We found ourselves at this Hotel because every other place anywhere the venue for the Eagles Concert at Mt Smart Stadium was booked out. It turned out to be a brilliant choice because the Motorway was a complete nightmare any where near Auckland so we chose to drive north to Papakura where we left the car at the "Park & Ride" at Papakura Railway Station" before boarding a suburban train to Penrose where we were able to walk to the venue, At the conclusion of the concert we did the reverse back...

Quick and easy check-in, lived the service. But most importantly loved the cleanliness and modernised room. The bed was so comfy I had to take a look at the mattress so I can enjoy that luxury and buy it 4 myself.

The managers Aaron and Danny are amazing, professional, yet very friendly. They made sure all our needs were met but allowing us the privacy to enjoy the peace and beauty of the Te Karaka lodge surroundings.
Our meals, prepared by the master chef, Franz were as good as we have experienced in any restaurant . Only the finest ingredients selected by him. Presented beautifully with attention to detail and creating wonderfully unique taste combinations.
We cannot recommend Te Karaka Lodge highly...

Just around the corner from Waikato stadium the position of the Bella Vista could be a rugby lover's dream!
Friendly welcome, excellent accommodation. We had the luxury of 2 rooms, generous toiletries in the bathroom plus a well fitted-out kitchen area with everything we needed for mealtimes.The beds were large and very comfortable. Free parking and excellent Wi-Fi too.
We had a 2 night stay and would have been happy to stay longer. Recommended.

Spacious, clean, comfortable motel with all the services we required. It had a full kitchen, separate bedroom, air-con, wifi and was clean a s a whistle. The price we paid was great value for money. Road noise was not an issue. It is not a plush top end motel but was very acceptable with more space than any new motel I have seen.
