Unfortunately we found after we checked in that the pool was closed due to treatment. That it would remain closed for at least the week. We also found the rooms not up to the 9.2 rating the motel had previously received. We were left disappointed. The staff member at check in made a rude comment about the changes we had asked for. While we appreciate the changes were made, if it was such a hardship we could have gone elsewhere. There was no reason to be so rude. We found that the photos made the motel seem a lot nicer and spacious then it is. We were also told that we would be charged an additional 18% for using expedia. It was very confusing. ##### Kelly Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2026 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Akaroa on the Beach Apartments](https://www.expedia.ca/Akaroa-Hotels-Akaroa-On-The-Beach-Apartments.h9626017.Hotel-Information) > > [Maruia Hot Springs](https://www.expedia.ca/Lewis-Pass-Hotels-Maruia-Hot-Springs.h17262379.Hotel-Information) > > [Dusky Lodge - Hostel](https://www.expedia.ca/Kaikoura-Hotels-Dusky-Lodge.h13271116.Hotel-Information) > > [Aqua Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Lake-Tekapo-Hotels-Aqua-Lodge.h51669090.Hotel-Information) > > [Duvauchelle Seaside Motel](https://www.expedia.ca/Duvauchelle-Hotels-Duvauchelle-Seaside-Motel.h20930343.Hotel-Information) > > [Kumiko's Guest House](https://www.expedia.ca/Waipara-Hotels-Kumikos-Guest-House.h98505532.Hotel-Information) > > [Carrick Lodge Motel](https://www.expedia.ca/Cromwell-Hotels-Carrick-Lodge-Motel.h9626119.Hotel-Information) > > [Lakeview Cottage](https://www.expedia.ca/Lake-Tekapo-Hotels-Lakeview-Cottage.h37916190.Hotel-Information) > > [Stopforths Premium Accommodation](https://www.expedia.ca/Hokitika-Hotels-Stopforths-Premium-Accommodation.h23236034.Hotel-Information) > > [Motueka TOP 10 Holiday Park](https://www.expedia.ca/Motueka-Hotels-Motueka-TOP-10-Holiday-Park.h7015031.Hotel-Information) > > [Nomads Rest](https://www.expedia.ca/Lake-Tekapo-Hotels-Nomads-Rest.h27954748.Hotel-Information) > > [The Reservation B&B](https://www.expedia.ca/Gore-Hotels-The-Reservation.h9679423.Hotel-Information) > > [Sundowner Motel](https://www.expedia.ca/Greymouth-Hotels-Sundowner-Motel.h19166307.Hotel-Information) > > [Falcons Nest](https://www.expedia.ca/Cromwell-Hotels-Falcons-Nest.h31053004.Hotel-Information) > > [Kaikoura Luxury Apartments](https://www.expedia.ca/Kaikoura-Hotels-Waves-Luxury-Apartments.h45744296.Hotel-Information) > > [Ormlie Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Waiohiki-Hotels-Ormlie-Lodge.h9626443.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Queenstown Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Queenstown-Hotels-Hilton-Queenstown-Resort-Spa.h4268206.Hotel-Information) > > [Sennen House](https://www.expedia.ca/Picton-Hotels-Sennen-House.h7120592.Hotel-Information) > > [The Blue Pub](https://www.expedia.ca/Methven-Hotels-The-Blue-Pub.h9628177.Hotel-Information) > > [Horse and Jockey Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Hamilton-Hotels-Horse-And-Jockey-Inn.h29357900.Hotel-Information) > > [Ribbonwood Country House](https://www.expedia.ca/Cheviot-Hotels-Ribbonwood-Country-House.h15876059.Hotel-Information) > > [JetPark Hotel Hamilton Airport](https://www.expedia.ca/Hamilton-Hotels-Jet-Park-Hotel-Hamilton-Airport.h4281130.Hotel-Information) > > [Kaikoura Waterfront Apartments](https://www.expedia.ca/Kaikoura-Hotels-Kaikoura-Waterfront-Apartments.h46121792.Hotel-Information) > > [Avon Motel](https://www.expedia.ca/Hawera-Hotels-Avon-Motel.h9629592.Hotel-Information) > > [Discovery Countrytime Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Omarama-Hotels-Discovery-Countrytime-Hotel.h1145773.Hotel-Information) > > [Te Anau Central Backpackers](https://www.expedia.ca/Te-Anau-Hotels-Te-Anau-Central-Backpackers.h84134490.Hotel-Information) > > [Two Rivers Boutique Lodge Ohakune](https://www.expedia.ca/Ohakune-Hotels-Two-Rivers-Ohakune.h109320695.Hotel-Information) > > [Abel Tasman Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Marahau-Hotels-Abel-Tasman-Lodge.h20040118.Hotel-Information) > > [Lakes Lodge Okataina](https://www.expedia.ca/Lake-Okataina-Hotels-Lakes-Lodge-Okataina.h88669411.Hotel-Information)
