We stopped at Masterton on our way north from Wellington. The motel is well situated at the start of Masterton and not far from the supermarket. Restaurants are a drive away down to the main street unless you want KFC. The rooms were a good size and the kitchenette quite adequate. The owners were very helpful as to restaurants and... More

Lovely quiet Motel close to everything. Manager even put our bed on for us so was warm when we got back late. Nice to stay at a motel that still uses electric blankets. Clean tidy room with lovely windows that open right up. Nice grounds to sit and relax in. Would recommend to others. A+++

Stayed here while visiting family. Rooms are all clean, warm & equipped with everything you need for a comfortable stay. Heat pump, spa bath, electric blanket big tv, plunger coffee and nice wine glasses! Across road from supermarket, liquor store, KFC, and a handful of food places. I booked the wrong dates and they were ever so nice about it.... More

The Staff were amazing, the owner even lent us their own personal electric fry pan and slow cooker to cook with and even gave us a great receipe (where in the world would you get that service??). My son was... More

We were disappointed after reading the advertisement to find that our unit had a queen bed rather than a king. Given that you pay extra for the spa unit you might expect a king size bed. It was a basic bed and you could feel the electric blanket wires through the sheets. The spa bath was small. We asked for... More

Thank you Jo for your wonderful hospitality. We always stay here when we travel to Masterton. You can always count on it being very clean, great beds, & very helpful staff. It is great to be able to use the laundry. The swimming pool is great after a very hot day in the summer. We just recently had a rush... More
