Such a lovely place to stay. When we arrived we were given a couple bottles of beer which was much appreciated after the drive from Auckland. We had the two bedroom unit which was perfect for our family of four with a 12 year old and 16 year old. Bedrooms are compact but the living space didn’t feel cramped. Would definitely stay again as the staff were friendly, it was quiet, modern and clean

Staff are friendly. Cabins need updating so felt it was pretty average. I expected it to be in better condition for the money spent. It was clean, however lots of spiders.

The Best in Town

Can't fault the Colonial Motel.. the onsite owners were most welcoming and friendly. The Colonial Motel is located just up the road (5 minute walk .. uphill) from Kerikeri's best hotel/restaurant the Pligh and Feather!
