10/10
Reviewed Mar 28, 2026The location was in a lovely little town that was more representative of New Zealand than the more touristy areas. It was also easy to find as it was just off the main road. There were some nice places to eat locally and a supermarket nearby which was very convenient. The accommodation was very well presented with comfortable beds.
Nothing we didn't like.

Reviewed Mar 5, 2026The room was a good size and very clean. The bed was comfortable. Most of what I found was what I expected. The location to where my function was was across the road - awesome!
Overall, I had no complaints. Though it was 4 Stars, I felt that the price was quite steep for Murchison. There was not much else wrong. Maybe a few (more) Sky Channels
10/10
Reviewed Mar 4, 2026I guess if I'm honest, I didn't actually expect a great deal given this is a small town but I was pleasantly surprised to find the accommodation was quite exceptional! The small town vibe is just perfect - the pub & Rivers cafe are both friendly gathering places & our dad, as always, got chatting to other patrons. The shop assistants are all friendly & good for a laugh & banter - with some surprisingly great shopping finds! Beautiful scenery - loved our time (though less than 24 hours) in Murchison even though we were pretty full on the whole time (getting in the sightseeing options - Maruia Waterfall & Buller Gorge Swingbridge etc).
Unfortunately, I am still a smoker & while I am completely happy to go off accommodation property to smoke, I would really prefer if they provided an ashtray (or at least some receptacle to put smoke butts in). My sister & I picked up our butts & disposed of them in bins elsewhere but I suspect other guests may not be so considerate. If you provide an ashtray/container at the property edge though, I would think other smokers would use it to keep the streets clean & tidy.

Reviewed Feb 10, 2026Huge, well appointed, immaculate and very comfortable suite. Slept very well. Amazing for a one night stay and would have been fantastic for a lot longer as there is so much to do in the area. We were just passing through. The lady on the front desk was incredibly helpful. Murchison was also an unexpected little gem - historic buildings and the Cow Shed was great for dinner.
9/10
Reviewed Feb 9, 2026Modern, luxury feel (with a price to match). Units were really well equipped, incredibly clean and comfy and a really good size. Location just off the centre of town meant it was nice and quiet, without being too far from shops and cafes etc
Although very nice, I'm not sure what you really get for the cost over a more conventional motel

Reviewed Jan 8, 2026We loved everything! So clean, comfortable, and modern. The staff were so friendly and efficient. So close to the Main Street and the rugby oval across the road. The town is busy during the day but still has the feel of a small country town. We wish we could have stayed longer. We’ve spent three weeks on the north and South Island and this was our favourite place to stay and town to visit by far!
Our room was on the road side so if you had your window open at night which we like to do it was quite noisy, but the accomodation was so lovely this really wasn’t a big problem……we just shut the window!
