Harbour View Motel Reviews

9.0/10

United Kingdom, September 2023

The motel is perfectly located, with a beautiful view of the harbor and just a short walk away from the beach and Timaru center. The rooms are spacious and well-appointed, offering top quality beds and linen. The friendly and helpful staff ensure a comfortable stay. The motel is also new, adding to the overall appeal and ensuring a promising future. Plus, the double glazing effectively cuts down on traffic noise, guaranteeing a peaceful night's sleep.

The WiFi connection could be improved, as it was a bit slow in the bedrooms.

9.6/10

United Kingdom, August 2023

We had a fantastic stay at this place! The location was perfect, right on a major highway and close to everything we needed on our way to Christchurch. The staff provided excellent service, taking care of our housekeeping and laundry needs. The room amenities were top-notch, with ironing facilities, heating, air conditioning, and tea and coffee facilities. We loved the comfortable sitting area and dining table, perfect for relaxing after a long day of travel. The free Wi-Fi in the rooms was a great bonus, and the soundproofed rooms ensured a peaceful night's sleep.

We would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a luxurious and comfortable stay.

6.8/10

United Kingdom, May 2023

The room we stayed in was well-equipped and had everything we needed. The staff were friendly and accommodating, making sure our stay was comfortable. Plus, the location was perfect as it was only a short walk to the nearest shop and a convenient driving distance to all the nearby attractions.

Although the room was comfortable and adequate, the lack of a view made it less appealing than we had hoped. the noise from the main road outside was distracting and made it difficult to relax at times.

United Kingdom, May 2023

Easy check-in, upgraded room with extra wall for noise, short walk to beach. Don't miss penguins and aviary. Great location, spacious studio apartment, comfy bed. Excellent service. No breakfast mentioned or paid for. Modern facilities, clean glass panels, double glazing. Nice modern bathroom, great sleeper bed. Clean, bright rooms, friendly reception staff. Central location to Caroline Bay, surprisingly quiet.
