This place is good. Not über flash, but very comfy beds, really nice people, good brekkie (although this should be on your website!). My only criticism is teeny tiny, and is that the bathroom doesn't work that well... There is a shower door/toilet conflict that is a bit bizarre. But I would absolutely stay here again, for work or pleasure.

Right from the first contact by phone, the owners are bright and friendly. The units are beautifully decorated and in great condition. They are always on hand to chat and give advise when needed. I will continue to stay here and will recomend this motel to friends and business associates.

We stay at the Palms for business and just love it!! Lovely homely touches with cushions and throws and fabulous quality linen. Heather and Martin keep this motel in beautiful condition and are wonderful hosts. In the winter the heaters are put on just to warm the rooms before we get in and Heather has been known to knock on... More

Have now stayed at the Palms on three occasions and would recommend this hotel as one of the best. The owners are very friendly and more than willing to go out of their way to help you. The rooms are very clean with special little homely touches. Location is just a short walk to shops and restaurants.

We stayed one night in a lovely family unit which was very comfortable, clean, modern and tastefully decorated.We could see a lot of effort had gone into these units right down to the little pile of rocks on our window sill- a touch of feng shui perhaps? Our unit was downstairs on the side of the building so we got... More

This motel is well situated yet quiet as it isn't on a main street - a short walk takes you into town and a supermarket is right around the corner. The owners gave us some very helpful advice on what wineries to visit and where to eat. We had a studio room which was adequate for our needs with a... More

I really enjoyed my time staying at the Blenheims Palms. It's right in the city centre so easy to get to everything. Supermarket just around the corner. Room was mostly clean (basin was a bit dirty) and everything was good quality. Was glad to find real coffee and plunger!! Towel and pillows were a highlight, so luxurious. All in all,... More
