A very good riverside hotel with beautiful scenery and friendly owner. It is recommended to install a retractable shower head in the bathroom.

A clean & comfortable room. The kitchenette was fully equipped with cookware, a full oven & stove top as well as a microwave. The bed was a bit soft for our liking. We think the weather may have been hotter than the locals may be used to - there wasn’t an air conditioner or fan to relieve the evening heat buildup. The manager was very helpful & friendly.

This place is directly on the river but has no problem with insects. It has no Air Conditioner, but it is cool, with a really good passive design. It is easy to reach most features in Whanganui. The cats that own the place are relatively aloof, but the owner is friendly. If you are sensitive to traffic going by, you might be affected by that, but I found it comfortable and quiet. Overall, an excellent base from which to explore Whanganui. Highly recommended.

Beautiful! Just how a motel should be! We had an excellent stay, thanks! I liked the way the information book was written by the owners. Serious with a twist of fun!

So handy to town. As the name implies, the river track is across the road. Staff were super friendly. I will be back with the entire family. Thanks for a great stay

Very comfortable and spotlessly clean motel. Rooms a good size and high celings add to the airy feeling. Lovely gardens and quiet area, hosts very helpful and friendly. Close to CBD in a pleasant suburb, with easy riverside walk just axcross the road, and great views were a bonus. Definitely recommend and we will stay here again.

Reception was lovely and welcoming and even upgraded my room after confusion with my booking in the system. The room itself was great and had everything I needed! Perfect for a couple nights stay 🌸

Older motel, but very nice. Had an electric heater rather than the usual heat pump, but no worries there. Shower had trouble getting warm one morning, but the owners are notified and will look into it.

The room was clean and the beds comfortable but the rooms need the decor updating.
