Overall Ratings & Reviews Mount Eden Motel

Location is convinient to our needs (not tourist spots) but it's easy parking to go in and out. We don't mind that the place a bit run down as long as it's clean. This place is clean but using too much chemical and it smells too strong. Maybe air out the room before it's "ready" for guest

Although the tennis court is near & it’s not that quiet once they start their training, it’s great the Motel have blackout curtains because the flood lights from the tennis court are very bright, but they must have a certain time before they shut down, may not be the best place to stay if you are wanting to sleep in. But in saying that I loved it :) don’t be put off by what I have written.

The bed was good . Old part i was in was tidy but needs a spruce up .

Only complaint would be the shower, very difficult to regulate heat, water pressure not that great.Quiet location which is a bonus.

Good value for money - easy access to the tennis courts.

It’s very small and the space is small. Hard to use the toilet properly and just needs work to be done to the property. Bed was comfortable and clean.

Very cramp for this 2-bedroom unit for 7pax. Does not have enough chairs for 7pax dining. The kitchen is small, the fridge is not mean to store frozen food as it does have a freezer. There was no oven glove if you do grilling. No closet in one of the room. Mirror should be provided in both bedrooms. Hot water for shower need to wait for 15 mins after each person used it. However, the host was friendly and accommodative.

This was pretty good value. We found it to be quite comfortable and were impressed when young guests who became noisy were quickly straightened out. We initially found it hard to find, because we were looking low for the street number (which is not present) and didn't spot the sign up high.

Property was clean, nicely furnished and staff friendly on arrival. The smell of cleaning products was overwhelming though so we aired it out as much as we could. Had to make four calls over a two hour period on our first night to get a party at the next-door unit shut down so we could sleep. Hard to sleep downstairs due to bright light over the front door and lack of curtains above. Shower went cold within a few minutes, leaving me scrambling to get the conditioner out of my hair, despite it being the first shower of the day. Glad it wasn’t winter. Unfortunately, I can’t recommend.

Was spacious . Good value. Bed was comfy .

I stayed in a renovated room. Staffs very nice. The room was basic however good value for price. I liked the renovation efforts definately no frills but adds a freshness, simplicity and modern feel to the motel room. I noticed lots of noise from upstairs and tennis court across from garden however other guests were considerate and nil sport or noise late at night. The fridge was humming (there was a single bed in the lounge area) which was a bit annoying so i would not reccomend that area for sleeping. I would however reccomend the for couple or two people happy to share a bed as the bedroom was better. I was a bit worried about security as there is no chain lock and the window opens widely however there are cameras. Small shower and bathroom however remains excellent value. I really liked how they were not knocking on my door sharp on checkout time as I was travelling with small children. Thanks for great value and fresh living space.

It's an older property but very well maintained. Staff is excellent and very responsive (Janelle). It could improve the outside lighting. Our daughter walked back after dark and a few too many dark spots. Overall, a great place at a great price.

Another great stay thank you.

Staff were very helpful,very nice

The room was dated but spacious, clean and functional. The staff were pleasant and went out of their way to be helpful. The location is close to Mt Eden's walking/jogging routes and the views of Greater Auckland from the top are well worth the walk up from the motel. Boutique cafes and restaurants were only a short walk from the motel and a jaunt around the suburb's side streets revealed many gorgeous examples of lovingly maintained and restored colonial houses. We were originally going to stay in the Central Business District (~5 km from Mt Eden) but changed our plans and were so glad we instead stayed in this quaint neighbourhood.

First time visiting New Zealand, and this Mount Eden Motel was my first stop place for my week stay in NZ. Friendly folks at the front office and very nice place for the great price. Will book here at the Mount Eden Motel again, when my next visit !! Thank you, Mount Eden Motel staffs (mon and daughter) !!

Very good and clean motel.

The receptionist was freindly and hepfull. The double bedroom room only had one bedside table and lamp.

Was convenient for our needs

This property was exactly what we needed for an overnight stay. Although not the fanciest of places, staff were very friendly on arrival and the property was very clean and tidy. Overall a very pleasant stay and we all agreed we would hook here again. Great value for money.
