The host was really friendly, and the room really clean. The property had a large back yard area which was great for kids, and the kitchenette was really useful. Would stay again.
Our Host was incredibly friendly and helpful. The motel is in a great location for visiting Hobbiton and for exploring the area. Tower Road is wonderful for bicycling and walking!
Spent one night here with my partner as we had a tour booked the next morning at Hobbiton and it was close by. The room and property were great and the host Andy was very kind and helpful. We really enjoyed our stay. Thank you.
What a delightfully retro Motel!!! We loved the location (just outside of town), easy parking in front of our room and plenty of space for our stay. Also, Andy the owner was very welcoming.
We LOVED our stay here and Andy was so kind and helpful. The room was comfortable with thoughtful touches like hot chocolate mix and milk in the fridge. Very clean too! The town of Matamata was delightful with great food options, and you can’t beat the proximity to Hobbiton. I wish we would have had one more day just to relax and would like to come back!

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
It is a basic and slightly quirky little motel. The staff are extremely helpful and friendly, the rooms are very clean and the bed was comfy.
My son and I stayed at the Tower Road Motel for one night. The room was really clean and comfortable. It was a quiet place to sleep and easy to get to the sites around Matamata. The owner was really friendly and accommodated our early arrival. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend.
Wonderful accommodation. Comfortable beds & pillows, great kitchen facilities, staff (Andy) was fabulous, and there's even a very polite and friendly on-site cat to greet you when you arrive.
Love this place - HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

Everything was great - easy to find, helpful and friendly host, clean and well equipped room.
Very clean and comfortable. Owner/Manager was the most helpful and personable gentleman. Quiet spot on the edge of town. Would highly recommend this motel.
