The room and bathroom was nice and clean. I only wish their office was open during more of the day, rather than restricted to 2:00 to 7:00. It prevents you from dropping your bags and doing something in the afternoon.

What a wonderful surprise this motel was!! Twizel is a lovely town to stay in. Motel apartment room was HUGE with all the essentials for a comfortable, enjoyable stay. Great view of the Mountains over the golf course, walking distance to town. Friendly staff with great advice, and a simple check in process. Parking right out the front of the rooms. Very comfy bed, clean stay and highly recommend for those travelling the region in NZ. We’d love to return!
