Most Motels are clean-this was super clean and most of all the Staff were warm and friendly and helpful. Even helped lift our suitcase for us. Also nice point free videos to loan- never had this before. Would highly recommend. I am 74 years and my daughter 50 - thanks Ann and Tracey.

Great position, nice and clean with friendly managers. Our friends thought the list of rules hilarious, VERY BOARDING SCHOOL. "there will be no parties etc. Beds are horrible, as is the trickle they call shower. Otherwise basic, could be made very nice with a little money spent

Hi Leanne Thanks very much for taking the time to write a review. We pride ourselves on being friendly and clean and know that the motel is in a great position. You brought up a couple of matters you weren't that comfortable with. Because we market ourselves as a quiet motel we like to be upfront with our guests that... More

Run by lovely people, the Motel is very close to town, nice and clean, comfortable, quiet, with everything you need. Also has a bbq which was handy for our group. Would and will recommend to others and we will stay again.

Great motel in a good location. The owners could not have been more helpful or pleasant. The motel is clean and the rooms are lovely. This is without doubt the best motel I have stayed in. Can't recommend this place highly enough.

The Roselands motel was the best value for money we had in New Zealand. It was spotlessly clean, the linen was new and good quality and we were conveniently located for a gentle stroll to the main restaurant and entertainment area of the city. We had such a comfortable stay that we wanted to delay our departure date. Thanks also... More

Travelling around the North Island for just a week, it was nice to find this motel tucked away in a quiet setting. Our room was plain but lovely and clean. The bed was comfy and we had a kitchenette and bathroom. There were picnic tables outside if you needed them and a laundry area if you are travellers too! A... More

Very friendly and helpful host. Excellent central location. Very clean and comfortable and interesting modern 70’s style with stainless steel shower base and painted block walls (reminded me of holidays in my childhood). Definitely good value for money and would stay again.
