Top Upper Moutere Hotel Reviews

Castles Motel and Driftwood Motel

10/10 Excellent

"Great. Very clean, parking right near the room."

Quest Nelson

10/10 Excellent

"last minute booking due to a canceled flight. We wanted a tidy place to sleep at a good price and we were so happy when we came across this option. Really liked the way you can slide a huge glass door to the bedroom to make it quieter but being glass it kept the entire space feeling bigger. The place is so clean and everything was very comfortable. Staff were lovely."

Kimi Ora Eco Resort

8/10 Good

"Room up on the hill was great. Clean with great views. There was some confusion about leaving luggage with the front desk before check in since we had a trip before check in time and despite me emailing them earlier and them agreeing to it but once that confusion was sorted, rest was fine. Had dinner (vegetarian options only) but it was good. Service was excellent. Breakfast options could be better. Free parking space outside room was good. There was a very loud concert nearby which was playing loud music till 2130 and started again at 0700 next day but not the fault of Kimi Ora and to be fait to them, they emailed us a couple of days before to warn us and so didn't have any time to change the booking but to be fair, it didn't bother us too much. The staff were very apologetic. Overall enjoyed out stay."
