The amenities were looking a little tired. The playground didnt look very safe although the trampine and pool seemed ok. You could tell they were doing things up ie new beds fridge and bathroom but the kitchen cabinets made the place looked dated. The wifi was a bit patchy and it was a bit noisey with the upstairs. The reception is at the back of the facility around the corner. Great eating places nearby.

The lodge was ideal for our needs - convenient and close to the parks we needed to go to for the cricket tournament we were there for and close enough to shops and takeaways. The beds were comfortable, and the shower head and water pressure were very good. Our room was cleaned every day and the staff was polite and friendly.

I liked the fact that it was nice and quiet even though right next to the main road. The lady in the reception was nice and friendly. A small thing but there was no salt available. Otherwise, everything was fine and will go again. Have been there before. Convenient to the hospital which is where I was going to be attending as a patient.

Elmore Lodge Motel

Our unit at Elmore Lodge Motel was spacious, well laid out and very cosy.
Plenty of extra bedding was available if required and cleanliness was of a very high standard. Parking was conveniently directly in front of each unit and the large front courtyard made for easy and safe vehicle movement. I recommend this motel.

We liked everything about the property. The management were very friendly and helpful people. Nice room upstairs - quiet.
Everything provided - toiletries etc. Both Chinese, and fish and chip 'Takeaways' just a few doors down the street. Very few motels available in Hastings as the 'homeless' have filled the majority of them!
