Pet friendly hotel in Hamilton

“The hosts were lovely. The room was huge with all amenities, including microwave, tea and coffee (with French press!) Massive TV, Free wifi, Parking, delicious breakfast. Thank you for a lovely stay.”

“We arrived very late at night and still it was no problem to our wonderful hosts who waited up for us. It was a rainy and cold night and it was wonderful to arrive to our preheated quarters. The place was very clean and modern, great decor and art throughout. It was my first stay at a BnB but I would have to say this place would have to be considered at the top end of BnBs. We enjoyed our peaceful and uninterrupted stay. We are already planning our next stay. Thank you Brett and Sally for making your home ours as well. AAA+++”

“Great place to stay while visiting Hobbiton. The room we had was very nice and comfortable. The breakfast provided in the morning was filling and delicious, and the hosts were great! I managed to leave behind my Airpods and they were kept safe for me in a baggie with my name on it and the date of my stay.”

“The apartment was an unexpected pleasure to stay in. I thoroughly enjoyed everything and the service was an A+. I enjoyed eating over the road and could not resist trying the highly recommended fish from the nearby wharf. To our surprise, as we did not realize the sea in front of the Silos was so tidal, when we turned the lights out we could people spearfishing under headlamps just in front. Amazing.”

“Lovely, clean room with everything you need for a night away from home”

“Robin was a very warm and welcoming host. The place was clean and cozy and all the essentials and some more. The breakfast yogurt was fresh and delicious. The muffins were warm! There is a lovely trail at the end of the road”

“Absolute pleasure to stay here, clise enough to Thames but far enough to be away in the country. Would definitely stay here again.”

“It’s not often that a place you stay at ticks all the boxes, theres always something wrong or a bit weird, but not here. The Breakfast provided (with home made elements and local produce from growers markets) was excellent, the beds and pillows were great and super comfy (this is something I often find disappointing at hotels) , and the bathrooms were just like a 5 star luxury hotel. John and Kay + their friendly dogs were the perfect hosts, and in a way it was like staying with friends. They provided a cot and high chair for our 9 month old baby, plus made the main area safe for him to roam around in (and tolerated his yelling throughout the night) The surrounding bushland and the serenity emanating from it cannot be accurately described, just book a few nights here and experience it for yourself!”

“We stayed in the stall excellent place to stay, very welcoming helpful owners. The room was beautiful, comfortable and private. They have a spa pool and Sauna but didn't have time to use. Will definitely be returning thanks so much . Some views from property early this morning”

“We chose this place due to its proximity to Hobbiton and the pictures of its gorgeous views. And after arriving, we were blown away with just how beautiful the property was. We appreciated how quiet and relaxing our stay was. Shona and Dave (the owners) were lovely to chat with during our check in. If you need a quiet and serene get away, this is the place.”

“Lovely stay! Classy accommodation! Amazing hosts! And the best part is the horse rides. Overall a beautiful property and will definitely revisit someday.”

“We stayed for two nights at the beautiful Awa Retreat, what a lovely place to stay, the hosts Cathy and Murray are so friendly it is like meeting old friends, the apartment is clean and tidy and has all the comforts of home, the breakfasts are beautiful and the wild bird life just outside the property is just delightful. The location right beside the Mighty Waikato River is perfect, a stroll along the walkway was very relaxing and we enjoyed seeing the native trees flourishing in this pretty spot. We are happy to recommend Awa Retreat and will stay again next time we come to Hamilton. Thank you Cathy and Murray for opening your lovely home to us. Cheers Joanne and Peter”

“Loved it. The owners were amazing, the place is just lovely and so relaxing. We stayed as a sports team and we seamlessly fitted onto the rooms, the kitchen, the lounge and the dining area. Other than the parking being a smidgeon tight, you can't fault the place.”

“Great accommodation and the bed was very comfortable. What was exceptional was, everything was set out to give the best customer experience. This will be our choice to stay on long trips. Thank you.”

“Fits 8 people comfortably. The host and hostess are very nice and friendly . Beds are very comfortable, clean, and warm”

“Fantastic lodge looking right over Lake Karapiro, perfect for family getaways, wedding parties, sporting groups and small corporate groups. The service was outstanding, Jo and Jon are fabulous hosts and the decor within the lodge itself was superb. We had a wonderful time and can't wait to come back!”

