Always love staying at Motor Lodge. I know the manager as we used to work together and he and his wife are absolutely lovely ❤️ Best place to stay in Whanganui!!!
We had a fantastic stay at the Hacienda motor lodge. The owners are just absolutely great people. They found out I was surprising my partner with a stay there and upgraded our room. The room was lovely, really good size and extremely clean with lots of great little touches like a coffee pod machine and milk frother, nice soaps and shampoo and a chocolate on the pillow. We'll definitely be staying here next time we're in the area.
Good location, i stayed in two different rooms. the one in the lodge was a bit old and run down, but the seperate cabin was very nice.
I liked the room - it was cosy and spacious. Lodge is nice and has this "mountain touch". The kitchen was great and perfectly equipped. The beds were super comfortable. Howard's Lodge is the best place when you plan to visit Tongariro. Communication with personnel was ok even though we haven't met anyone.l :D
BK's Magnolia Motor Lodge in Whanganui provides clean and tidy accommodations in a convenient location, meeting expectations for its price range. Overall, I was satisfied with my stay.
Close to Turoa ski field and ski hire shop. Loved the room - felt like a ski lodge. Enjoyed sitting on the balcony for a drink. Great to have a mini bar (paid). Bed super comfortable. Room was very warm and we didn’t need to put the heat pump on. Heating cupboard for wet clothes in the bathroom. Bathroom is a little dated but great shower and big bath. Shared Laundry on the floor. Enjoyed the breakfast, the lively atmosphere in the restaurant/pub and the friendly staff.
Friendly staff, homey ski lodge/cabin feel, hot tub was great after the alpine crossing.
Staff-Joy is such a happy person and goes above and beyond. She's always running around doing something. Facilities-You can really see that they are trying to spruce up the place and turn it into such a lovely place to stay. A lot of care and attention to detail is shown even as far as decorations to make it feel more homely compared to some lodges and backpackers I've stayed at. Kitchen-Kitchen is well stocked with items to use for cooking. Bed-It was comfy for me
love the old ski lodge vibe enjoyed the food at the restaurant very handy being able to stay and eat at the same place rooms had great bathrooms which had just been modernised and included a bath in our double room
Good location, nice lodges.
