"Have just spent a night there and found it a great place to stay. One block away from the main square so handy to most things. The rooms are nice and bed was comfortable. My initial room was on the second floor sharing a wall with the gym so a little noisy but the staff were really helpful and organised a quieter room to move to. Dinner was great with a big selection on the menu and Breakfast was also good with plenty to choose from. Overall a great stay and I’ll be back."

"Brilliant motel. I travel to Palmerston North on a regular basis and this is one of the best motels I have stayed at. Large rooms, comfortable bed, good size kitchen with plenty of crockery. Large bathroom with good amenities and lovely large walk in shower. Very clean upgraded property. Although on busy main road, Fitzherbert Ave, motel sits at back of property and is very quiet. Lovely walks around the area, and close to square. I would recommend this motel, with friendly management which makes your stay very pleasant."
