10/10

Very good location for staying in wanaka, can walk to the beach and the motel is right next to the supermarket. The interior is a bit old but well maintained.
3-night trip

8/10

The location was amazing and compensated for any of the minor imperfections (dated and rather musty smelling toilet). Being so close to the lake and to all the shops and restaurants is simply amazing. For the price, it’s a great and affordable accommodation!

Very close to town center.

Accommodation was decent, however there were some squeaky noises every now and then and we had no idea where that came from, although this was a non-issue to me. It will also be great if a kettle had been provided. Location wise, this was in the centre of Wānaka and there is a New World supermarket behind. Parking spaces can be tight and limited.

The property is in a great location. Close to the water, shopping, dining, etc. However it is quite dated and could definitely use a spruce-up, and new pillows. It was clean so it was ok for 1 night.

Very close to main strip and the shops. Unfortunately, it is a bit dated and there is no air conditioning so beware if you are going during summer.

Fantastic location! Clean, comfortable, friendly staff. The all-wood building creaks a lot, so be prepared for a few bumps in the night!

Great location close to town and the lake. The rooms are a bit dated but well maintained.

Stayed here for 1 night in April 2025 with a friend. Room was clean. Staff at check in were friendly. Area is great - right by everything in town by very short walking distance. The famous tree was about 10 mins walking distance away. Shower was okay - water pressure was not great and did not drain well. The beds were alright in comfort level. Could very much hear people upstairs and around us - not very sound proof at all - not that the other guests were loud, just that I think this is an older hotel so heard floor creaks and voices outside.

Great location but very dated, especially the bathroom. It was relatively cheap so maybe cant expect too much

If the parking lot is full there are tons of spaces across the street after 7pm (it was packed before then though). There are limited hours at the reception but they were great about leaving instructions to check in and had the key drop off for early in the morning. It was a great area within walking distance of all the restaurants and the traffic calms down a lot in the evening!
