Room was very comfortable and spacious, although the bathroom was 'tired' . Bed was excellent, but you need to remove the decorative red cushion it didn't smell very nice and looks old. Breakfast was good. The staff were fantastic. Everyone so helpful and friendly, including the waiting staff at our PACIFICA Event.

This hotel is exactly what you're paying for. My wife and I stayed here for one night as a place to lay our heads before driving further on our adventure. The hotel is not in the best of neighborhoods, and the hotel does have limited gated parking. The staff was friendly, and there wasn't any issues during our stay.

Perfect location. Amazingly quiet even though location is central. Beds were super comfy and we all slept well. Accomodation was roomy and it was a bonus having a full kitchen and fridge. We travelled with our two dogs and so appreciated the well kept and inviting grassy areas. We will definitely stay here again even if not travelling with our dogs.
We also loved the easy check in and check out.

Palmerston North is not a place I'd generally choose to go. But I came for a show for the night at the Regent. Fantastic show. I was also pleasantly surprised by local cafe Joe's Garage. Excellent coffee and food. Walking distance everywhere, great Asian restaurants too.

The shopping is Fantastic especially Kmart and the Plaza, and also the OPP Shops. LOL I walked around a bit more this time and discovered some great shops which we don't have in Wanganui where I live. I mainly went for a Buddhist Retreat but extended my stay to do some great shopping. Favorite shops, Kmart, Salvation Army Shop, St Vinnies Opp shop and St John Opp shop. Food shops Ocggi Sushi at the Plaza mall, Noodles N Dumplings, McDonalds at the Plaza. I also shopped at Downtown Souvenirs and Gifts, Whitcoulls the Plaza, Aquisition's, Hello Banana, Inspire me and a few other shops. I had to use taxis because I have a mobility problem, but they were cheap because I used my mobility card for a great discount. I don't think I would avoid anything;

The motel was easy to find, very clean and had a very comfortable bed. The staff were very nice. It was very reasonably priced. It has limited kitchen facilities, but is fine to make yourself a simple breakfast.

Kmart open until midnight - crazy!.
Kmart open until midnight - crazy!. The park in the centre of city is beautiful and big. There is lots of completely different features including massive deck chairs that can sit an entire family or plenty of spaces for picnics. Short walking distance to every place you would want to go, free parking if you are willing to walk a couple of blocks to get to the malls/plaza. Food is AMAZING, especially the Korean restaurant we went to, and the bubble tea in plaza is yummy - they have fruit balls if you don't like tapioca like us. Plenty of shopping, only wish some of the stores stayed open a bit later, so much to do, so little time.

Palmerston North has pretty countryside surroundings and lovely wide streets but the town square is very tricky to navigate and gets busy but that's where the shops are mostly.
Very little to do there for apart from walks, gardens and cafes. That's all the brochures offered. We went op shopping which was really good. Too many fast food eateries but very few good restaurants. We went to the turkish cafe, really good.
We went up the Wind farm to view the turbines, no where to stop and take decent photos!! And everyone drives too fast up there.
No activities in town for indoor wet weather entertainment.
I've travelled all around NZ and found this town pretty boring in comparison.. We were there for a tournament, luckily we were at that venue mostly (Heads up to Hockey Manawatu). Only ate out once for dinner. ! So many missed opportunities!!

Check google maps, once you work out the way the main streets are laid out it is easy to navigate. Shopping experience along with ample restuarants. The countryside around Palmerston North is well worth a look as are nearby cities about 1 hour or so away like Napier or Wanganui.

We were very glad of a room to stay as accommodation in Palmerston North was sold out. The staff were friendly and there was plenty of off road parking. The room was basic and clean. We had a sink and towels provided in our room. The picture very much sums the place up - it looks like it has been a local stopping off place for many years and the pub frequented by locals. Was able to help myself to a cup of tea and toast in the morning.
The room was perfect and we enjoyed the homemade breakfast, like muesli, cookies, jam and marmelade.
Unfortunately I got an infection and the lady of the house rang around to find a surgery, but no luck and she told us to go to the ED at the hospital. We did so and I felt much better the next day. Thank you lady of the house.
We would have liked to stay at least another day, but we had booked already a hotel at our next destination.
It was such a fab. stay definitely more than I expected: spacious rooms, excellent cleanliness, warm hospitality, and even easy breakfast items were prepared with the consideration that shops are far from the accommodation. Very good communication of the host and kindness to wait for me till the late time. All the facility and rooms were very comfortable and the best place to have a rest.
The size and comfort of the room. This suited my family and I and met all our needs. We did have to book an extra night, due to unforeseen circumstances, due to the popularity of the hotel, all rooms were booked, so we had to go somewhere else.
We loved the suite was great size and the spa bath was a plus! The location is great if you want to do a quick shop at the Plaza as it is just across the road. As with most hotels and places in Palmerston North its nice and central
Location, comfort, cleanliness was fantastic and staff was really nice too. Our family had a great stay, beyond our expectations. Would definitely book again here if we ever visit Palmerston North again.
Didn’t have breakfast there as we were meeting family
Very spacious and ultra clean lovely Lady at reception who was very pleasant and helpful
Highly recommend A+++++
Everything was brilliant. Room facilities, cleanliness, size, location, receptionist, etc. were all outstanding. The best hotel we have ever stayed in New Zealand.
Easily accessible Location perfect for our needs. Not far from after hour restaurants. walking distance from main Palmerston North Hospital. Caring hotelier.
Always like the beds & the linen at this hotel, very dreamy. Staff are excellent, friendly & accommodating. Location of hotel is very important to us too.
