    spotless unit
    exceptional service
    lovely pool
    cramped shower

    I loved my stay at the Colonial Motel in Blenheim. The unit was spotless and well equipped, perfect for our family. The kitchen made it easy to prepare meals. The complimentary laundry facilities with provided washing powder were a big plus. I took advantage of the lovely little pool nestled in the garden. Simon's exceptional service made us feel at home. The proximity to the best fish and chips shop was a delightful surprise. While everything else was fantastic, the shower stall felt a bit cramped. Despite that, the experience was overwhelmingly positive.

    small pool
    traffic noise
    small shower

    kitchenette with espresso machine, adequate sized rooms, small pool for cooling off

    The shower is ridiculously cramped!!! Given the traffic noise from the main road, soundproof windows would be a necessity!!! An additional toilet for three beds would enhance convenience!!!

    cute host

    Family with children great stay

    The hosts were so cute, Simon even helped us clean our gear after hiking! The room was spacious and had everything we needed.

    It wasn’t exactly a bargain, but the experience was worth it.

    decent internet speed

    It was just a commendable fit for a brief visit in Blenheim with definitely value for money. The internet speed was decent for just checking emails, and I appreciated the variety of Sky channels available. Consider asking for a room away from the street if noise bothers you.

    spacious suite
    well equipped kitchen
    additional toilet

    Welcoming environment with great host

    Our family had a fantastic stay with the spacious three-bedroom suite. The kitchen was extremely well equipped, making it easy to prepare meals, and Simon provided personal touches that made us feel at home. Cleanliness was top-notch, and we even got to enjoy the lovely pool area. I would have liked a second toilet for convenience, especially with kids around.

    comfortable stay
    cramped shower

    Had a fantastic time with friends! The hosts were super friendly and the place was clean and comfortable. We explored Molesworth Station and enjoyed the stunning landscapes. Make sure to check out nearby restaurants for good food. It’s a great base for exploring the area.

    The shower in our unit was a bit cramped, which was slightly inconvenient during our stay.

    kitchen essentials

    We enjoyed a lovely stay in a spacious two-bedroom suite with excellent facilities. The location was ideal for exploring the nearby town and we particularly appreciated the warmth of Simon and Nicola's hospitality. Made a trip to Molesworth Station, soaking in the stunning scenery!

    My wife says that adding more kitchen essentials would be great.
