Comfort Hotel Benvenue
7.7 (42 reviews)

Comfort Hotel Benvenue ★★★★

📍 16/22 Evans Street, SH1, Maori Hill, Timaru

"We were on our way south, and needed somewhere to stop for the night, but were not at all happy with our choice. For some reason Timaru was very expensive that night; well over $200. The only good thing about our room was the size -- lovely and big, with lots of floor space. However, it's on a hill on the main road so vehicles are revving to get up, and lorries are using engine brakes to slow going downhill. We got very little sleep. As we were checking out we noticed somebody on the rowing machine in the gym -- vaping. It turns out this was the desk clerk. Safe to say we will not be back."

Parklands Motor Lodge Timaru
8.3 (83 reviews)

Parklands Motor Lodge Timaru ★★★★

📍 65-67 Evans Street, Waimataitai, Timaru

"The location of motel is nice n clean also very convenient, there is a park behind and a short walk to lighthouse, Caroline Bay a longer walk. Just a short drive to Oxford resturant and we enjoy a good dinner there. Breakfast the next morning is at station cafe beside the train station… there are also small shopping shops around although is a Sunday."

Asure Ashley Motor Lodge
9.3 (50 reviews)

Asure Ashley Motor Lodge ★★★★

📍 95/99 King Street, Kensington, Timaru

"This motel is very clean with large rooms. The owner was very friendly upon check in and when we had a question about the heat he responded immediately. The only drawback is that there are no dine in restaurants within walking distance. There is a small take out Chinese restaurant close which seemed a bit odd the way it was run, but the food we had was really good."

Aspen on King
8.9 (69 reviews)

Aspen on King ★★★★

📍 51 King Street, Parkside, Timaru

"I was so happy to stay here. The owner was friendly. The kitchen and living room were spacious. There was even a bathtub, so I tried the spa, but I was too tired and fell asleep. There was an oven, so I could eat a Tomahawk steak. There were plenty of DVDs at the front desk, so it would be nice to watch a movie while having dinner."
