Ashwood Manor Motor Lodge

Ashwood Manor Motor Lodge

10/10 Excellent
"My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The apartment was very clean and well laid out. Other than the occasional sound of road traffic the rooms are very quiet. The staff were so helpful and obliging that it felt like we had been there before. Nice sized spa bath that was comfortable and very relaxing. We highly recommend this establishment to anyone from holiday to business travelers. John and Delwyn Stevens Taranaki"

Kauri Lodge Karapiro

10/10 Excellent
"This property is on a real working farm in New Zealand, with happy contented cows watching you come and go. We were treated to in-house preserves of jam, and a lovely welcome. It was especially helpful that this accommodation was a short drive from the Hobbotin movie set, which we had visited earlier that day. So we reached our destination on the winding country road before it got dark; very convenient. We were 2 adults but would definitely recommend this spacious accommodation for families."

"This was the best hotel of the 5 I stayed at in Aotearoa. This was actually the best hotel I ever stayed at, bar none. Staff was great and happy, hotel and room was amazing. The most important thing was I felt relaxed and enjoyed my stay so much we extended it for one more day. I splurged for the Executive Suite and it was kind of awesome. Best hotel ever. Thank you for operating a really fine hotel."
