This is a very good property close to the centre of town. Warm, very clean and efficient friendly staff. Nice shower and decent sized lounge. Only slight disadvantage is the fourteen stairs to the bedroom. However when you get there the bed is very comfortable and roomy. There is some early-mid evening traffic noise but only if you open the... More

The Balmoral Lodge is conveniently placed and our unit had a separate bedroom and well appointed kitchen, complete with cooker. The staff were very friendly and everything was very clean and tidy. The spa bath was nice too. Would definitely stay here again.

Had a luxury suite and found it extremely spacious and clean. Plenty of room for bags. Bed comfort was average. Our room was by the road and so heard constant traffic noise. Other than small bath towels everything else was provided and we had a great stay. Would stay here again.

Good clean motel suitable for both business stays and tourists. We had a quit room, clean and with all the facilities we need for an overnight stop. The receptionist was very helpful and gave tips on what was on in the city as well as eating options. I would stay there again and was particularly impressed with the motel's competitive... More

We had an awesome time staying in Invercargill and the accommadation was great. We had what they called the honeymoon suite. It was very nice and very clean. A credit to the owners and staff. Think it was around $110 per night for us both.

At first glance you think the place looks a bit dated, but considering what we paid ($100/night) it was a worth it. Had all the amenities you'd expect and inside the rooms were well kept, clean and tidy. Management was very friendly and informative. Also free Wifi always a bonus. Overall very happy with the stay.

The good: Large rooms, clean and good facilities, walking distance to city centre, a really very positive first impression! The bad: The place is very very noisy! There was a group of construction workers or so that partied through the night. The next morning I complained to the person at the reception desk, and she did not even apologise. If... More

Rooms and facilities are all good but there are two reasons why I'll never stay here again: 1) noise throughout the whole night, they seemed to be hosting tradespeople (according to their vehicles) who had guests over, there were taxis coming and going throughout the night in front of our unit, no sleep for us 2) I told the manager...

It is very unfortunate that your stay was not as you expected. At this time of year our guests are families who are here to visit with family members and enjoy the festive season. The tradespeople who you have assumed were staying with us were busines owners with their company cars. We always encourage our guests to be responsible over... More

Stayed at the Balmoral Lodge for one night and really enjoyed it. The staff were friendly and helpful upon check-in providing us with a town map and gave us recommendations about where to eat. Furthermore the motel room guide contained an extensive menu list with a several of the restaurants delivering directly to the motel. The room was very clean... More
