While the property was great, the same can't be said for Expedia. Expensive service; when a date change required further costs; overburdened with messages. BOOK directly with Newlands Court, not through Expedia!

Good location. Cleanliness and service could have been better for the price paid. In some me cases the room was only partially serviced. Bed not made. Towels left on the floor. The floor area was not once vacuumed. It is not what is expected for the room price.

My partner and I, as well as my little sister and her partner enjoyed our stay very much. We loved the space in the room, the space in the bathroom. The tidiness of the room and how amazing the shower was. The only thing that i was sad about, was expecting a spa in our room like the picture. I then realized that its in a differrent room which was not shown upon time of booking. Had to find out upon arrival that no spa was there. Also, hearing everything and anything happening from the room next door. Was absolutely disappointed but despite all that, the room was definitely amazing still 👌 & i would definitely stay there again.

Good location and good service from the staff showing us around and telling us about local places eat etc. The room was smaller than expected, but staff were accommodating. Some things were a bit dirty. Room service did make the bed and refresh the towels, but didn't restock the tea/coffee. Thin walls, could hear what the people next door were saying. Good parking.

The property is significantly overstated in it’s descriptions and the service needs to be better for the price. The kids playground is actually just a rusty slide and a broken swing. Don’t come with kids if you expect a playground. We were locked out of our room on day 2 at about 11am and had to find someone to reactivate our key card. When challenged on why, the host response was that cards expire after 24h for security reasons. I have never had an electronic key “expire” before the end of my stay before - and further to that it had not been 24h (20.5h), so this was a poor excuse. Room not “serviced” until about 4pm and it wasn’t serviced. We were given fresh towels and that’s it. Bins not emptied, dirty towels left on bathroom floor, and the microwave oven was a biohazard.

Overpriced

To say that this motel room was overpriced would be to understate the position. The room was barely big enough for the two single beds. This was made even worse by the huge black leather sofa beside one of the beds. I believe that there was a music festival on in Wellington the weekend we were there and the motelier had put the price up. Had we stayed there the next week, the room would have cost about a quarter less and even then would have been overpriced. The TV gave us 11 channels, three of which played the same infocommercials, two played cartoons, one played wrestling, one played Sky Sports and one did not work at all and one played a channel we could not identify. No Freeview. I would not stay here again.

Small and cosy

Disappointing was the fridge, the food we put in pretty much was frozen the next day and it wasn't even in the frozen area of the fridge, eg small milk - frozen solid,. Also there needs to be clear guidelines about the parking space because whatever room number you are allocated, that is your carpark space, um hello we arrived at night and there is ample car park space available and only get told to park in the correct space day 2 of our stay.

Less than a week in New Zealand

Let me begin with: This is my first experience traveling outside of the United States and am learning as I go and having fun doing so. I stayed in a ground floor suite and loved every minute of it. The bed was comfortable, there was a full couch, table with chairs, kitchenette (with cookware, dishes, utensils, and supplies to wash them), and walk-in shower with spa tub. Had I asked the gentleman at the desk, I would have discovered how to work the oven. Let me make this clear...if you are having any issues with your room, or something is not working...CALL THE FRONT DESK. The staff are more than happy to help. For people not accustomed to energy saving methods of other countries, New Zealand has toggle switches for every power outlet I have seen, and for large draw appliances. Once you get used to it, the feature can become quite appreciated. The air conditioner was incredibly silent and came with a remote control. The T.V. was of appropriate room size and came with 10 local channels; perfect for getting the lay of the land, although I watched the sports channel most of the time. Not only am I recommending this site to my friends and family, I am planning on returning to Newlands Court Motel for any breaks from University I may need.
