Lodging business in New Zealand

“January 2025 stayed 4 nights. Newly renovated and looks great. Comfy king bed, good sized bathroom and shower. Had everything we wanted plus great pool. Location good. Wouldn't hesitate to stay again.”

“Beautiful Sunny Spot to relax in & service with a smile.”

“Lovely chilled out place, friendly owners, horses in the back field, what more could one ask for?”

“Well furnished rooms with everything that we needed. Set up had 2 single beds at the top of a steep staircase but also had a fold out bed downstairs which was great for our younger children. Great stay, thank you!”

“Decent sized rooms with all the right amenities to ensure a comfortable stay. Bed and pillows give a good nights sleep...and a very rare spa bath in the bathroom. Located close to good food choices”

“Have stayed here at least 10 times. A great comfortable stay every time. Super great value with free parking for two weeks, and a shuttle to and from the airport. Parking is $25 per week after the free allotment which is really reasonable. The rooms are dated, but very clean, and i have always slept well here. Staff are friendly and welcoming. Will be back!”

“I stayed for a few days on holiday the owner hospitality was great she offered help to dry my clothes without any extra cost while my granddaughter and i could go to Christchurch for the day every thing in the unit immaculate and anything we wanted know they would be so helpful i recommend this lodge Motel to anyone or groups who want to stay in Rangiora also it's very close to the town and picture theatre 15min walk awesome.”

“I had read alot online before coming here and I must say they are very good hosts and although there could be a couple minor things worked on overall we've enjoyed a relaxing stay while we wait for our baby to arrive. The hotel offers accommodation for people who have family etc at the hospital and the free shuttle service to and from the hospital is great. Awesome staff very friendly and polite and not over bearing or intrusive at all. I recommend this motel/lodge to anyone looking for a relaxed no hassle stay.”

“Very clean and tidy room ,located next to supermarket and 5 minutes to beach, friendly owner , price is very affordable, large kitchen and comfy lounge, very recomended”

“Stayed here several times a few years ago and will be staying here again later this year. Most comfortable and relaxing place to stay with a wonderful breakfast and amazing hosts.”

“Best B&B me and my wife ever stayed. Host was amazing,and food was out of this world. Highly recomend Pokeko Lodge for an unforgettable experience. Thanks Michelle and Greg”

“Lovely Convenient Location, Lovely Service; Lovely Staff, Clean and Comfortable, Has it’s Own Fridge, Microwave, Dishes, Cutlery, Iron for the Clothes, Wifi and Tv, a Fan and Dehumidifier, a Lovely Pool, Towels and Other Condiments. Quiet, and kid friendly. Lovely for a Couple Retreat. Highly Recommend.”

“Great experience. Sam, the reception and housekeeping staff where all very friendly and professional. The rooms are comfortable and the shared kitchen is big and very well stocked.”

“The buildings are getting a bit tired however a major bonus was the natural springs private spa (not all rooms) It fills with very hot spring water and if you've got the time it's best to fill it 3 hours before you're going to use it so it can cool down without needing to dilute it with fresh cold water.”

“There’s a night shift manager who went above and beyond, he helped us out from Australia for a friend who was in DV situation. You saved a life…. Thank you sir! ❤️ You’ll never know how much you truly mean to us. Your company should be proud to have an amazing employee!!!”

“Good for students getting furniture for flats. Fiona”

“Absolutely welcoming host who made sure my dog could stay with me – really appreciated that! The kitchen was super functional and the space itself was a great size. I’ll definitely be coming back and would highly recommend!”

“We stayed overnight for a local event. It is in a good location for local eats, easy access to Hamilton city centre. While dated, everything was in order and clean. The couple who run it were friendly and helpful. Our son noted that it is in an excellent location to go to Waterworld, although we didn't go there on this trip.”

“Room was clean and good sized. They took a deposit but I had never stayed there before and given it's proximity to the stadium they probably have some rowdy guests so the policy is understandable. Nice bathroom. I wanted a budget room and got it. I would stay there again. Five stars because anything less is considered derogatory.”

“A great place to stay. Had 1 BDRM unit. Very tidy, clean and well presented. Slept the night away. Beds very comfortable and loved the pillows - best sleep ever. Pool was fab. Booked for one night 2 adults 1 child and was able to have extra child free of charge but did not take up offer. Owner very helpful and easy to talk to. My husband enjoyed onversing with him. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Will definitely return.”

“it was a massive suprise from previous acomadation. friendly. nice neighbours. quite at night much love you deserve five star”

“Great owners, and nice accommodation”

“Really enjoyed this place. Lovely staff, very clean. Felt like a hotel but with hostel amenities as well like laundry and a big shared kitchen. Surrounding neighborhood is a vibrant South Asian community of spice shops, dress shops, and jewelers. Countdown (large chain grocery store), and Kmart are one block away in an indoor mall with lots of shops and food. Good home base to explore Auckland from.”

“This is a unforgettable motel for me, and it is my first stop of my honeymoon at newzealand. Owner help us to solve the parking issue, he is busy but call his son to help me know how to parking at in downtown, also we have clean and Spacious room, it is a wonderful memory for me and my wife.”
