롤스턴 모텔(Rolleston Motel Thames - Wenzel Motels)

Very expensive. $300 plus per day. No electric blanket. No shelves in bathroom. all gear onto floor.

The rooms at the Rolleston were large and included a good size kitchenette and very large bathroom. They were immaculately clean. There is a great outdoor area with a pool, bbq and outdoor seating. The managers were very friendly and helpful - they even offered us free fejoas.

Thank you so much to the amazing hosts for looking after us . After a very unexpected 2.5 hour drive to hospital and a long afternoon and evening in the ED, we were too tired to navigate the roads home again with recent storm slips .. called at 9.40pm with fingers crossed someone would answer , to be greeted by a kind voice willing to have a key waiting, light on and a beautiful clean well presented room waiting for us. We do appreciate this so much. Well appointed , super clean , comfortable stay.

The room was clean and tidy. The couple managing the site were very friendly and helpful- staying up rather late to greet us and make sure we didn’t need anything. Highly recommend.

The swimming pool was good, and the Netflix tv worked well. It was too hot in the room and there was no air-conditioning. The windows had to be pushed to open and close. We were woken at 6 am one morning by a rat in the walls or ceiling. Room was spacious and generally okay, but over-priced for what it was.

It is okay, it has some good points and some deficiencies. First, there is no air conditioning and in mid summer when it is 26+ degrees outside, a fan doesn't cut it. It is way too hot. The motel does have a swimming pool (which not many do), and the rooms are quite spacious (separate bathroom and kitchen area), and we had an outside area that was semi-private, which got plenty of sun. The rooms were very clean, but everything was in need of attention - the cupboard doors, the windows didn't shut without a lot of pushing. No Sky Tv but there is Netflix or Apple TV if you log in. It isn't bad, but it was expensive and on our holiday in other popular holiday areas we paid less for what I regard as better value rooms. We also got disturbed by a rat in the walls or running across the roof at 6 am one morning (there are rubbish bins nearby in the motel next door). Overall, not bad but not good value for the room rate (and note the motel has a no-refund cancellation policy) - I wouldn't stay there again.

Lovely place. Friendly staff. Room was clean, comfortable and a really good size. Highly recommend

Hands down one of the best motels I've ever stayed in. Great modern clean room. A great walk in shower. Friendly service and quiet location. Large tv and robes and slippers provided. I highly recommend and would definitely stay again.

The window in our room,needs repairing.Went to open it & it dropped down,so needs attention.3am trying to close it without being quiet,was impossible.. The outdoor pool was closed,but The Spa Pool was Fantastic.. In our other unit,someone turned the fridge off,while we were out fishing,so we returned to warm bottles of beer. Apart from that we look forward to our next stay with them.
