Pleasantly surprised
Clean, quiet, affordable accommodation. At first glance when you arrive the motel complex looks old/tired. But the units are clean and some upgrades (modern bathroom) have been done. Would definitely stay again.

Happy to stay again
Met with a lovely friendly welcome and was especially grateful as was for 2 nights over the Xmas period. Spacious room with lovely bathroom. Loved the patio which was frequented by blackbirds and sparrow and we also saw a Pukeko each day.

Good little motel if you need to stay in the area. Easy parking and relatively quiet. Ōtaki township is just down the road and a BP is very close by if you need supplies.

Drive onto the ferry is 55 mins from otaki
I drive onto the interislander ferry from otaki 45-55 minute drive. Leaving early avoids traffic into Wellington and staying out of Wellington avoids hotel rates and car park fees. The bathroom is newly renovated— great water pressure! Tiny motel, one level, parking at the door. Great hosts. Great rate. What more do you need?

I stay here often
The owners live on site. It’s little. It’s walk-in/park at door. It’s close to township. It’s walking to food— not hiking —walking!!!
It’s an hour from the ferry check-in.

Check in was quick and easy. The chap in reception was very knowledgeable about the local area and gave a good recommendation for dining.
They had turned the heating on so the room was lovely and toasty.
Room itself was old but clean and had all the necessities. A good powerful shower.

Lovely hosts
I’ve stayed six or seven times. Ōtaki breaks a long drive before driving onto the ferry. It’s spotlessly clean. The room rate is reasonable and this little motel has everything I could need. The patio opens onto a reserve.

I’ve stayed many times
I’ve stayed many times and this wee motel is a good price. just the right distance from Wellington to make it really to drive straight onto the ferry the following day. Spotlessly clean. with a family of pukeko waiting for food if you like birds.
