we stayed here after escaping from Southpark Motel (see my reviews for details on that place!!)down the road. Masterton Motor Lodge was warm, and welcomming. Lovely clean rooms (and I am a fussy at the best of times)..... The restaurant thought busy was fantastic. We will definately return.

We were in Unit 19 right at the back so it was very quiet. This was a one bedroom unit with kitchen facilities. The unit is very pleasant although the window sills need major work as they are very water stained. We didn't like the shampoo/conditioner products as although they were natural they didn't seem to lather up well at... More

Spacious one bedroom suite with nice outlook and facilities. We could have quite happily stayed longer than our single night had we had the time. Very quiet location. This was our second visit and we will return.

On my return from a motorcycle trip to the South Island I stayed at the Masterton Motor Lodge in Masterton. Because they were down to one room I was offered a two bedroom unit for the price of a single. I happily took advantage of the offer to receive Room 20 at the back of the complex. The furnishings are... More

My family and I just got home from a well needed vacation at the Masterton Motor Lodge. The new owners have definately turned it around! I had stayed there previously when it was all a tad dated and unkept. I spoke to the managers about how amazing the grounds look now. The reception area has been upgraded, as well as... More

This motel goes back to the 60/70's though has benefits over the more modern. Spacious, ground-floor villa-type rooms on large grounds, tennis court, pool, grassed areas for kids ball-play. and way back off the road among trees and shrubbery. Our 2-night stay was very comfortable. Seeding dandelions on the tennis court suggested a shortage pf players. Pool looked clean though... More

Very nice place to stay, would recommend highly. The rooms were spacious and bright and clean. Very well equipped kitchenette. Free guest laundry including free soap powder. Easy parking and good location. Quiet and got a great nights rest. The only downside was internet access was much too expensive, a rip off really. If you stay on a Sunday night... More

Everything now is immaculate and beautifully done. We had intended to stay just one night but it is so clean and lovely that we stayed for a second night. The interiors of the units are like an upmarket house. The restaurant on the grounds bent over backwards for us and the setting is very quiet and tranquil. This was one... More

We had a nice quiet 2 bedroom accomodation at the back of the motor lodge but it was definitely in need of refurbishing. The carpet was very worn and the kitchen definitely needed an upgrade. The bed was sagging but the linens were nice. It would be a great place to stay if it was "renovated". The owner, Wayne, was... More

This hotel had a great restaurant in back. We arrived in the evening, tired from our activity that day. They kept the restaurant open and prepared a tasty meal for us. Convenient location in the Masteron/Carterton area. Rooms were older. Found trash and several dead bugs on the floor of the bedroom. Very little water pressure in the shower.
