The room we wasn’t very clean, dust on skirting boards, hair on carpet.
The bathroom floor is very old with ripped Lino, the shower looks dirty where the silicone is in the joins. Bathroom heater had no chord so wasn’t useable, fan in bathroom very noisey & it goes when light is turned on. The fan heater in main room was also very noisey, tried to keep it going at night as it was cold, but it kept disturbing us. Also traffic noise day & night as was on main road though we were towards the back of the property. We came home at 745pm to find a car in our allocated park, reception closed & no one answered the bell. Had to door knock to find who’s car it was, they refused to move so we parked in their units carpark

Wonderful accommodation and very helpful and professional staff. Will stay again
Quentin
Very good. Clean tidy
Kimberley
Very nice staff. Clean and tidy. On busy road so a bit noisy for our liking. Room and facilities a bit dated.
Geoffrey
Unit was much bigger than we needed. The kitchen had all the facilities needed. The TV was a bonus with loads of sky channels. Very comfortable king size bed. The only downside was the noise from the trucks thundering by.
Carol
Well located, older style motel. The main bedroom area is large with new carpet installed. Bathroom and kitchen areas are due for a refurbishment. However everything you need for a one night stop over is available. There’s onsite parking but some spaces are tricky to get into - so be patient and it’ll be fine. Easy access to fast food, supermarket and Caroline Bay.
Michelle

Very friendly and helpful staff who provided a large, comfortable and well equipped room. Conveniently located and easy to find. Strongly recommended,
Barbara
Tidy room. Handy location but noisy with traffic.
Elvy
Room advertised spa bath. It was obvious this has not worked for a long time. The room is a \"basement\" / lower level than the carpark. I assume this is the reason for the Wi-Fi performance not being suitable for my business needs.
Harriet

Jaroslav

Lori

Very clean and tidy, comfortable bed, easy parking, and a convenient location.

We loved the kitchen area. It made our stay so much easier. There was also a great laundry room. It was nice having clean clothes again 😌
ANN
It was a very short stay for us very happy with our accommodation.
Robert
This is a value property…a bit dated, you need patience with the shower and a fair bit of road noise for a non-city person.
Che
Photos provided wasnt the same to the room i was in could only have a 10 min shower then have no hot water couldnt run a hot spa bath, no complimentary milk, black mould on all backing of curtains and around window sills and door frames glass. When booking total was $420 for 2 adults 3 kids then was told to pay $180 extra for the kids to stay, bed was hard as a rock, heaters didnt provide much heat but was ok, limited towels told to reuse towels. Havw taken photo's and will be taking the matter further
Richard
I’m just happy
Ross
Good motel
Kay
Friendly check-in and was upgraded to larger room . Was ok . Very dated property and could do with upgrade otherwise all ok for a one night stay
Jen
Spa jets should be at other end, can’t lie back & relax, taps are in the way. Still enjoyed it though.
Very clean, beautiful unit. Very quiet & peaceful.
Thank you,

John
Didn’t like traffic noise.
Sky
The bed was really uncomfortable, the room was nice and warm which was good - the bathroom was clean but you can tell it does need some work as the walls are peeling and looks quite untidy.
Elise-Maree
More what I didn't like. The bed was so hard I couldn't sleep, then there was heaps of noise and banging which was quiet scary at midnight. Don't like no duvet cover, just a duvet inner, not impressed with that. I was in what was classed as a deluxe unit, it wasn't. Definitely only 3 star. Could have done with four pillows on the bed and certainly didn't seem like a king size bed. Easy check in, friendly staff.
Simon
Staff very accommodating allowing us to get in early in time to change before we went to an event. Good location and our rear room relatively quiet
Lindsay
would never stay again as it was just too noisey for a light sleeper. No sleep at all till after 2am
Melvyn
Clean, comfortable & convenient. On the down side, the internet is very slow & keeps locking out & the road is noisy at all times.
Chee
very nice
kerri
It's on the main road, lots noisy trucks going pass

Very clean, spacious room. Everything you could want for an overnight stop. Great shower, plentiful amenities and fantastic service. Even though I checked in late the manager was very kind and welcoming. Would definitely recommend staying here.

