We arrived to this refurbished motel and we were impressed with its appearance. The manager was unfriendly (perhaps he had a bad day) on arrival, I paid and he didn't even ask us to fill in a form or anything. I thought we had booked a kitchenette, so asked if a toaster in it.. he didnt seem to know... then... More

The motel was relatively easy to find. The welcome was warm and sincere and we were shown to our deluxe double spa bath studio, which was the room closest to the road, we were concerned we may hear traffic noise but the double glazing took care of that. The studio was very spacious as was the bathroom, the bed was... More

If you're visiting Gisborne, make sure you stay here! We recently returned from NZ and spent 3 nights at Ahi Kaa Motel in Gisborne. We stayed in a 1 Bed Unit, complete with private patio/lawn and had a really enjoyable, relaxing and peaceful time. The motel had recently been refurbished to a very high standard and the bed was really... More

The things I want in a Motel in the price range of this establishment are, a good comfortable bed, soundproof rooms for a good nights sleep, clean and well maintained, and helpful management and staff. I usually judge a property by the cleanliness of the shower and in my travels have found many that are old and unclean. This one... More

We were coming from auckland airport. Main access to gisborne. Highway no.2 was closed down for two weeks due to a land slip and the management didn't notify us anything even when we were on the phone with them. This lead to us driving 5hours to a closed road and the only way to gisborne was to drive another additional... More

This is a modern (refurbished) motel close to the city centre. We stayed in a light and airy one bedroom unit with a generous bathroom with a large walk in shower. There was a comfortable bed with crisp clean linen.It was a typical motel style with a good kitchenette. We had the addition of garden space outside our patio doors... More
