Pinewood Motels Reviews

A very clean, fully equipped Motel. Everything is in order. Cooking utilities are clean. Cleanest Carpet I've ever encountered. Check In is easy. Very near to Fairlie pie 😂

We booked a room for one night only. The online information stated that check-in was from 14:00-20:30. Upon arrival at 7:30 pm, there was no one at reception, and a board outside indicated that the key was in the room. The room was filthy and had a stale smell. At exactly 10am, which was the checkout time, a rude woman knocked on the door while we were packing and washing the dishes. As we were leaving, we noticed information on the wall stating that we had to wash any dishes we used, otherwise there would be a $20 charge. The lady stormed into the room and started stripping the beds. I have stayed in many places and travelled all over the world, and never have I experienced such rude and impolite behavior. We were thrown out of the room. This is not a motel, it's more like a military camp. There were also moths and bugs in the room and we did not sleep all night. What a horrific experience

Very cozy, big and clean room. Staffs was really nice and helpful.

The room is large, divided into living room and bedroom, and parking is very convenient. Relatively clean, with few places to eat or play around. It is 40 kilometers away from Lake Tekapo. If there are no special requirements, it is still very convenient as a transfer.

It was nice to have parking space and the price wasn't bad. There was a market nearby, so I was able to buy the food I needed. The disappointing thing is There is a large daily temperature difference here, so it is very cold at night. The electric blanket on the bed did not work, so it was cold at night. Dishes need to be washed and dried. If you don't, there's a $20 fine.

Clean and tidy, with complete facilities, better service, and outdoor barbecue.

The accommodation is a little bright. Location is ok, lots of beds.

Not very good, lots of room for improvement.

The front desk was closed, but my name and room number were written on the board, and the room was unlocked, and when I went inside, the key was on the desk. There is a parking space in front of each room, and the room was large and easy to use when used by one person. It is convenient to have a refrigerator, microwave oven, electric pod, IH, and other home appliances. If you do not wash and dry the kitchen utensils, you will be charged.

Just an overnight stop. The room was large. The bed was comfortable. The shower was nice. Slept great room was quiet.

Easy check in with friendly staff! I believe it is owner operator with the owners on property. We parked right outside out unit. Very clean and nice with lots of dishes and glasses to use in the unit. Close enough for a few minute walk to the main point of town where the grocery and a few restaurants are.

Excellent facilities, friendly staff, easy access to restaurants and shops. Lovely location, easy access to Mount Cook, etc.

It was nice, with a lot of spaciosh and very clean! Good starting point for going to Lake Tekapo by own car. One thing: reception is available in the morning from 9.00h. When you like the early checkout, ask the stuff in the afternoon before😉

Kitchenette facilities were excellent, far superior to any other motel we stayed at. Staff were friendly, room was spacious. Dinner in the Old Library as recommended by the owner, was excellent.
