huge double spa

Lovely friendly staff for check-in. Location at the end of main street makes it so you can walk all around town. Spotlessly clean throughout with good hot water and shower. Very quiet on the night we stayed.
Smart TV was difficult to manage, so I didn't bother using it. It was explained when we checked in but couldn't get it working properly again on free to air TV later. No big deal, as the news has all been bad lately!!
Close to centre of town.
Room was clean and the bed was pretty comfy. Came equipped with everything you would need for a night or two. Staff were very friendly
Room was a little small - for example there wasnt enough space between the sofa and the bed and the placement was a little odd and only two sets of cutlery, plates etc provided which I understand why but might be nice to have more of especially cutlery
Great bathroom!
Hate battling with the cartoned milk provided, and definitely only the bare basics provided in the kitchenette. Had what was needed but it felt very impersonal.
Sehr schönes Motel mit gehobener Ausstattung unweit von Coromandel Zentrum. Das Motel eignet sich um die Gegend zu erkunden oder einfach um zu relaxen. Unser Gastgeber hat uns sehr freundlich empfangen und wir haben uns in der Unterkunft sehr wohl gefühlt. Klare Weiterempfehlung.
החדר הייה סך הכל בסדר אך האיש שקבל אותנו הייה כאוס ולא נחמד כאשר שאלתי אותו איפה יש מכונת כביסה ומייבש הוא אמר שזה בתשלום וכאשר אמרתי לו שזה לא נכון הוא כעס ואמר אבל לא כתוב שזה בחינם וכאשר הוכחתי לא שזה לא נכון הוא כעס והוציא בצורה לא יפה כסף מהקופה שלו ואמר לי כך ולך תכבס כמובן שאמרתי לו שאי לא מבקש נדבות וכמובן שלא לקחתי את הכסף אמרתי תודה לך על התנהגות גסה והלכתי ועוד דבר לא מדוייק בהזמנה שכתוב שייש חלונות עם בידוד כפול ואין ולי זה דבר חשוב
סך הכל החדר הייה בסדר חוץ מהתקלות האלה אולי כדאי שישימו אדם אחר בקבלה שיודע לעבוד עם ציבור
The property was very clean and comfortable. It had everything needed and was conveniently located.
Exceptionally clean and well fitted suite. Quiet, spacious, comfy bed, brilliant shower, strong WiFi. Perfect location for nice 5 minute stroll to town centre. David the owner was very helpful and works very hard to keep everything tip top.
Not a dislike, just an error on B…com, washing machine and tumble dryer are in a separate room next to the Office, which is actually much better.
Everything! Comfortable, clean and cozy!

Le camere che sanno di nuovo, accessoriate, un letto molto comodo e a pochi passi a piedi dal centro del villaggio di Coromandel. Siamo tornati una seconda volta e avremmo voluto prolungare il soggiorno se ci fosse stato bel tempo.,una comoda lavanderia e il posto auto proprio davanti alla camera. Accoglienza calorosa

The accomodation was in a quiet part of town, was speacious, clean, tidy and very comfortable. The host was very approachable and available when required.
La qualité de l'accueil et la propreté des lieux
After a week travelling through Northland, we found that David and Olive Motel was the best of all. Having the owner on site is a big plus too. David gave us the best advice re dinner and breakfast dining options. The motel was extremely clean, modern,conveniently situated, plus, and this is a big one, the shower did not leak water on the floor!! Very impressed - and made Coromandel a delight to stay at. Thank you.
A heater in the bathroom and heated towel rails would be great
It was fine
Everything was perfect! The room was clean, large and confortable.
The owner assigned our unit parking spot to another guest when we were out of motel. When we inquired about it, he responded angrily, telling me to find another place to park. I decided to leave the motel as I felt uneasy. I checked out of the motel a day early, even though I had paid for an extra night. I did not request a refund. Additionally, there was no soap or shampoo in the motel. It is highly overrated and overpriced. I will not return there.
Luvly tidy motel room
We were very upset when the man was so rude to us in the morning.We were aware we were 5 minutes over the 10am leave time but didn't think it was necessary for the man to be so rude when arriving at our door.For this reason our stay felt unpleasant and we will never stay at or recommend this motel to any one
The property was clean and comfortable. Not crowded like other motels. Great and friendly service.
Spacious and excellent location for town
Clean tidy and close to shops and pubs
Rate this motel 5 stars. Our room was lovely and the whole complex was so well maintained. The quality of the room was outstanding and the bathroom was great. Little touches like the outdoor cushions made it very welcoming. The owner was very accommodating and gave great recommendations on where to eat.
Great location in Coromandel town. Fresh and newly refurbished room with plenty of space. Good amenities, spacious bathroom and nice courtyard. David was a great host and had many local tips.
Everything was very tidy and clean. A little cramped, though, and the bed was small.
A bigger bed.
Rooms were spacious, modern and very clean
Large room. Close to the centre of town, easy walk to dinner, coffee, tourist information
A bit noisy being on the main road, it was warm so we needed the windows open.
Room was clean, staff friendly. Highly recommend.
Nice place to stay
Room up grade at no extra
Very good choice for accommodation in Coromandel. The room and bathroom are big and very clean, the outside is also very well maintained. There's a possibility to do laundry and parking is available as well as an EV charger. Location is good and there are cafes and restaurants within walking distance.
A credit to the owner. Modern, clean, organised. Very well appointed.
Quiet location close to the town
Spotlessly clean. V well equipped. Everything u need. Bbq and laundry facilities so useful. Location only 5 mins flat walk to town.. Brilliant

unit was clean and tidy, air con a bonus
Booking.com advertising online in NZ with US $. A real trap for those who miss that on website. One bedroom unit is not suitable for 4 individual adults. Three single beds in lounge left very little space for guests movement. Owner checking on number of guests using the room was rude embarrassing for seniors being told on arrival that the 5th guest was staying across the road because he refused to accommodate in a separate unit
Outstanding motel, Outstanding service, outstanding quality, and outstanding comfort. Great 1st impression on arrival with quality, clean buildings & car park. Warm welcome by David and helpful services answering questions, & resetting the internet for us. The room was in mint condition, very clean and very well built & maintained with high quality finishes. After all of that you come to the best bit - the linen, pillows & beds. So very high quality & comfortable you don't want to get up. A wonderful weekend stay, Thank you David & family.
This was a lovely motel and the owner was kind and gave us a map of the things to do.
