We stayed here for 1 night over Easter weekend whilst travelling North to Hamilton. This Motel is located at the end of the main street in Wanganui & opposite a large supermarket. Subway is next door & McDonalds 5 mins away. It's a bright & modern place, much nicer than other dreary time warped Motels we stayed in. Our room... More

This motel was very modern and situated at the far end of the main street, close to two supermarkets so we were able to walk there and buy some cold meats and salads instead of eating out at a restaurant which made a change. Very clean, and nicely furnished. However I found the shower recess was far too small for... More

Loved the huge spa bath in the room. Next time I'm going to take a big book and enjoy that space for hours. Lovely bed to sleep in and one of the best nights sleep I have had in a hotel bed. More

We were in Wanganui for the night and stumbled upon this fantastic accomodation. We needed a 2 bedroom apartment and this place was perfect and very reasonably priced. Two king singles in the main room, huge bathroom with spa plus a separate room with a queen bed. The staff were so nice and actually took us to show the room... More

.. from the usual drab, soulless motels we had encountered on the rest of our visit to New Zealand. The room was huge, clean, and beautifully appointed, and most of all the beds were fantastically comfortable - our best night's sleep for ages. We had one of the rooms with a double spa bath in the lounge - not a... More

A rather modern and new build motor lodge. Great comfort and huge room. A jacuzzi next to your bed. Located within a 10 minutes walk to the city center for shopping, restaurants and bars on a rather busy road. Breakfast just across the street. A good location for 1 or 2 nights. More

If you like dark hardwood furniture and a spa bath in one corner of your room then the Aotea Motor Lodge certainly is the right choice for you. Just make sure to request a room that is not on the roadside because it can get quite noisy. We did'nt like the huge bath tub in the room and we found... More

Double Spa bath, free wifi, comfortable beds - my favorite feature. There's a lot going for this hotel. The central location is perfect for business. Everything is a convenient walk away. Would definitely recommend this place. More
