Our stay at BK's Premier Motel in Palmerston North was pleasant. The room and dining area were nicely set up, though we expected it to be slightly nicer. The bathroom was the highlight of our stay. We only stayed for one night, but it was clean, efficient, and spacious enough for our group. We appreciated the utensils in the kitchen. Although there were no elevators, and we had to haul our heavy luggage up and down the stairs to our second-floor room, it was manageable. The motel was very accommodating with a smooth late check-in, and overall, it was a good experience.

Cleanliness

Cleanliness is often praised, but multiple reviews report lapses such as hair in bathrooms, stained or gray linens, odors, and missed spots on appliances or spa fittings, so standards feel inconsistent.

Staff very helpful. Bathroom spacious. Coffee machine nice, but, cleaners need to do better. Coffee machine had an old stuck pod in it, the window behind the bed was pretty disgusting/ mouldy and the beds are horrible. Gratefully only had one night. Quiet which was nice, had issue trying to get on after hours, lucky someone was coming out. Not expensive but wouldn’t return.

Stayed here before on the second floor, rooms seemed newer and cleaner. This time we are a party of 4, they allocated us a room on the ground floor, while hallway had a musty smell, room is dated and not as clean. The coffee machine had stains at the spout, would be great if they could give it a wipe.

The facilities were ok generally. The single bed had a terrible mattress. The spring was loose and affected sleep. The noise was not directly due to the hotel but due to the some sort of racing happening beside the hotel. A heads up from the staff would have been good. Had booked for 2 nights but needed to leave on the 2nd day due to family emergency. Did give 24 hrs notice and was assured of a refund by staff which i understand would be based on goodwill. Message to the manager for a request was not even acknowledged or replied to. Disappointing experience overall.

Lots of parking and were allowed to park longer after we had checked out. receptionist was really nice and accommodating. Rooms were spacious and clean and had everything we needed. Beds were comfy and we had plenty of room for luggage. The only fault was housekeeping coming in around 9am while we were in our PJs having breakfast and started cleaning the kitchenette and bathroom. Apart from that we were really happy with our stay. Would definitely stay again.

Room was clean and great towels. Low wattage bulbs in the lights make it difficult to read. Only a lightweight cover on the bed and no spare blanket meant a cool night. We could have turned the heat pump on but that would introduced noise. Was also hoping to watch the rugby test live but discovered they don't have Sky.

Soundproofed was a feature we hoped for. Floor studio was tiny but nicely appointed for the size. There was a bad smell coming from the toilet bath that did not leave. It is a USA style hotel entrance and not a motel style and the room is closed in with access only through an internal hall with your key. We were kept up by neighbours next door until 6am drinking and blasting tv. Tried repeatedly contacting desk at 4am for help. Finally got someone to answer and send they'd send someone. They did. 5 minutes after talking to guests they continued drinking and yelling and blaring TV It was a horrible rest after a long drive and staff didn't care to follow up. Soundproofing didn't stop blaring TV, drunk guests, flushing toilets above and beside... And nothing on at the stadium. Kitchen bench had coffee residue stains all over and toilet had not been cleaned as well and the smell was like a horrible ooze over everything. Expensive and low quality

I stayed at BK's for two nights over the weekend and it was perfect! I slept in the Premium Studio which was very inviting and comfortable. You could watch YouTube on the TV whilst in bed! One small thing I loved was the cutlery offered in the drawers. They where long, golden and really neat! Unfortunately, I did notice cobwebs in a corner, despite the room being generally clean. The food on offer was delicious and very filling and they have options for all dietary requirements. A drink I recommend is the Mediterrenean Smoothie. Having room service offered for meals is great, but I did sit in the dining room for Breakfast on my first morning and it was very empty, which I think is a shame as the dining room is beautifully set up. I think there should be more encouragement for guests to have meals together in the dining room. The staff are very friendly, positive and helpful, and made sure that my stay was the best. They where a great help with offering to hold on to my backpack after check-out before I left Palmy later in the evening. I will totally be coming back for a weekend stay in the future and definitely recommend!
