Right in the hub, though Te Aroha isn’t large, but all that draws you to this lovely time is right there at your fingertips! Thanks for having us. Gem.
Rosalia
Nice and clean room. Very helpful staff.
Seohee
Lovely place to stay to enjoy activities all within walking distance( mineral pools, mountain, geyser and wetlands track). Sparkling clean, cozy, quiet and private rooms.Thanks to Glenys for hospitality :)
david
It’s rare that you run into an innkeeper who thoroughly enjoys hosting the wayward traveler. Glenys is one of those people. Being a Kiwi also is an advantage. Yes the rooms are clean, spacious and inviting but it’s the warmth and welcome that seals the deal for the biker on the Hauraki rail trail

The motel was clean and adequate and conveniently located.
John
Should have complained
Booked a Delux Studio room for 2 nights -less than 20sq.m. and nowhere to put a suitcase, nowhere to hang our clothes, no stove. Really spoilt our stay not what we booked through this site. Motel did not appear to be booked out, rooms were vacant. Owner was very friendly on our arrival but locked the internal door on what appeared to be a second room preventing access to more space. We certainly didn't get what we booked or what we paid for.
Philippa
Immaculate condition and super clean. Great location and quiet. Perfect for what we needed.

The environment is nice and convenient. But this unit has no kitchen facilities and the wall seems thin as we can hear the conversation next door.
Sandra
Very nice studio apartment with very pretty gardens
John
From arrival to departure Robyn and Glenys were very personable and helpful. We hope to stay there again. Charming little town with treks and hot bathes.
Carla
Nice and clean motel room and the check in was easy and owners are very pleasant. We stayed there as we were climbing Mt Te Aroha the following morning and the hotel is at the start of the track.
Eric
I unfortunately slept in due to alarm clock failure on the morning of departure but the cleaning and management staff gave me good tolerance and understanding.
Mark
Location was excellent and very reasonable price
SO HYUN
Good amenities and easy access to the mineral spa we were booked in to.
Just late check-out (wanted to leave around 11am) was not possible at all and staff moderately friendly.
Overall good for a night stay.

Great stop-over on return trip from Hobbiton to Auckland by car. Rooms were clean and welcoming, owners very helpful in suggesting restaurants and arranging a delightful visit to the hot springs spa just up the road. Would gladly return here for a night if back in the area.

The best bed ever!
We'd been awake since four o'clock so I was dropped off to sleep while he carried on to the tangihana at Paeahi. I looked under the sheets to see what you had to make the bed sooooo comfortable. Thanks for that. I slept for two hours solid - wonderful!!
