My husband, grandchild and myself stayed after persuing the Jasons book. Very clean and everything you would want. Just two things. The cooked breakfast was very good value but the continental items were expensive for what we got. Also I do not like having my credit card used without my authority as the lady of the motel did in this... More

We booked this online a bit last minute for a quick trip to NZ from Brisbane. What a great find, its so clean, well appointed and just a pleasure to return back to, after a day out exploring. We stayed in a suite I believe, c/w spa, seperate lounge/dining & really well appointed kitchen. You could quite easily stay a... More

This is a great place to stop for a relaxing time with good sized rooms that are well maintained. The rooms are set back from the road, providing a peaceful sleep, with good sized beds that help you to loosen up and chill out. There is a mini bar in the room and air conditioning. Excellent service from the staff.

Stopped here overnight on a trip up north and found the hosts to be very welcoming and the room was to a high standard and very comfortable. Was a memorable place and had a great dinner at the Killer Prawn.

We booked in January 2011 for September. $195 per room (2). We found that all went very smoothly and the rooms were great. Our travelling companions also thought that Lodge Bordeaux was worth the money. The owners were welcoming and efficient.

This is by far the worst lodge I have ever dealt with, I have always been understanding and fair but this just shows how very poorly my booking was handled. I made a booking with this lodge 7 months ago in advance for Rugby World Cup for me my husband and 3 children travelling from Auckland. Paid by credit card,... More

When the guest made this booking in November, she was advised directly by email that the booking could not be accepted. In July, by chance, we found that the booking was still showing on the Book-It site as a confirmed booking. As we were, by then fully booked, we contacted Book-It and advised that the booking should have been cancelled... More

I stayed here for a night for business reason. The room was a standard shower studio. Price was $195 a night. The room was of a reasonable size and was clean. For some reason, I was placed in a room which is purposely fitted out for a disabled customer. However, that did not bother me much, but would have been... More

We are glad that Gary, overall, had a good experience when he stayed at Lodge Bordeaux recently. The room Gary booked online was indeed a Wheelchair Accessible room, and the description online states that it is a wheelchair accessible unit. The only difference to any of our other rooms is that the bathroom has been designed with a wet-floor shower,... More

Last minute booking online (night before) went smoothly, and our check in was fast. The room was outstanding, very spacious, very open, very clean and very modern. Very, very comfortable.
