I recently stayed at 295 on Tay and was really pleased with the clean,new,modern facilities. I stayed in a one-bedroom upstairs unit(number 11) which was an en-suite king bedroom, with separate lounge/dining and kitchen. The bathroom had a huge spa-bath. I found the room to be well-layed out and was happy with the modern decor. I had done extensive interent... More

We recently stayed at a 3 bedroom house provided by the motel a couple of doors away which they own, it is fantastic, huge in size and for 7 of us was the most perfect location for hockey only about 200m down the road from the turf. We were also within easy walking distance to the rugby stadium The attention... More

This is a well-kept typical hotel. Very comfortable rooms, but nothing out of the ordinary. We enjoyed our stay here on our way through town.

Stayed here for one night as it was the best online deal at the time. Everything fine, without any wow factor. Some road noise as room faced main road.

Maybe not, but I have not seen one better. We stayed in a larger two bedroom unit across a small street from the main complex. Just amazing. Our trip was a stop over en-route to Stewart Island. To have so many comforts to just relax in the room at night made it perfect. The massive Tele to the spa bath... More

We found this motel on our previous trip to New Zealand. Our intial email enquiry was slow to be answered and we were becoming concerned. When the reply did come the reason for the delay was made clear. We happened to have chosen a particularly busy weekend in Invercargill, this motel was full and the owners had been ringing round...

We stayed just one night at this motel, and found it to be fine. Invercargill isn't quite on the top of the list of touristy places in NZ so I had mixed expectations, but was pleasantly surprised by the standard of the motel and the standard of the nearby shops and restaurants.

We arrived at this motel at about 8:30pm in the rain with no reservation, after a long days driving. Even though we only wanted to stay 1 night we received a warm welcome and the owner even moved bookings so we could get a room on the ground floor and would not have to carry all our luggage upstairs so...

We had a spacious 2 bedroom ground floor unit that was across a small side side street from the main motel property. I gather this must be the new extension as everything in our unit was modern & new! The bathroom had a whirlpool which was wonderful! Also had all the electronic gadgets in the kitchen that the previous reviewer... More
