"The staff were extremely welcoming and could not have been more helpful. Thames is an excellent base for touring the Coromandel peninsular.The accommodation was excellent in every respect the only slight downside was that it is directly opposite a busy vehicle distribution centre so the view was not great."

Paeroa Motel

3.0 star property
6.2 out of 10, (14)
"I would recommend staying somewhere else. Bugs everywhere in the room, especially when it was night. I stayed in room 10 which sits in the sun all day. There are no blackout curtains for all the windows so the room gets very warm. The water from the sink tasted like dirt. But worst of all, The husband that runs the motel is a rude and impatient human being. Stay somewhere else."
