Our room had a private bathroom, but there was a smell coming from the drains and the furnishings were quite dated. However, the price was reasonable at about $100 per night for two people.
The common areas were decent.
The restaurant food was good (around $40-$60 per person).
The staff were consistently very friendly.
You can start hikes directly from the accommodation. The scenery is beautiful.
Stayed 1 night with my wife, room was clean and comfortable, the view was beautiful, food and staff was perfect. Plenty of thing to do we did the walks next time mountain biking Would I go back and recommend to friends and family HELL yes I loved staying there and will be going back soon.
Room was clean and cosy, the only drawback was the bathroom and toilet area was too small. The staff were very friendly and the food in the hotel's restaurant was the best tastes with the best prices.
Highly recommend trying out the food there. We will return if we visit the nearby area again.
We travelled to Taihape for one of my sisters funerals and upon waking up in the morning we discovered that there was no hot water in our room, or for that matter in the whole block of rooms. Because of this we weren't able to shower before leaving the hotel.
The Owners/Managers were made aware of the situation and they discovered that the hot water cylinders for the block had ruptured.
No alternative or compensation was offered.
Very disappointing as we paid full price of $162 for our room for one night.
Will never stay there again and will not recommend it to anyone.
We had a great stay! Front desk was friendly and helpful. The rooms and the place was clean. We arrived at the start of winter season, not too many guests so we had the place almost to ourselves. The amenities was great, they had a lot of DVDs for entertainment, and the common kitchen was clean and well maintained. We also ate at the cafe which was delicious. The location was walking distance to the groceries, the tourist information center and other eateries. Overall a great stay!
Self-driving passing by very late bed. Very good location and scenery. Very suitable for backpackers, but there is a car to facilitate.
The public space is large and the kitchen is very good.
The foot smell of the bed bedroom is too big. It is estimated that they are all hiking and cycling. 🤣 But don't pick this price.
Suitable for those who look for serenity, strategic location with scenic view of Mount Ngaruhoe right at the entrance if the weather is good. Clean and tidy kitchen area with plenty of kitchen equipment and utensils for cooking. The only downside I would nitpick is that the hot tub is located by the roadside so there’s not much privacy around.
We really enjoyed our stay at this motel - it was basic but met all our needs. Very clean. Comfortable beds and walking distance to town. The hosts were so friendly and welcoming and there were lovely personal touches such as fudge on arrival - very thoughtful. Would definitely stay here again and recommend to others.
The location is excellent and it is very convenient from the city center. The owner and his wife are very patient and friendly Chinese, the stay experience is very good, the room is very large.
It's a really great place, comfy and cozy. The little veranda was cold in the morning but with the curtains, we didn't feel it at all in the room. As our room was more at the back and not so close to the road, we also didn't hear the traffic at all. Really nice accommodation.

GGuest UserIch war schon im letzten Jahr in dem Motel und es hat uns gut gefallen. Die Inhaber sind sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend. Deshalb bin ich in diesem Jahr wieder hin und ich kann nur sagen, freundlich ist noch nicht übertrieben. Dieses Jahr alleine und in der Hütte untergebracht mit gemeinsamen Wasch/ und Duschgelegenheit. Hat vollkommen ausgereicht.
Wurde vom Motel zum Startplatz des Tongariro gebracht und am Ende wieder abgeholt. Einfach nur super! Ich bin über 75 Jahre und ich spreche nur schlecht englisch. Aber die Inhaberin hat mir unter den Gästen einen Familie aus Deutschland vermittelt, die übersetzt hat. Super! Ein Einsatz der nur gelobt werden kann.

GGuest UserThe manager was incredibly kind and friendly. The room condition was excellent; upon our evening arrival, the manager had thoughtfully pre-heated the room for us. The spacious bathroom, with safety bars for seniors/mobility impaired, was impressive. Our children enjoyed Netflix. Breakfast, served personally by the manager from 7:30 AM, was delicious, and the warm hospitality in the quaint dining area created a memorable experience for our family. Special thanks to the adorable Lucky and to the manager for these precious memories. We will definitely visit again.
GGuest UserArrived into Whanganui and found the hotel easily. After checking in, very easily, we went to our room.
Not sure how old the hotel is, but the hall way & guest lounge very 1920’s with modern touches - comfortable & elegant.
Our room was another elegant room with lovely touches accenting the period of the property.
Though looking “old” the bed was extremely comfortable. The bathroom was huge with a corner whirlpool bath, as well as a shower too.
We ate in the restaurant that evening & both of us had a lovely meal. Great stay & definitely recommend it.
GGuest UserThe only problem we had was the room was double booked for what ever reason . We require a refund for the second room as it was cancelled by the Coachman.
디디지털노마드류It was spacious and comfortable enough for a family of 3-4 to stay together.
The cooking facilities are well equipped, so it is convenient.
Clean and comfortable bedding.
Good Wi-Fi as well.
If you ever need to stay in Palmerston North, Fitzroy Motel is a great choice.

RRobertI stopped here just because I was tired of driving. There are a bunch of restaurants around and a supermarket, so in that sense, the location is good, but I don't think there is much interesting in the proximity.
The room was great: very clean, spacious, the shower was clean and the towels smelled fresh. Even the shampoo, conditioner and bodywash were very nice, not like the regular cheap stuff you get. So all in all a great place to have a rest.
