Daniel F Brennecke

Stayed in a room with a single queen sized bed. Extremely clean room. It was a little tight but you can make due with the microwave, toaster, and hot plate. At check in we got a small pitcher of fresh milk for tea and coffee that was a nice perk. Very quiet with a little rooster crow in the morning.

Great Motel in Murchison -- Just Renovated
Just renovated -- we might have been first guests -- and immaculate condition. Everything new from unscuffed paint to kitchenette to shower to bathroom tiles to bed to carpet. Small, cozy unit -- has everything we need. Friendly owner and good value too.

Ok for 1 night
The kitchen facilities are insufficient to cook a meal - only a microwave and toaster. Other places we’ve stayed in New Zealand had at least a portable hob

The pictures show several different units - all of them seemed to have a cooking stove. Our unit did not and the owner claimed he had no influence on the pictures because Xpedia would choose the pictures they put on display. Very misleading - if by intent or just tolerated does not matter. The unit was ok but quite basic. Worth mentioning is the service and cleaning staff which is remarkably considerate and friendly.

This was a quaint place to stay, room was a tad small but all good, minutes to drive to main shops and we loved feeding the eels and the lovely japanese garden type area, the owners should advertise these with photos would be a big pull for them, would recommend this motel

Loved the location. Wonderful views and lots of interesting places to look at in Murchison. There was a Hang Gliding Regatta going on there during our short stay and we met some neat people while staying at the Motel.

These quaint cabins are spectacularly clean with modern quality appliances. A perfect nights sleep in a secluded but convenient location. Try the The Cow Shed Restaurant! Never thought to find that good a dining experience in a little town like that.
