Our stay at the Caves Motor Inn was really comfortable and our room was spotlessly clean. We had everything we needed to be able to cook for ourselves, which is what we needed. It was well located for getting to the Waitimo Caves. Yes, the motor inn is a little dated but we knew that when we booked and I think it was real value for money considering it was peak season. A nice little touch were the ear plugs in the room as the motel is next to the highway but we didn’t find the noise a problem at all as the highway isn’t very busy and the windows were triple glazed which I’m sure must have blocked out a decent bit of the noise. So I certainly wouldn’t add a negative comment about the noise and I feel it’s a bit unfair for others to do so when they know what they are getting when they book. Overall, a great stay and thanks to Ivan and the rest of the staff.

We got in very late and Annie had made contact with us at 8pm to advise us how to access the room when we got there. So appreciated that as it took the pressure off us to rush (speed) to get there by a certain time. And we got there the light was on and the room was lovely and warm from the heater being on low as well as our electric blanket. Just so considerate. Thank you. Loved the littke kitchenette area that had a microwave.. Kettle.. Toaster and fridge.

Friendliness of the staff on arrival. The room was spacious, well-appointed, and very clean! We were provided earplugs in the room, but it was very quiet, and we did not need them. The room also had a nice balcony with several chairs and a table. The outlook was nice. We dined at the restaurant, and the food was reasonably priced and of good quality - everyone enjoyed their meals.

Rochelle

The room was big, very spacious and comfortable for three people - had shampoo and body wash. There were a few spiders but the room itself very clean. Lots of parking space, but you do need a car to get there. Restaurant is closed on weekends. Also enough chairs for everyone and a well equipped small kitchen. It's next to the main road but it's still quiet.

Luna

The staff were amazing, especially Destiny. she went above and beyond to make sure we had a great stay! the food at the restaurant was amazing, the lamb shanks, delicious! the room was exceptionally clean, more than some high end hotels we've stayed at. we had a fantastic stay, thanks!
