Great Location

4.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed Jan 7, 2022
We stayed two nights in unit 1.
This is an older, dated motel but clean and comfortable.
Some units may get traffic noise but we were away from the road.
Roomy units, comfortable bed, park at the door, wide screen tv, basic kitchen.
Very handy to the basin and the new Hunterwasser museum.
Also very convenient to Bank Street and its cafes and restaurants.
We would strongly recommend Essence cafe and Whang Thai in Bank Street.
Unlike many motels all units here HAVE air conditioning absolutely essential this time of year.
This motel is value for many but dont expect five stars.
Date of stay: January 2022

Spacious and not too far to walk to the quay. The included breakfast was a very good value for money. Plenty of choices and good size serving. While initially it felt like Faulty Towers, the staff warm up and were friendly. They helped us with planning our route for our holiday.
The bathroom and toilet could do with a little bit of upgrade. The place is looking a bit tired and could do with a little bit of touch up. Also, being in the main road, it's pretty noisy from the traffic. The weather was quite warm so we're unable to close the window which made sleeping difficult.

Unfortunately, we were overcharged close to $300 for one night, and we are having great difficulty getting our money back. The owner, when contacted, was quite rude, telling me he didn't want to know about the overcharge, to go through the booking agency for it, then telling me I was a 'good girl' (I'm 50!) when I said I would do that. Very condescending, sexist and unhelpful I felt. And over three weeks later - we're still waiting for our money!

Room tip: I wouldn't recommend staying here.

An excellent place to stay for a night. Spacious living and bathroom areas. Very well appointed with a large screen TV. Very friendly and helpful proprietors and a very good, generous continental breakfast available. Close to good restaurants and the main roads.

We stayed at the Pembrooke Motor Lodge in Whangarei with another couple. Bob and Carol, the kiwi owners, were both very friendly in the initial phone contacts we had with them. They very kindly allowed us to have use of a unit before check in time. The units were very clean and all the staff were friendly and obliging. The beds were very comfortable and warm, the hot water was hot and the shower was strong with an adjustable shower head. A very comfortable and pleasant stay. We'll be back next time we're in Whangarei.
