We were at Mana Motel for three nights. The first two nights were uncomfortable due to what we thought was a very poor mattress. We found on the third night that there was a broken leg on the bed! We were able to prop it up temporarily, but the bed still wasn't that good, and the single in the second... More

Our top priority, as Owners, is always to provide our valued guests with a good night sleep, we want you to leave happy and continue to return. Guests unfortunately think Motel owners are mind readers, preferring to vent their problems through this medium....... Guests, can you please advise any staff member immediately if there is a problem of any kind,... More

I had a lovely stay at Mana Motel, it had everything you could need when away from home and in a great location out of the city but close to reality. The room was a good size and fully equipped with everything to truly relax in like your own home after a day working away from home. Good cafe and... More

After having a positive experience previously we decided to return and spend the weekend here. I chose this motel for the open grass area outside our patio which allowed my toddlers to play on the grass and head down to the childrens play area. On two occasions my children were rushed at by a dog in the childrens play area... More

Thank you for your kind review and high rating. It was a real pleasure hosting you and we would love to see you back sometime. Although we are a pet friendly motel we only accept 'friendly' pets under strict conditions and it was a pleasure to also host you friendly 'furry' friends. Thank you. Ross & Megan. More

My wife and my daughter and myself had the pleasure of staying here for three nights mid December 2011 Our first impressions were how clean and tidy the premises were and the two bedroom unit we shared was tastefully furnished and very comfortable.

Arrived from Australia late in the evening and were greated by Ross and Megan at the motel. We were shown our room where the lights and heater were on which made it rather cozy when arriving late.

We stayed here August 2011. We booked the downstairs access unit but were given an upstairs ordinary one bedroom unit which wasn't very suitable but since everything was booked out we had to take it. The units were clean with full cooking facilities. A bit cold, but we were given an extra heater and extra blankets when we asked. Unfortunately... More

With all the accommodation avaliabkle in Wellington we came back to the AAA Mana. Why? Because of the service we recieved on our last visit. When travelling with a swim team it was important to choose a place where teenagers are comfortable, the accommodation suits their needs and the owners/managers can accommodate the group.
