The New England Motor Lodge is the nicest motel in Glen Innes hands down. The restaurant meals we had were amazing. The bed in our room left a lot to be desired, it may be time to upgrade the beds. The pool was lovely for an afternoon swim and the rooms were clean and tidy with fresh towels for day 2.

Everything about this motel was extraordinary. The best motel we have ever stayed in. The staff offered exceptional customer service. From those on front reception to the staff in the restaurant they were amazing. The accomodation was warm, secure and well furnished in a French style. The king bed so comfortable and the bonus was that it had an electric blanket. The bathroom was very clean and modern. The water pressure was excellent providing wonderful hot showers. Car parking was conveniently located directly outside accomodation door. We have always said NEVER eat in a motel restaurant. We changed our minds last evening for the interior was stylish and the food as good as you would receive at a top quality restaurant. In all our stay at the New England Motor Lodge was fabulous. This motel IS NOT part of a chain. A credit to the family who own and run it. Highly recommend a stay there for anyone visiting Glen Innis

Second time we have stayed here, off the Main Road, nice King room and great ambience in the bar. It’s obviously hard to find good chefs in regional areas, so won’t be too harsh but our meal was drowned in sauces, not very nice. It’s convenient but I don’t think I’ll eat in the restaurant again.

The shower needs attention – the head sprays like a fire hose, and since the shower isn’t enclosed, water ends up all over the bathroom floor. To make matters worse, only a couple of towels were provided, which wasn’t nearly enough to dry the floor properly.

We stayed again last year and being very happy, decided to stay there again this year. Being 3 x couples, we booked what rooms were available with 2 x being the standard Everything met out needs including their beautiful restaurant -so elegant in its decoration and the food was lovely. Staff very helpful and polite My only comment would be the Queen rooms were compact compared to the twin room for the price and the blow dryer not powerful enough and cut out too quickly due to its wattage. Regardless we will stay there next time-maybe the things i pointed out might be considered esp for return patrons.
