This is definitely a 2 star motel. Parking very tight and room quite dated.
On the plus side…. nice and quiet and very close to town. 30 sec walk to four square and a great early morning bakery. So that was a major plus for us.

The staff is nice and friendly. The room was very clean, and it had everything we needed, including a small fridge, cups, dishes, and cutlery, a pot, a pan, and cleaning equipment.

The room is a bit small for one adult and two teens, but we didn't mind at all. It's only for a short stay, and we are happy with what we paid.

The Motel is pretty quiet; it's centrally located in the heart of Paihia.

Property was in a great location. The area was quiet. Affordable, yet spacious. We were able to make some of our own meals with the use of the fridge, stove and microwave that were provided.
Minor concerns: lightbulb missing in the storage off the bathroom, a few carpet stains, the hot water tap needs to be locked in place as it turns when you turn it on.

Overall the property was nice. The lady at the front did not speak English so she had to call someone to translate. Not a big deal. They were very nice. The beds were a bit worn and there was no shower curtain on the shower. There also was no fan in the bathroom so it could get very steamy.

There were many maintenance items that needed attending to that were not done. Because we had secured our reservation by credit card, when we checked in the manager billed the entire stay of five days on the credit card. On the third day we were advised of an impending cyclone so we advised the manager that we would only be staying four days. The manager refused to credit us back the last day that they had billed us on our credit card.!!! Not good!!

Our room was very clean and spacious and in a great location close to everything, within a few minutes walk. The owner was lovely and was more than willing to help to make our stay as enjoyable as possible. I highly recommend this place and would definitely stay here again.

Lovely Paihia hotel

Lovely hotel for our family of four, had everything we needed and located a short stroll away from shops, restaurants and ferry to Rusell. Very pretty seaside town in the Bay of Islands and Outrigger is a fantastic place to stay when exploring the area. There was a change of management when we arrived but this did not disrupt our stay, both managers were very helpful and provided lots of information about the area. We really enjoyed our stay.

Not good if is weather bad with teenagers!!

The weather when we arrived was windy and wet so this review is based on having to spend a great deal of time in the room. We are a family with teenage kids and had booked for 3 nights.

Firstly, like a great number of other motels in NZ, they say the room is for four adults. It’s for 2 but they shove another bed in the bedroom, so no room for bedside cabinet and hardly any room to move around the beds. Other bed is shoved in the living area. So not comfy watching TV.Kitchenette was pretty badly stocked.

Internet policy was the worst on our trip. We were given vouchers for 1GB with a code. That may sound a lot but when you have teenage kids stuck indoors watching YouTube then that doesn’t last long. If you went out and came back you had to put the code in again. Very annoying and one of the owners told our kids that we would have to pay for the internet as they used too much.

Says they have Sky TV. Total of 9 channels which included about 4 Sky ones. No news channel and no Australian Open Tennis. Most places we stay on our trip has 50+ TV/Sky channels.

Anyway, the weather forecast was not good for the remainder of our stay so we left after one night.
We felt disappointed, as the rooms were not cheap, and the motto we had when we left was “Every expense spared” with this place!!!
