    We were pleasantly surprised by the cleanliness and spaciousness of the unit, perfect for our family. The motel's central location made it convenient for exploring the town and enjoying river walks. The friendly staff and simple cooking facilities were also a bonus.

    Felt very secure, no complaints at all.

    The shared balcony overlooking the Whanganui River offered breathtaking views that made me feel like I was in a postcard.

    Shower pressure and temperature control were problematic.

    This budget motel boasts of a prime location, being relatively close to key spots like the old bridge and the river, making it easy to explore the city. the rooms are comfortable with great shower facilities. the owners at reception, though not extremely pleasant, are polite and helpful.

    The motel seems to be lacking in other facilities like breakfast and milk in rooms.

    I had a great stay at a cozy accommodation on the outskirts of Wanganui. The heated mattress pad was a pleasant surprise that kept me comfortable throughout the night. Having a separate room for the kids made bedtime much easier. Despite a few minor issues, overall I highly recommend this place.

    Great value for money and perfect location for our New Year's celebrations. the staff were very friendly and accommodating. We were pleasantly surprised with two free complementary drinks upon check, in and a basket of fresh fruit in our room. the room was clean and spacious with all the amenities we needed.

    The bathroom door catch did not lock properly, which was a bit inconvenient. We also had some minor issues at check, in and check, out with the staff not being present at the office, causing a bit of confusion and delay.

    I chose Te Awa Motel because of its great location near the Sarjeant Gallery. The laundry facilities at the motel were a pleasant surprise, as well as the multilingual staff. I also enjoyed the barbecue and hot tub offered.

    Hard with toddlers, low sliding door handles.

    The bed was comfortable and the shower had good pressure. The bathroom was also clean which was a relief. The location was conveniently close to the central part of town and there was free Wi-Fi which was a bonus.

    Our Christmas stay wasn't great. There were no decorations or any sort of Christmas spirit in the room.

    We loved staying at this hotel! The location was perfect, just a short walk over the bridge to the city center and shops. The view from our room was amazing, with a lovely vista of the setting sun. The room itself was clean and tidy, and we appreciated the small kitchen with its microwave and double hotplate. The outdoor patio setting was a nice touch, and we enjoyed sitting out there and soaking up the sun after a long day of exploring. we were pleasantly surprised with this hotel and would definitely stay here again.

    We highly recommend this hotel to others. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and the staff were helpful and pleasant.

    We had a great one-night stay in this hotel. The spacious rooms were well-equipped, with a kitchen and a fan that provided extra comfort during hot weather. The hotel's location was perfect, as it was close to the city center, airport, and within walking distance to the river banks. The balcony was also a nice spot to enjoy breakfast with a scenic view. The staff was incredibly helpful and friendly throughout our stay.

    There was nothing we didn't like. This hotel provided excellent value for money and met all of our needs perfectly.

    I had a fantastic stay at this luxurious 4-star hotel. The location couldn't be more perfect, as it is right across the river from the town centre. This made it incredibly convenient to explore all the attractions and restaurants. The hotel staff were extremely friendly and provided excellent room service, ensuring that my towels and supplies were replaced daily. The room itself was spacious and well-equipped with amenities such as heating, a dining table, and even a patio with garden furniture. I also loved the free toiletries provided, as well as the fully stocked kitchen with cookware and utensils. I was impressed with the quality of service and the comfort provided at this venue.

    Families looking for a comfortable and convenient place to stay should definitely consider this hotel.
