering to our children's dietary issues, and extending our checkout time at the last minute, when our plans changed. Highly recommended.
Michelle
A very nice and welcoming reception staff the rooms were nice and big

It was just what we wanted

Were upgrade from our booked room which was appreciated, however the room felt like it was room 101 (most used room in a typical hotel).
Marks on the couch that should have been simply removed with upholstery cleaner etc. Had to wait a few minutes at the desk before Expedia booking, made 10min earlier, trickled through to Reception's screen.
Otherwise efficient and pleasant front desk service.

Disappointing in Palmerston
A potentially good hotel! Spacious and generally comfortable. Let down by easy details like an above the bath shower, antiquated aircon and a tiny TV (with no captioning). Mostly things easy to fix which was a bit disappointing.
Verified traveler
Carpark was a first in first serve basis(wasn’t told) you can hear people in the corridor all day/night and cold showers in the morning. Room was tidy but slightly outdated. Service from counter staff was average, pretty casually and not very interested in you. Theres also nothing stopping a member of the public getting to your floor.

Great place to stay. Definitely booking again.

Good stay. Just some feedback about the meals. We decided to get room service and ordered a meal each. It could be good to offer a half size meal option as tgere was way too much food for 2 people and therefore there was a lot of waste.
Thanks.

Stayed for 2 nights at Distinction. Rooms were tidy, clean and most of all - comfortable. Easy to find and central. Within walking distance to many eateries - both takeaway and sit down restaurants which was perfect for us as we had both of our children with us. Also a short 10min walk to PaknSave.
Also, the breakfast buffet was delicious..such a broad selection of food..was definitely the perfect way to end our stay. Will definitely stay again in future.

All the basics done well
Excellent location, easy walking distance to cafes, restaurants and shopping. Secure parking is great. Room was clean and well serviced. Beds comfortable. Tea and coffee making facilities OK. Bathroom amenities OK. Shower pressure a little low but acceptable. All the basics done well. Would definitely stay again.
Richard
Mostly pretty good although the phone in the room was broken which made ordering room service a little challenging. Also appeard to be a tomato sauce stain on the net curtain that hadn't been cleaned properley
Mike
Don't judge a book by it's cover. Pretty ordinary looking from the outside but very nice once inside. Checking in and out was a breeze; quick, efficient and courteous. Rooms were the same as most hotels/motels. Would happily recommend.

I do like the location and nice historical building.
But it is due for a freshen up
Facilities are getting a little run down and scratched up.
The door for the parking wouldn't open and I had to park outside on the street.

The Distinction has beautiful rooms, we had a great room with a very comfy bed. The room does not have tea/coffee amenities, but the hair dryer is very much needed! Bathroom is starting to look dated, the style of the shower is older with a shower curtain, but due to the water, the curtain was becoming mouldy. Time to update perhaps? Besides that the room is great!
We had an interruption on the morning we were leaving, at 9am we were preparing for our 11am check out when a lady walked in while we were dressing having just come out of the shower, she then shrieked, apologised and left the room. Not sure why this would happen if check out isn't until 11am? I understand getting ahead of the game but surely you should know who has checked out! We were left chocolates out the door which is always a great apology!

Distinction Palmerston North Hotel
This hotel was just Great. Location wise, your right in town, check in and check out was a breeze. The Hotel it`s self had a really nice atmosphere about it, our room was on level four, it was clean, and the beds were really comfy. Our stay included breakfast,the staff were just fantastic, and no complaints about the food. They also have a very secure car park for guests which you can access using your room card, the only down side is that their car park is small, so first come first serve, when we got back to the hotel it was full so had to car on the main road however no main concern.
We would not hesitate to stay here again.

I felt that the hotel was an oldie but a goodie. Some air cons in our rooms were tricky to use or not functioning Rm 422 Otherwise we enjoy d our stay very accommodating staff. Th barista maker probably could use help when The Restaraunt gets busy a little slow getting them out and there didn’t seem to be a system for ordering.

I was very disappointed with the age and condition of the light. I have vertigo and this was very stressful having to us your lift , as I’m unable to use the stairs and floor in 210 was very creaky

Handy location and at a good price. Was noisy on my 2nd. night due to a school ball being held in one of the conference rooms. My room had a musty odour and there was no opening window to air.

Nice warm room and very comfy bed. Front of house staff very friendly. No gym, which would have been nice.