“Such a lovely home!!! Built just outside Cambridge with a world class koi pond and hot tub, this B&B was the touch of luxury we were looking for at the end of our holiday vacation.”

“Small town quiet escape off the beaten catch. The rooms were very nice, especially the master bedroom which offered great space and sitting area. John and Jenny were Accomdating and cooked a great breakfast. The immaculate garden, sheep in the backyard, and mountain in the distance made the stay memorable. No credit card payment.”

“Didn't stay, just visited. Lovely people, welcoming, will go the extra mile. Rooms are what you'd imagine in a fairy tale! Pretty, luxurious, lovely colours, sumptuous looking beds, bathrooms amazing. Rex is a fantastic cook, dinning room looks out to front, main road, lounge with comfortable sofa & chairs, fire place, decor rich & colorful, situated in middle of house with doors to a veranda for outside relaxing. This is a lovely old Villa, high ceilings, long entrance hallway with decor to match & Linda's art work gracing the upper walls. If you want something different than modern, this is it! They have regulars visiting, & even folk who work for a while in the area will live there. Enjoy.”

“Great host with really good communication for easy check in and he also let me check in earlier. Great place, it's a lovely old character place that has been done up with new bathrooms, kitchen etc. Clean, good facilities/furnishings and warm (heating throughout). Fairly priced too unlike some places that charge more and aren't as nice. Would stay again when travelling through and recommend to others.”

“My Wife and I stayed at the Cobb Cottage on our wedding night and were blown away by the beautiful place and friendly service. We were greeted with a candle-lit atmosphere, (good) bottle of bubbles, good sized chocolate desserts and fresh baked bread. The Cottage was very clean and tidy and fitted out in a beautiful way that makes the entire place a piece of artwork. In the morning a fresh loaf of bread and hot tea were left for us on the outside table. Found in the fridge were a variety of drinks and the ingredients (and recipe) for a fantastic smoothee. We enjoyed this out of the sunny deck where it is easy to relax for the whole day. The way the place is arranged, the house and grounds are nicely private. We really would recommend this to anyone and wish we had booked in for longer. Looking forward to heading back one day!”

“We called in on our way home from Kawhia to Rotorua. What a treasure to their community. So many handy services. We had icecreams and chicken & chips. Delicious kai, excellent friendly service and a nice bench seat to eat at out front. We theorised on how the bikes came to be there.”

“Very clean (spotless!), new and well appointed rooms in a quiet location. Friendly service. Bed is comfortable, nice large TV with full Sky. All at a great price. Highly recommended.”

“Within 700 m walk of many restaurants and cafes. Rooms were large well appointed and beds were comfortable and appliances new . Cleanliness exceptional. Would recommend and stay again ourselves if visiting. Lovely country town and people.”

“Awesome karaoke with Jem Staria - for a Rockin' Good Night for the locals, people passing through, and karaoke family from Hamilton...come on down to check it out 7-11pm every Friday!”

“The gentleman who owns it was friendly and accommodating to my tardiness. A lovely old building that seemed to have a character of its own. The room a pleasant mixture of vintage and modern. For me, personally, a charming accommodation. A suggestion: perhaps move the history of the building to its own two pages, nearer the front? If possible, some photos and a map of the building. Lean hard into the near 100 years, as that's part of what drew me to stay here.”

“Very clean and modern. Lots of parking. Rooms were immaculate and well appointed. Lovely staff. Decided to stay another night as it was quiet and comfortable. Well equipped kitchen with hot plate and microwave. Impressive motel. Would stay again if I came back to Hamilton.”

“The unit is better than expected. This is like home away from home, it is so well equipped. The unit has obviously been refurbished. Very clean, tidy, and so handy to the hospital. Just bring earplugs if you're not used to traffic noise.”

“What a beautiful place. Went there for a wedding In the garden, with a reception to follow. The food was great and the staff were very friendly and helpful.”

“We occupied unit 2. It appeared to have been recently refurbished and was spotless. Spacious unit. Hot water pressure and temperature very good. Good bed. Friendly check in. Good value.”
