We were disappointed with our stay here. We had 2 rooms and neither was very clean or comfortable. The single beds in 1 room were ok but in our room the double bed was very uncomfortable. Another problem was the lack of insect screens, so there was a choice of no air or being bitten during the night...unfortunately the can... More

We have stayed her 4 times and always book when we visit Matakana. Owners are friendly and accommodation is well equpped and clean. Bed very comfortable and so handy just a minute walk into town. We were in a two bedroom unit and I feel it was excellent value. More

we stayed at Matakana House Hotel 10/02/12 as we were up at matakana for a wedding. I read the reviews and thought oh no as some of the comments are very off putting. We were plesently surprised. We were in a 2 brm unit. they were clean and had a deck with chairs outside plus a front door so we... More

We were a group of friends, all with young families, away for a weekend together. The grounds are a little shabby, and the old spa pools made into fish ponds are probably better just filled in, but the rooms were tidy, comfortable and clean. the only available heating was one fan heater, but the rooms were surprsingly warm considering it...

If you can find somewhere else, go there. This place is expensive, dirty and full of mosquitoes. The grounds are filthy with rubbish and junk dotted everywhere. The bathroom smelled of urine. The towels smelled of body odour. I felt dirty after showering. Revolting place. More

Matakana is becoming an expensive place to stay however we found this motel reasonably priced. We were only in the area to attend a wedding and this place suited the purpose, it's located close to Matakana village and although basic has everything you need. Also very clean and spacious. Great if you just want somewhere clean and well located to... More

I too wish that I had read these reviews before I stayed there. Shocking - grounds were untidy, recycling rubbish was outside our unit. Bed was uncomfortable. The managers( ?) were as tired and unhelpful as the buildings. We didn't stay for the second night even though we had paid for it. $160.00 a night = what a ripoff! More

My family visiting form overseas stayed once and me and my partner stayed there together with them the second time. Good location, our unit was spacious and out the back there was sliding doors with a patio facing a wonderful field, adorable setting for relaxing! Very helpful manager who rang around the vineyards to find out which were still open... More
