I cannot even begin to say how much we enjoyed our stay. Great location for visiting local Hobbiton. Sue was an absolutely superb host - this is the absolute best place we have ever stayed in! It is one large house with three bedrooms, a living room and dining room attached to a kitchen, then Sue and her family live in another part. You feel like you are in a well loved home, but not that you are sitting in someone else’s living room - clearly guest only space which makes in comfortable and un-intrusive feeling. The photos on website do not do their rooms justice. All rooms are beautifully and tastefully decorated, with a farmhouse feel, but also modern extras (plenty of unobvious USB charging points throughout rooms for instance). We arranged a time for breakfast and when we came into the dining room, we found yogurt/fruit, cereals and juice waiting for us. Sue then brought pastries, more fruit and then a full cooked breakfast. Quite honestly, the most amazing breakfast I have ever had! Sue will cook a dinner for you if requested (additional cost), or can provide a discount card for restaurant in local Matamata, which we opted for - a great idea so you can see local town and restaurant was a fantastic Italian, only 12 min drive away. She also had an honesty bar and drinks fridge in dining room for you to use. On the day we had to leave, we left room at 10.30 so it could be prepared for next guest, but Sue was very insistent not to make us feel rushed out. So we spent the morning reading and relaxing in lounge, which was prefect before our next drive. Sue even turned up with coffee and homemade lemon scones! We seriously cannot rate Villa Walton and Sue highly enough, and would gladly fly 28hours from the UK again just to stay again.

The hotel is very close to the airport, the restaurant is delicious, and there seems to be no advantages. There are many small hares and squirrels on the small lawn of the hotel. It is not bad to take the children to see.

We stayed early Nov 2023 for our sons wedding. The accommodation is very clean and everything there that you need. Large bathrooms and there was plenty of water and milk provided in the fridge on the first floor. The beds were large and comfortable. The venue for weddings is perfect, plenty of parking and room for large groups in the common areas. The reception room is perfect with a view from all the windows it makes a great backdrop for the photos. The grounds are very well kept and it was a delight to stay there. The staff are so attentive, hard working and so friendly and efficient. Check in was a breeze, very informative and helpful. The continental breakfast was very well catered for starting the day. Thank you everyone at The Narrows Landing, I will be highly recommending to family and friends.

This was a very comfortable cottage in a rural setting just out of town. The cottages located close to the main house open onto a lovely garden. Checking in was easy and the staff very helpful. The only criticism we had was that the lighting in the bathroom was a little poor.

Without a doubt, this was one of our best experiences. We had the pleasure of staying a few nights in early January, with friends who are visiting from the UK - we could not fault a thing. But, what really shows the superb hospitality John and his team turned on for us, was when we had to do a last-minute booking to stay again (late at night) because our friends had been in a car accident and been discharged from hospital. Not only did we get a bed, but John went over, above and beyond to help us in our hour of need. If we ever need to stay in Hamilton again - this will be our first choice. I highly recommend Quantum Lodge to others. Thanks so much John, you're a champion :o)

We stayed at the novotel for 3 night while I had surgery. The hotel is clean and tidy. The rooms are great with everything you would need. We didn't get milk but saw them on a service cart so might have been missed. The rooms were quiet but wouldn't say sound proof. The only issue was parking. We paid 32 for valet parking and it's was fine first night as it was kept in the basement but then it got busy and they took it elsewhere. Hubby was trying to come see me after surgery and he waited 40 mins outside for the vehicle. He isn't someone who likes to go back and follow up he hates confrontation and he waited till 30 mins then went and asked. Staff were friendly and there was always someone on the desk. Room service was good and hubby had dinner but was quiet expensive. I wouldn't stay again if I needed parking. But if I didn't I'd stay there so close to town and hospital

We booked into Podium Lodge initially for two nights, We had a large family group of 3 x couples, a pet dog & parents in a campervan. Unfortunately one of our group was admitted to Hamilton hospital unexepectedly before we had even booked in. The staff went out of their way to help us & regularly checked in with us for updates on how our family member was doing. They kept the rooms pencilled in for us - ensuring that we didn't have to change rooms at any stage & in one case charged us at a lower rate than what they could have. They even left flowers & mandarins in our rooms - ontop of this the actual accommodation was fantastic with lovely clean, quiet rooms & very comfortable beds. All the staff were exceptional to deal with - even down to the cleaners who were awesome & took a personal interest in our welfare. We would all highly recommend the Podium Lodge as the only place to stay in Cambridge.
