There was nothing wrong in this hotel. However, it is not very "fascinating". It is similar to a USA - Style Motel. A few services, position not very good; very quiet and clean. A good place where to stay no more than one night. The room was big and everything worked without any problems. The bathroom was ok. More

Known also as the Quality Inn Leisure Lodge (under Choice Hotels) we thought that we would get away from the normal chain brands. It was not a bargain by any means but as the saying goes 'you get what you pay for'. This hotel looks new, feels new and for the most part it is top-notch condition throughout. The only... More

I paid $129 for a one night stay here. My room was back from the road, quiet and well appointed. The front desk staff were very polite and helpful. The beds were comfortable, my only complaint about the room is that the shower head was a bit odd - the water ran very close to the wall. It was nice... More

I have used this motel many times for accommodation and also for training in their coomference rooms. The accommodation is brilliant, and now they even have a bar and restaurant at the front of this large complex. It is quiet and the beds are great. Today I had another training session but unfortunately for Leisure Lodge they have hired a... More

Stayed here for 3 weeks while I was working a temp job. Great location and easy to access with its U-shaped driveway. Plenty of space to park your car. Has coin-operated washing machine and dryer facilities as well as a swimming pool and BBQ area that is unfortunately closed over winter. Wifi available too at $5 for the first 20MB... More

This hotel has potential, with nicely appointed big rooms and grounds. This hotel even has an on-site restaurant. However, I had some trouble during the check in process where the front desk staff who was helping me didn't seem to know how the check in process works and caused quite a bit of confusion and frustration. Maybe that was just... More

On our arrival we were allocated an old, tired and depressing unit. There was minimal sunlight, dim lighting and it was clearly an inferior unit to the ones which our friends were allocated for the same price. We made a booking 6 months previously and were excited about visiting Nelson for the first time. Unfortunately, our trip was spoilt because... More

The rooms were tided daily, with the toiletries replaced daily too. When the manager found out i was there to rebuild my relationship with my daughter, she offered to drive... More
