Kerikeri Court Motel

What guests think

Kerikeri Court Motel earns praise for its central, walkable location, many clean and comfortable stays, and easy parking, while several comments note the property feels older and overall facilities and rooms are fairly basic.

Rooms are generally comfortable but dated, and several reviews mention limited heating or air conditioning plus noise for units beside the McDonald’s drive-through. Service is commonly friendly and accommodating, though a few guests encountered minimal or impersonal check-in and one reported poor follow-up. Expect a straightforward stay with basic comforts.

Lack of air-conditioning. Property was looking tired but was ideal for us as a family group. Very handy to Keri Keri centre - shopping, restaurants, etc. Good value for money. Swimming Pool great and always clean.

This was a very quaint and welcoming property. The location was great, with easy walkable distance to shopping and grocery stores. The shower was a bit small and on the short side. The staff was friendly and helpful. All the appliances worked and there was parking for our car right infront of our room. We would definitely return if we come back to this area of NZ.

This motel should not be listed with Hotels.com. Upon check in we were told no room clean without extra charge. The climb up the exterior concrete stairs is too steep and probably not legal. Upon opening the door I noted the carpet is lumpy and uneven so could be a trip hazard. When I turned the bed down in the evening, my wife screamed because there was a bug in the sheets. I approached the manager and told her we wanted a refund as we would not stay, she said too late we already paid no refund or partial was offered. As it was late evening we elected to try rest in the room till morning. This was difficult as the term backed on to McDonalds all night drive through so we listened to cars and parking lot parties all night. Went to the manager’s office in the morning to plead for some relief sign on the door says do not disturb as manager is not a morning person. Worst place and service I have seen in my 74 years, with hundreds of hotel stays. (Commercial Traveller)
