Tina
Had a short overnight stay. The heaters worked well which made the room cosy on a cold evening. The owner was friendly & provided fresh milk for the morning. The kitchen had enough items to home cook if you wished, but we had a nice meal at the old pub & morning coffee at Barkers. A nice little stop in Geraldine.
Simon
The property is very old and has not been well maintained except for the shower which has been replaced and was great!
Rodney
Older still but clean and comfortable
Sandy
Owner very helpful and gave us a ground floor room as our ports were heavy. Room was big and although we were only there one night and didn’t use the kitchen it appeared to have everything needed and very clean. Right in town so just short walk to cafe.
tracy
Was exactly what we needed and so quiet. We will be back next year 😊
Jaimee
Very clean and affordable. Exercise area for the furry friend was a definite bonus. Staff super friendly and welcoming.
Declan
looked very average on the outside but good inside
Mark
Excellent for the price in a fun town with fine dining.
Andrzej
Very nice otherwise
Laurie
Geraldine is a great little town with many bright spots including the Geraldine Motel! Our stay was quick, but the Geraldine Motel was perfect for us! Very clean and the owners and staff were so welcoming and friendly!
Dorothy
Clean, friendly, peaceful relaxing.
Kevin
The staff at Geraldine Motel was super friendly and offering us milk for tea and coffee is quite nice. The room was clean and had everything we needed - tea, coffee, hot chocolate, tea kettle, pots, glasses and flatware. I would warn folks that if you stay in the end unit (number 13 I think) you may get odors from the local agricultur through your windows. Our friends in a unit in the middle did not have such strong odors. If I’m being picky I would suggest they update bath towels as ours were thin and faded.
Jennifer
Very welcoming and helpful, pet friendly, close to town centre. The room was clean and had everything we needed including a tea pot!

Matthew
Old room, very dated, but clean and Tidy
Sonia
This is an older property but clean & tidy and a great location. Easy walk to shopping/restaurants & also to connect onto riverside walking track. Standard kitchen facilities but had high quality tea, coffee, hot chocolate which was a nice touch. Good off street parking & outdoor chairs/table. Self service laundry available for guests. Basic bathroom amenities so best to bring your own. Would definitely stay again.

Jeni
Excellent large studio unit. Very friendly helpful staff, and our 2 small dogs were ade to feel very welcome.
Angelique
Well priced and the greeting was super friendly.
The room was clean and comfortable, with a huge balcony.
A sensor light in the parking area for room 3 would be nice.
It was a bit dark until I got to the light switch for the stairs.

I really like a cafetierre, so it was a pleasant surprise to have one. I especially booked the unit with the balcony but it was dirty and obviously hadn't been cleaned for months.
maureen
Walking distance to village
Dianne
Great location. Comfortable beds, good showers. Pleasant friendly owner.
While this is a dog friendly motel which is great for those who have dogs I see in information that owners are charged $20 per dog - seems a lot if someone had 2 small dogs..

Great value
This hotel was cheaper than most we have stayed at in new zealand but the welcome was friendly and efficient, the room had everything you needed, the bed was comfortable and our room had a large balcony. Although on the road, we were not disturbed by any noise overnight. Overall a great value stay.
Jacqueline

Good clean place to stay however walls very thin and a lot of noise from neighbors.

I cant help but give this place 5 stars all the way through! the staff were sooo easy to deal with and accommodating to late arrivals with lights and heater on when we arrived. The glass bottles of milk are amazing!

Peter
Friendly reception and great facilities
Chris
Good people, good service
Cath
Great location, walking distance to everything you could need. Room was available early which was great coz it was a long weekend so very busy. Comfy bed and spacious. Room service was missed after first night but not really a major and the balcony didn't lock and had a fire escape ladder straight up to the room from the street which had my partner concerned as there was no in Room safe. But I mean it's Geraldine so if course there was no incident and would def stay again based on price and location
Robyn
I cannot recommend them enough. Thorston and Caroline were wonderful hosts and were extremely helpful with changing my booking when I had to stay longer in Geraldine due to repairs to my car.
It was also wonderful that my dog was able to stay in the unit with me.

We had the 2 story 2 bedroom unit for 4 adults and 2 children, it was just right, nice and warm comfortable and quite.
Only downside is we had two vehicles but only parking for one. Other vehicle parked on the street but there's a camera watching so all good.

Clive
The first time we stayed here, we were in a different room. Had a very powerful shower which we loved. This time we were in a different room and to the right of the office. Shower was not as good. Single beds were too soft, as we prefer firm beds. Think it maybe an older section of the Motel.
Satwant
Lovely accommodation with parking. Comfortable clean and has everything a traveller needs. The hosts/ staff are very friendly helpful professional accessible
Nancy
The owner was friendly and welcoming and our room very comfortable- thankyou!
Linda
Overnight stay
Booked this motel based on rating of 8/8 but was really disappointed. Unit was spacious enough but dated. No screens on windows and did not appreciate dead bugs on bed. If the blurb says complimentary toiletries then they should be provided.
First impressions are lasting impressions. Short walk to restaurants and shops.

Luana
I'd like to thank the owner's of this motel. We have been travelling the South Is. since the 30th Jan and your motel was the first very spacious 2 bedroom unit we had come across. Your lounge suite was comfy as, the kitchenette suited our needs. The shower pressure amazing. We were very impressed if I'm ever back this way I'll definitely be stopping in.
John D
Friendly staff. Easy access to shops, restaurants etc. Some noise from main road although not overnight
JOY
Very damaged dining chair which looked as though it had been in that unsafe condition for some time. I left said chair, on it's side in the lounge area as I felt that would gain the managers attention.
Verified traveler
I can highly recommend this property. I would certainly stay there again.
Debra
A very comfortable king bed to sleep in and good kitchen facility. Nice and clean yet a little musty due to the age of the building. It was very hot 35c that night and we had no air con but the proprietor gave us two big electric fans. Much appreciated! Friendly and helpful people. Thank you.
Michael
Nice and clean and spacious
The unit was clean, bright and welcoming, The view of the garden was lovely. The bed was comfortable and had a good shower. The kitchenette had all the things you need. A good place to stay

Nice stop to stay.
Gary
Ok, so it is what it is. Pre-fab bungalows with rudimentary furnishings. But it was for one night and it’s a quiet enjoyable little town. Clean, friendly and close to everything. Just don’t expect creature comforts and enjoy the experience!
Grant
Spacious room and great showers
Liz
Nice guy on check in, great location, nice room, BUT
...no hot water for a shower in the morning!
So I had the quickest, coldest shower of my life.
Emailed the owner who refused any refund and told me we should have waited around until it got fixed.
That wasn't possible as we had to get on the road - and for $165 a night you would expect hot water to be available on call. Isn't that what we pay for?
So all 3 of us either had a cold shower or no shower. The people in the next room had the same problem.
Really disappointing as it was looking like a great deal up to that point.

Most clean motel I've stayed in

Excellent layout, very peaceful, spacious, highly recommended. The only fault I would mention is the toilet paper holder is difficult for some people to reach.
