Everything was great

Reviewed Apr 26, 2026Waihi is just a small town, but it suited us for visiting Whangamata for Beach Hop weekend as it was only approx 20-30min drive. Motel had good parking and the units were sunny, clean, well serviced and comfortable.
Motel is located on the main road, but the road noise isn't too bad as the road quietens down from approx 9.30pm.

The motel is next to a main road and all through the night heavy timber lorries etc passed by so disrupting our sleep, not the Motels fault, perhaps we pick a busy time unfortunately

Reviewed Feb 24, 2025My mother said it was quiet and peaceful and clean.
Hotel is a motel, very old outdated invluding bedspreads, blankets, curtains & kitchen utensils. Very basic old hotel, that can get away with the higher rate due to their not being not many options in the area.

Reviewed Oct 14, 2024Our stay at the Waihi Motel was a delightful surprise. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted by the motel's friendly and welcoming owner. Her warm hospitality immediately made us feel at home. The motel itself was beautifully clean and well-maintained. The rooms were comfortable and inviting, with everything we needed for a pleasant stay. While the decor might be a bit dated, it didn't detract from the overall cleanliness and functionality of the facilities. We were particularly impressed with the amenities, which were all in excellent condition. The kitchen was well-equipped, and the bathroom was spotless. Overall, our stay at the Waihi Motel was fantastic. We were so comfortable and impressed with the quality of the accommodation. We would definitely recommend this motel to anyone visiting the area and would happily stay there again in the future.
There was nothing that we did not like.
