Was there with friends for the vineyard half! We couldn’t have been happier with centre court and the staff! Collen and Dave were amazing and felt like family after our visit! They took such good care of us! Room and grounds were clean and in perfect shape, they had all the amenities we needed and it was a great location! 10/10, highly recommend them!! Thanks for everything.

We only stayed for a single night to go wine tasting, but it was lovely!

Parking is directly outside of your door and the room had everything we needed. Linda was so helpful and tried to help us get a taxi to the vineyard but everyone was booked up. If you are wanting to arrange a taxi/uber, I highly recommend that you plan for that ahead of time. By 12PM that day, they are all booked up.

Many of the dinner options were either a quick 10 minute drive or 25 minute walk. We Ubered to dinner and walked back to grab a nightcap.

And in the morning, definitely make that coffee that is in your room. It was delicious!

We had a wonderful stay at Centre Court Motel. The room was spotlessly clean, incredibly comfortable, and beautifully decorated, modern, cosy, and clearly well looked after. We even received a friendly text from the manager letting us know our room was ready, which was such a thoughtful touch and made check-in a breeze. It's the little things like that which really set this place apart. Highly recommend for anyone staying in Blenheim, so we’ll definitely be back!

Lovely motel, albeit a bit quirky with room decorations. Very clean and beautifully maintained. Our only issues were the hedge outside unit 8 was problematic for parking and getting out of the passenger side of the car. And the plugs for the bath and sink need to be replaced with plugs with a chain as they are impossible to get out without the use of a dinner knife. But the hosts were vety helpful and friendly and the beds were wonderfully comfortable.

Amazing customer service

This review might seem strange as we never actually stayed at the Centre Court Motel, but bare with me.

I had booked a room as a stopping point from Diamond Harbour on the way up to catch the ferry across to Wellington onroute to Auckland to catch our flights home. Interislander Ferry cancelled our 11am ferry ride on Thursday at around 11am on Wednesday, leaving us scrambling.

I contacted Centre Court and explained the situation and even though it was inside he 24hr non-refundable window they agreed to cancel on their end so that I recieved a refund from hotels.com.

The owner Colleen was amazing by responding to my emails quickly and it was her idea to cancel not mine. As you can imagine we were stressed enough trying to figure out new travel plans due to the fact the Interislander could not get us on a ferry before our flights were scheduled to leave Auckland.

That is the sign of not only good management but also the sign of a good person. Thank-you Colleen (and Dave) for relieving some stress on an already very hetic day. I am sure we will return to this beautiful country again someday and I will make a special note to come stay at your place for sure.

Thanks again.

The owner of the establishment greets you kindly and offers you fresh milk in a glass jar. It was amazing after a long day of travel. I felt like I'd come home. The rooms were spacious, clean, and well kept. If it rains, there is rugby and cricket, as well as movies, on Sky TV. You can walk to downtown Blenheim in minutes, there's a little kitchen in the room, and a grocery store two blocks away. I highly recommend the Centre Court Motel. It far surpassed my expectations.
