Thanks to family, we found this great motel a while ago and when in the area, always go back there. The rooms are very comfortable, clean, warm and quiet. The owners and staff are very helpful and friendly, and great rates. Very happy to recommend this great motel.

Just stayed here and agree with previous reviews, good value, sign/ entrance appears old but interiors newly redone, neat, good bed, shower, and kitchen, friendly staff, even enjoyable pool. 5 min walk to square/ shopping or 5 minute drive to MU. Only other thoughts are to check wotif which was $20 less than website, ask for room without neighbours to... More

We stayed here one night after finding the motel on Wotif. It was a standard motel room but pleasant enough with a couple of extra touches, such as a jar of mints. The spa bath was excellent. The breakfast was very good and delivered right on time. The proximity to town and other restaurants was very good. If it hadn't... More

Nice, clean room with comfortable bed. Bathroom a little damp smelling and mouldy. Some hooks in the bathroom to hang clothes while bathing would be good as all around the bath gets very wet when taking a shower. Staff were not particularly friendly but maybe they were tired as it was a late in the week. The motel is in... More

I found this motel on Wotif and got a very good deal for one night on my way through to Wellington. I requested a room with a bath and apparently got an upgrade, though the ad for the room on Wotif suggested this was one of two alternatives anyway. Either way I was very happy with the room, the service... More

Not much to look at from the outside, but this motel is well run by people who know the meaning of customer service. Arrived late, with no booking. As I was travelling alone they took my safety into account, room clean and well presented, plenty of complimentaries. When I left they gave me a discount (un-asked) and ensured I had... More

I stayed here for a second time recently but unlike my previous stay, I was alone and stayed in a studio unit for a couple of nights. I was attending a course at Massey and found it really handy for getting to and fro. There are buses to the University which pass right by the motel and the drive only... More

I stayed at the A'La Vista for one night with my partner and parents in a one bedroom unit at the end of March. I must admit to being a little apprehensive about what would greet us in terms of the rooms due to the 70's style building at the front of the property which appears in all the promotional... More
