We recently spent two nights at BK's Magnolia Lodge in Wanganui. This proved to be an excellent choice.The deluxe studio room was really spacious, spotlessly clean and very reasonably priced.The continental breakfast provisions delivered to the room on the evening prior were fresh, tasty and plentiful. The managers were friendly, welcoming and helpful in every way. The location of the... More

I would like to say that we stayed at BK Magnolia when there was a storm on. We had a lovely clean unit and the young lady who was looking after the place while the managers were away was superb. She was a lovely person and went out of her way. The breakfasst she made was awesome and we had... More

I picked this as a good motel at which to stay after reading previous reviews. We were thrilled with the choice. The lady at reception could not have been more welcoming and helpful. The motel unit was more spacious than most and had one bedroom with a queen bed and a single bed in the lounge. Both were very comfortable... More

Sue and I stayed here on our way to Taranaki for a business trip. We arrived later in the evening but this was no problem for the lovely lady at the front desk. The rate was excellent value and most of all the friendliness of the host matched the warmth of the room, nice and cosy! We were so impressed... More

Having previously stayed at 2 more expensive 'hotels' in Wanganui which were very average experiences I was not holding out much hope for another stay in the town. However this motel was fantastic. The welcome from the owner was fantastic and genuine. I was given a great studio room which exceed my expecations. It was a generous studio with good... More

Motor Lodge is stituated 1 block of main street,so very handy but it is surprisingly quiet. Only heard 1 police siren in the very early hours, but that can be heard in any main town. Supermarket, Petrol stations and fast food places are very close by. Plus the main downtown area. Room was clean, 2 recliner chairs,room is not large... More

My husband and I were visiting New Zealand, from Canada, on a three-week vacation in January 2011. We stayed at B-K's Magnolia Motor Lodge for one night and found it to be in a nice quiet area, and within walking distance to the restaurants. The room was clean and spacious. The owners, Brian and Kathy were very kind and helpful.... More

This motel was nicely appointed with a small kitchen area and spa bath in the room. The room itself was comfortable and quite clean. However, Wanganui isn't the best for nightlife. When places say "open until late" for dinner, we found at 7:30 p.m. we were struggling to find food. Sadly, McDonnalds was the only option for "late" dining. This... More
