With the help of the owner of the Albert Park Motel we arrived at the Rosetown. We received a lovely welcome from Cheryl and felt at home straight away. The unit was very comfortable with everything we needed.Cheryl was also kind enough to book our next Motel, which was a great help. I can not recommend The Rosetown Motel too... More

After a long day driving this was a welcome stop. Very welcoming, helpful and obliging hostess (we needed a freezer and she let us use hers). The unit was very clean and had all the items needed to be self sufficient. Would be a great spot from which to base oneself while seeing the region

It is easy to see why this motel is "#1 of 2 motels in Te Awamutu." Very comfortable beds and fully functional kitchen for those light meals self prepared. We were a party of 4 this time. Kids were in tow. Murphy's Law, we needed a room the same weekend as motels in the area were heavily booked due to... More

Thank you for your kind comments about our motel. It is always interesting to see what guests expect and appreciate when they are staying away from home. The quality of the linen, the home comforts like bedside lamps and extra pillows etc are high on your list and I am pleased that we met your expectations. I do look forward... More

This is a lovely little motel. An excellent welcome and very helpful owners. Little swimming pool was very welcome after a long day motorcycling !! The only downside s the noisy road. It s a dairy town and the milk tankers pass day and night .

Thank you for taking the time to comment on Trip Advisor. You looked to be having such fun on your biking tour and I hope the rest of your ride was fun filled and exciting. I can imagine that the swimming pool was very welcoming after a long day traveling, especially in the hot summer days that we have been... More

Thank you so much for your comments and the opportunity for us to improve our service. As part of their duties, our regular cleaning staff check that all utensils, dishes and appliances are clean and in the correct place. On this occasion a casual person was cleaning the units and overlooked the offending article. Of course she felt very embarrassed... More

What a great motel! We'd selected it based on excellent Trip Advisor reviews and we were not disappointed. We were traveling from Auckland overnight to take a Waitomo Adventures abseiling tour. The Roseway motel is about a 20-30 minute drive from Waitomo and a great base for visiting the area - especially since motels nearer Waitomo are not well reviewed.... More

Myself, husband and two girls stayed here for two nights to attend a family reunion in mid June. It has recently been redecorated and is clean and appealing (kitchenette still dated though). Staff were lovely and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend EXCEPT for the terrible shower. There is absolutely no water pressure at all. Was a challenge to get clean... More

Your comments are always appreciated. The unit redecoration was only just completed and I was unaware that the shower was a problem until Jill mentioned it to me. I was mortified to think that she did not have a decent shower and I am truly sorry that she had this experience while staying with us. A plumber has since adjusted... More
