After getting lost finding the motel in the rain it was great to be greeted by friendly hosts who had gone out of their way to ensure our accomodation was just right for us. Even better was the discount we got for being senoirs. Our 2 bedroom unit was perfect giving our elderly Mother her privacy. It was well equiped... More

Great, friendly, accomodating service. Clean rooms, everything worked. Not the most modern bathroom but functioned well. Comfortable bed. Kitchen had all we needed. Sky TV and wi-fi. We had a two room unit still very quiet.

I've booked this hotel via Agoda.com for 4 nights starting Sun. I arrived late Sun night (around 9pm-I've called and advised the owner it would be the case) and went straight to bed. I found the rooms and furniture/furnishings were quite old,mismatched (as in possibly bought second-hand) and generally seen better days. When I tried to use the heater, it... More

this was our second stay and both visits were good. The staff are brilliant - nothing is a bother. The rooms are old but well organised and the furniture is very comfortable. Full Sky, free WIFI and a spa and sauna meant that we were never left wondering what to do. There is also a lovely park next door.

Friendly and accommodationg welcome from the owner, helpful to find somewhere undercover for our motorbikes which included a free upgraded room. Linen beautiful, towels especially fluffy and nice. Reasonable 20 min walk into town, a welcome wander after riding motorbikes all day Extra visitors of ants in the evening when we returned wasn't great, although they were only in kitchen... More

Our group of four stayed here one night on the way to the Bay of Islands. Faded Glory? No, I don't think this place ever had a glory day. The rooms were musty, the carpets were stained, the towels were threadbare and the beds were unforgiving. We noted the spa and sauna but were not attracted to them. The hotel... More

A group of us stayed here booking out five smaller units. It was over the time of the kapahaka comps and we were lucky to get any accommodation at all in Whangarei as we left it a bit late. Everything about the place was great (very good price, no road noise, easy to find, friendly office staff, tidy units, free... More

An older style motel with good "old fashioned" friendly owners. This motel was good value for clean basic accomodation. The owners were very helpful and we appreciated their assistance in storing our box of fish bound for Australia in their coolroom overnight. They didn't have to go "above and beyond" but they seemed to genuinely want to help their guests.... More

Facilities leave a lot to be desired, manager was very helpful, free spa is a bonus. Could do with an major overhaul in decor, information centre is just a short walk away.
