We had such a blast staying at this motel! The location was perfect, just a short walk to shops, restaurants, and even the bus stop and ferry. The room was modern, clean, and had all the amenities we needed. The air conditioning was a lifesaver during the chilly winter days. The kitchen was well-equipped, although we could have used another cooking pot. The bed was comfortable, and we loved the convenience of operating all the lights from the bedside. The bathroom was spotless, with a heated towel rail and great water pressure in the shower. The double glazed windows kept out noise and cool air. The staff were kind and accommodating, ensuring our room was ready before our arrival.

We felt so at home during our stay at this motel, we have no complaints at all.

My partner and I recently stayed at the Dolphin Motel for a few nights. We were in Paihia for a relaxing getaway and the motel's location was perfect. It was conveniently within walking distance to the city centre, wharf, and main beach. The room itself was small but well laid out, with a great shower. Margaret, the manager, was incredibly helpful and friendly, even going above and beyond to assist us with a problem we had with our hire car. The property was simple yet clean, and had everything we needed. we had a pleasant stay and would definitely recommend it.

Loved the complementary welcome drinks and snacks! Great central location, just a short walk to shops and restaurants. The room was very clean and modern.

The smell of the cleaning product in the room was overpowering and took some time to dissipate. The spa only ran for a short time and then stopped working.

The rooms are regularly cleaned, but the cleaning product has a strong smell. The staff are helpful and friendly. The motel is centrally located in town, making it convenient for exploring. The location is safe and quiet, despite being close to shopping and dining areas.

Very modern, spacious, well located, secure bike storage, great location.

Don't have any issues at all.

The beds were really comfortable, ensuring a good night's sleep after a long day of work. The rooms were well-maintained and tidy, creating a pleasant atmosphere. The staff were friendly and provided excellent communication throughout my stay. Additionally, the hotel's location was convenient, with key amenities and attractions within easy reach.

The bathroom setup was not ideal as there was no proper shower cubicle. This led to water splashing all over the bathroom floor after every shower, which was quite inconvenient and created a slipping hazard.
