Manager did not like that I’d booked via an online booking site. This motel is very rule orientated. The unit was not serviced other than removing rubbish. Unit appeared initially to be clean though with a heavy smell of air freshener. Mould in shower. Cooking facilities were an air fryer and an electric frypan which was badly in need of a clean. However the bed linen was fresh and clean.
No individual toiletries or face cloths provided.

Even though it states sound proof rooms - they are certainly not. Can hear everything from people in room next to you showering or running a tap, people outside walking, and a dog next door barking. Also penalties apply for travelling for business, which is fine however there is no mention of this until after you have booked your non refundable booking

Nice stay at this motel in Wanaka. We stayed in the two bedroom - the beds were comfortable, the kitchen had basic utensils (as well as Teas and Coffee), but no cooking oil. The laundry was really convenient and nice - cost $5 for one load (both wash and dry). Staff were really friendly and helpful! I would stay here again and would recommend it!

This reservation was cancelled on 13/02/24, which is when we requested a booking. Manuka said they had cancelled this. I see a charge has been raised and demand it be reversed.

The hotelier lectured my wife twice over the phone on using Expedia to book, stating we should be supporting NZ businesses by booking direct, and not sending money offshore to the US.
On arrival, I had to listen to the same spiel, and also that he had cancelled our Expedia booking, as discussed with my wife, which was an outright lie!! She did not authorise him to do so.
He also rebooked our room direct so he didn’t have to pay fee’s to Expedia (hoteliers words).
He discounted us a few dollars less than our Expedia cost…wow!! Because of this we have now lost loyalty rewards of around 4-5 times the value.
We travel a lot, and always book through the app, but we shouldn’t have be confronted over how we book. We don’t have time to ring around trying to find available rooms; and we shouldn’t have to justify why we book the way we do either.
We will not stay here again, nor will we recommend.
If planning on booking through the app to get rewards, I wouldn’t bother as you probably won’t get them!
Other than that, the room was fine.

Room and furniture smelt like cigarettes and ash tray outside was full, curtains were torn.

No one at reception when we arrived, notice on door “ be back shortly”. Rang phone number on the notice, no response for 30 minutes, staff member was inside but forgot to take notice of the door. Unit was small, bed not made up properly chairs uncomfortable. Bed very hard, club chairs. Room looked tired and needs an update, not value for what we payed. We do not recommend this stay.

This fit our needs just fine. Kitchen was adequately supplied. Beds were comfortable. Not fancy and maybe a little higher than our other south island hotels but a good place

The room was a cabin, lean too. Not what I would expect from a motel in Wanaka. When the owner saw I had booked through Expedia, he said ‘Nasty’ which I thought was a bit unprofessional.

I think this is possibly the worst motel I have ever stayed at! The young woman who greeted us on reception was friendly and that was about the best thing about this place. She asked us if we wanted to swap our room as it had a sloping ceiling so we 'upgraded' to a double room. However as it was a very cold and overcast day, the room was freezing cold, very dark and inadequate heating. The rooms are very tired and old fashioned with no redeeming features. The kitchen was very basic, and not that clean. The bathroom was an icebox and the shower a real danger as it is raised and has a raised lip on the shower tray which I grazed my toe on. The whole place was very dingy and dirty and we couldn't wait to leave the next morning. We left as soon as we woke up, it was too cold to have a shower and so we just got up and left. It doesn't even have a great location so there are no redeeming features and so many other better places to stay in Wanaka.

Great off road parking, only a few minutes to drive into the centre of Wanaka. Comfortable beds, very clean, very quiet

It was a spacious room and the kitchenette was well equipped with basic stuff we needed. The bathroom needs a holder where one can place his/her toiletries. We ended placing our shampoo and other stuff on the shower floor. Nice and warm cozy room. All in all, it was awesome stay.

Comfortable beds and good shower (if a little touchy as tiny adjustments made a big difference). We were there on a very cold weekend and the built in heaters were not sufficient. However, the small radiator in the cupboard made the place just warm enough. The TV remote didn't work well and only one of our phones could connect to the internet - suspect the unit we were in (2) was a bit far from the router. It's up the hill a wee way from town and given the weather we always drove. An ok stay, but not really good value for money.

Enjoyed our one night stay. A short drive into town. Comfortable room. It got a bit cold but there were plenty of heaters and electric blankets.

Tidy, pleasant host. Water main in unit broke and host were very fast to provide us an alternative unit.

We left early as we had to get back home to our country before the borders were closed. We could not get a refund for the time we did not stay. It's an older style motel, shower pressure not very good, it's a bit out of the way, but the price charged reflects that.

We got what we paid for , clean and everything we needed. Is exactly as it advertised our room.

Fantastic place, wished we could have stayed longer....we definitely will encourage others to visit! Cheers! FYI; Hello, My husband and I recently stayed at your hotel/motel during our visit to New Zealand. I have miss placed a pair of silver framed dark lens sunglasses made by Maui Jim and I also have left a Apple computer USB ADAPTER plugged in one of the hotel rooms. I’m hoping house keeping turned these in to your lost and found. If you could ask your staff and let me know I would like to provide my address and the cost of post to have them returned. I’m super bummed ☹️ Darla Laurent
