This was the best motel we have stayed at for a long time. The service was 10/10. Michelle went out of her way to provide us with the best hospitality. Nothing was too much trouble. We were unsure if we were going to stay a third night depending if we could get a ferry sailing. Michelle held the room for us until it was confirmed we couldn’t get an earlier sailing. Mary, the owner, organized it so that we didn’t have to move rooms given we had to stay a night longer. Definitely highly recommend for high quality service and very nice and clean rooms.

Staff were excellent on arrival and during our extended stay (was a 4 night trip, extended another 2 nights + another 4 nights).
Staff blocked out dates for us as we had a sick family member & then a funeral to attend.
They went out of their way to make our time at Lugano memorable.
Wifi was a little difficult sometimes, but a reset sorted this issue.
Bed comfortable, a little noise from road, clock tower but an excellent stay.

We had a great stay at Lugano motor lodge! Great location within walking distance to New World grocery, the Warehouse and the various dining places. The parking is easy and the lady at the front desk is super friendly and helpful! She even gave us a bottle of creamy milk for our coffee when we checked in. She stayed until 7pm till we finished our laundry. Across the lodge is the beautiful Seymour Square where we took a morning walk after breakfast before heading out. The room is clean with dishes microwave and a small fridge, convenient for housing our groceries. The bed is super comfortable and we had a good night rest. We recommend this place for safe, convenient and comfortable road trips in the South Island!

Friendly Stay in Blenheim

Excellent place to stay in Blenheim—clean, comfortable rooms, with easy access to all the Marlborough wineries. They also had a Netflix guest pass for the TVs in the room (though the wifi was a bit slow at times). The hosts were around whenever we had a question: they were very nice and friendly. Bonus: we met their two little kittens and they were happy to have us hang out with them. Nice and charming little spot perfect for our two-night stay in Blenheim.

Blenheim Wine tour and roadtrip rest stop

Clean motel with adequate space, clean and comfortable room and centrally located.

However, Negative points.

Paper thin walls ensured we got to experience our neighbours watching ‘Strangers Things’ full blast at 3am.

The room was boiling hot because the AC didn’t work.

WIFI was unreliable from 6pm onwards.

A great place to stay

A very good experience checking in. Got an upgrade which was great. The room was large, lounge living area, and two seperate bedrooms. The athroom was large with a very good shower and a seperate toilet which is most unusual for this type of place. All was clean and well stocked. The manager was helpful, friendly, and a had a great sense of humour. Very good experience over all

We stayed for one night and enjoyed a quick and friendly check in. The room was very clean and the bed was good. The bathroom was a bit dated, but plenty good enough. Would definitely return.

The most comfortable bed I have ever slept in. Really generous sized room with a little balcony out to the side (we stayed in a room at the end). Quiet, sunny and very warm. I will stay here again definitely.

Absolutely loved this property. We were at the end of a two week driving holiday around the South Island and we both felt this property and town were the pick.

Had two great meals in town and it was only a very short walk into town which was terrific. It was nice to not need the car for a day.

The room was well equipped and well set out with two large lounge chairs to relax and read or watch TV. Also had a small dining setting. Bed was comfortable and the blockout blinds worked well. Large bathroom too. Also HD Netflix was available in the room.

The room was spotless. Really clean. The property has great easy to understand recycling too.

You can tell the owners are proud of their proprty. Judy (the owner) was so nice. Let us check in really early after we arrived well ahead of time. Was so helpful and friendly to chat too. Felt like being back home.

Couldn't recommend this property enough. Also great pricing.

Delightful property that is right across the street from a very charming park in the middle of town. Parking for each of the units. Walkable to nearby grocery store. All this AND it is right in the middle of the wine country!

Clean, tidy and comfortable

We arrived late, room was ready and waiting as was a car park!
We were very impressed how easy and fuss free it was to arrive after hours.
Despite the bathroom and joinery being a little dated they were very clean. Furnishings lovely though (liked the leather couch!)