We stayed two nights now the bedroom was great & warm the bed was hard and sunk in the middle so my partner & i woke up sore & we could here everything going on in the next rooms plus traffic outside.
Verified traveler
Clean, comfortable and spacious.
Kerry
Although nothing intrinsically wrong, the room was cold and midwinter with only a blow heater to heat the room up which was noisy. Sadly the truckdrivers driving past ignored the local laws and were using engine breaks until well into the evening as well.
Dick
Clean room - all amenities great, close to town area, friendly staff, easy parking
Benoit
Nice and clean but close of the highway so it noisy.
Gillian
Room was very nice.
Peter
Good location. Good facilities.

Ideal location for food outlets and great walks.
A home away from home.

This was our first stop on our way to Queenstown from Christchurch Airport. It seems like a small family-run business, and the owners were really nice. Beth, at the reception, was exceptionally friendly and helpful. She gave us tips on what we could do and where to find good food. Check-in and check-out processes were also a breeze. The room we stayed in was clean and well-maintained. Would definitely recommend this motor lodge to anyone looking for a stopover on their road trip.

Parklands is easy to find as it is just off main road, but far enough away from the traffic to ensure a quite stay.
It is the cleanest hotel I have stayed in for a while, friendly hosts (even carried my bag up the stairs). I would definitely stay here again. Thank you.

Comfortable and warm and a sunny room. Very good value for money for accomodation in Timaru.

On a busy road this property with single glazing was extremely noisy. This, coupled with either being very cold or running the loud rattling heater, resulted in a very poor night's sleep. I'm not usually fussy - spent many years sleeping in a tent or a hole - but this was a shocker. I won't stay again.

The property is situated on the main SH1 close to busy junction. We stayed there on a Friday night and the road was horrific. The owner told me that this was a regular Friday night problem caused by boy racers.using this section of the road for illegal road races in highly charged illegal cars and bikes. Apparently the police haven’t been able to stop it.
Just for the record the sound nitric charged engines, screeching brakes, big bore exhausts and reving engines went on from approx 10.30pm until approx 3.00am.
Additionally this problem will not just affect this property but all the other motels/hotels situated on this section of road.
If you must stay there avoid Friday night!

The room had an awful smell probably the fragrance used. The carpet was wet and patchy and looked horrible.

Stayed here for our last night in New Zealand. Was walking distance to restaurants. Room was clean. Nothing spectacular but good value.

Parking was horribly tight. A little dated but kept in very clean order. Comfortable.
Bev
Very pleased with the room - we decided to stay an extra day!

Back to the 70's
The bed was very comfortable and the motel was centrally situated. The bathroom and kitchen were very tired and in need of renovation. The stove was old and the racks were not clean. The bathroom walls above the shower box were in need of a good clean. The unit looked as though very little renovation had been done since the 1970's.

Lovely guy runs this motel. I was made so welcome. On the main road so a bit noisy but for an over- night stay it is good value.
Graham
Good clean room. More than adequate for a 1 night stay. Only negative 15 minute walk to town centre and beach.
David
Good shopping nearby--for travellers

Lovely greeting on arrival. Unit was very clean. Bed was the most comfortable bed I have slept in for ages, even better than my own. Bathroom was well-equipped and shower was delicious.

Booked a unit as we like to cook where possible whilst travelling. This unit (No 8) had large bedrooms, lounge, kitchen and a great bathroom. Very comfortable

Would definitely recommend it to friends.
The room was great, and we loved the location as we had a nice walk to the ocean and close to all the amenities.

Clean and comfortable
Second stay here at Parklands and will stay again on our way to Dunedin from Christchurch. Wonderful staff, clean rooms and great facilities. Perfect when traveling with young families.

Friendly and comfortable
Very friendly people and a spacious comfortable room. Little choice of eating in the area other than take aways, but the chinese across the road was fine.
Alan
great place to stay.
Great service, close to main part of town, even though its on the main highway, was quiet at night.
Patrick
Upgraded, lovely spot, only there one night. Able to cook supper which is a nice option
