“Very Clean and Warm Motel Unit”

Reviewed 17 June 2013 NEW

My husband and I stayed at the Archway Motel last week (early June 2013) and we were very happy with the choice. The room, although somewhat dated and basic, was super clean and very warm and comfortable. The bathroom had a basic shower and a heated towel rail and again was super clean. The bed was very warm and comfortable... More

“So Warm, Welcoming and Comfortable !”

Reviewed 7 June 2013

We stumbled across this motel, and SO glad we did, one of the most pleasant stays in our road trip around the South Island, wished we could have stayed longer. Bridgit made us feel very welcome and went out of her way to recommend a good place to eat in town, my American friend was very impressed with the unit,... More

“A great place to relax”

Reviewed 12 May 2013

We stayed at Archway over the weekend of the 11/12 May 2013 our hosts Bridgit and Paul were very helpful with advice on visiting Wanaka. We found the room had everything you needed if you wanted to self cater, even BBQ's. The room was large and warm, the bed was very comfortable which made it difficult, having to get up... More

“Spacious and Lovely Location”

Reviewed 10 May 2013

Nice spacious unit in very pleasant grounds and with great facilities. Handy for either walk into town or out to Eely Point - a nice evening stroll. Really liked the relaxed atmosphere in Wanaka itself too - perhaps 'cause not really on the tourist map as such but found it so much nicer than Queenstown.

Thank you for your positive feedback..We especially were pleased to read your comments about how much you enjoyed Wanaka. It certainly is a special hidden place not just as a stop-over but as a base from which to do-day trips- the news is finally getting out there. We look forward to hosting you another time. Warm regards Bridgit & Paul More

“Old but very comfortable”

Reviewed 21 April 2013 via mobile

We had a 2 bedroom apartment and although old it was very warm and comfortable. A lovely short walk into town centre and very helpful service. Definitely recommend this place if you don't want super up market and modern accommodation.

Thank you as always for your time taken to provide valuable feedback. We are an older motel but as you commented on- we have attempted to upgrade the units and facilities to allow our guests to easily self-cater and provide necessary facilities & services. We also have the few little luxury extras as you suggest with the dishwasher & fridge-freezer... More

“Very good stay and helpful”

Reviewed 21 April 2013

We had an overnight here on the way through the South Island, arriving late and were made to feel very welcome. The accommodation was comfortable and well equipped and Brigitte arranged the next leg of our journey, a motel and cruise in Doubtful Sound which was very helpful.

Thank you Ruth for your lovely comments and we feel an important part of the hosting role that we find the most rewarding is the helping guests to enjoy not only the current property and place but to also forward book or advise to ensure you get to experience everything that best suits your needs and also potentially avoid disappointment...

“Quiet but quick walk to town”

Reviewed 4 April 2013

The motel was on the outskirts coming in to Wanaka, across the main road from the DoC Information Centre. In a tree-filled setting, it was quiet, spacious, and the owners attentive enough. Sufficient utensils to self-cater, and even though it was autumn we still needed the electric blanket provided. Good value and even relatively romantic.

“Quiet, clean and spacious”

Reviewed 2 April 2013

My husband and I stayed here two separate nights before and after a camping trip. The host and hostess were delightful, and the rooms spacious and modern. The motel is also well located for walking into town for dinner- I'd definitely stay here again on a future trip to Wanaka.

“Convenient self catering”

The Archway is not luxurious but the owners have done an excellent job of providing all that one might need for a self catering stay with them. The motel is also well back from the road and is quiet. There is a nice place out side the room to have a meal or just sit and relax. The motel is... More

Welcome & thank you for your positive comments. As a 3 star plus property luxury is not really our priority focus although we are adding little touches of luxury all the time. However based on your comments- we are pleased that the positive features of Archway were very much appreciated and we are always looking for ways to keep our... More

“Great service and very clean.”

Reviewed 1 April 2013

Stayed over Easter. Very peaceful location. The motel was very spacious and very clean. We had a handicapped person with us and she was not able to step into the shower. The owner constructed steps for us. As ex-motel owners we know what good service is and we certainly received it.

Thank you Alan, what a pleasure it was to host your party at Archway. We always believe that more guest satisfaction would occur every time if guests actually ask for what they actually need, including providing specific information or instruction especially when guests are struggling to work something out. We love helping make your stay the best it can be-... More
