Overall Ratings & Reviews Big Five Motel

Friendly and great location

Great pet friendly accomodation. Jenny was very hospitable checking if there was anything we needed daily. Definitely would stay there again

Advertised as luxury studio but fell far short of luxury.

Clean and tidy, plenty of room to park, quiet courtyard at back of room.

Will be nice once the renovations are finished. Staff was more the helpful and keen to lend a hand. Loverly stay. I felt my Ute and dogs were safe.

Nice and comfortable motel

Nice facilities but the tvs are not hd. Nice to have a tv in the room as well as the lounge

Property was clan and tidy unfortunately a lack of kitchen facilities

Very Pleasant stay, would stay again and recommend to others.

Handy location to restaurant, shops and park.. Clean room.

What a rarity to be welcomed with a smile, I got one here. I was asked if I had breakfast organised, I didnt have, so was given the option. I was asked how I would like the eggs and bacon cooked. The breakfast was great and exactly how we had discussed. I could not fault the place. I may have given it a more welcoming name, but that is just an opinion. One of the best moter experiences for years. Well done

The motel looks lovely on the outside, the inside not so much. It has old uncomfortable beds, very outdated televisions. Also our tv kept glitching it was very annoying to watch!. The room was tiny for the price I think it was defenitly one of the worst in the area. I have paid less at a motel and got a way better experience. Sorry to say I don't have anything positive to wright about this motel.

Lovely staff and very clean room. The room was perfect for staying in solo and felt safe. Good off street parking and easy to find. A minutes drive to the CBD. Good value for money and the complementary chocolates were a pleasant surprise after a long drive.

This is the 2nd time we've stayed and it's always very clean and comfy. Definitely come back again.

Great night and really appreciated being able to bring our (very) small dog with us to a lovely unit. We will be happily returning next time we are in town.

Everything was just right. Will stay again

a pleasant one night stay. Easy to find, located near main roads (but difficult to get out of in the morning traffic). Rooms feel a bit close and there's a bit of noise bleed when your neighbour goes to the toilet or plugs things into the wall. Breakfast is cheap and generous, water pressure good and electric blankets are great!

Was in palmerston North for one night with child entering the Wheetbix tri. Unfortunately other guests were very loud and we got very little sleep as a result. Rooms were nice but quite basic for the cost. service was great from motel owners who let me keep my car in the carpark till 2pm after check-out. Greatly appreciated.

Facilities: Modern; Service: Go the extra mile; Cleanliness: Immaculate; Was right next to my triathlon event and allowed me a late check out
