Reviewed Jan 19, 2026Close to everything, it was just a walk to the shops, takeaways etc.
The room was clean, but the only thing we didn't like was that there was no proper sink for the dirty dishes. There was a container in the bathroom, but we didn't know it was for the dirty dishes until the day we left. We didn't want to wash our dirty dishes in the bathroom sink, but we had no choice but to use it. It felt very unhygienic. The rubbish bin was far too small for the bathroom and the kitchen.

Reviewed Nov 22, 2025Short walk to a few places like supermarket and pub but also just a few minutes drive from the University. Room was quite simple and mostly met our needs. It was handy being able to park right outside the room too. Plenty of hot water and a spa bath were a nice addition.
The fan in the bathroom was rather loud and some icons on the aircon remote have worn away making it more difficult to use. There was some noisy traffic at times which isn't the fault of the motel, but a pity. The lady who greeted us was very pleasant but maybe she could have found at least a couple of positive things to say about Palmerston North, yes we know it's not a world tourist centre but it must have a couple of things going for it. A hotplate and a frying pan would have been appreciated as I'm not sure a toaster and a microwave quite qualify as a kitchenette - but not a deal breaker for our short stay.
