Last minute booking. Friendly receptionist on arrival. Great room layout, big bed, fantastic breakfast with helpful and friendly staff. Only negative was other guests who smoked outside their room near ours, and the smoke smell came into our room.

The Settler’s Discovery Motel was a fantastic stay. The room was great, wonderful service with friendly staff, and great food. It was also a short walk to the Whangārei waterfront, and all the fabulous restaurants and cafes. I highly recommend this motel, and would stay again in a heartbeat.

Double glazing although expensive would help cut the noise from the nearby busy road. Fulton Hogan work crews staying at the same time, kept us awake chatting in a large group outside after 11pm.
