We stayed here 1 night on route to Taupo. Whilst this was a large and modern room offering all the facilities you would need and in fact would want in a stay, the decor was so bland in shades of grey, black and white, you had an immediate sinking feeling of glumness come over you when you entered the room....

Well located a short drive from the centre of Hamilton and local supermarkets, on the face of it, our unit was clean and contained everything we needed, with a well stocked kitchen, comfortable bed and decent bathroom with shower. It was quite modern in décor, but really lacked any personality, and its black and white theme was just rather bland.... More

The motor lodge is either new or completely renovated. Bathroom large, modern, clean. Bed and furniture good quality and comfortable. Air conditioner top notch Very quiet area even though located on one of main roads into town. Very convenient to Waikato Stadium (5 minute walk). Overall a very good experience.

We based all our accomodation based on ratings and comments on tripadvisor. This was the first time we have done this and I am pleased to say, we were not disappointed. The Hygate was up to the high standard that had been recommendated by others. Not too far from supermarket and a great pub.

The Hygate is a modern, clean comfortable motel and the owner's Dave and Carolyne are helpful and genuinely friendly and caring people. My room had a spa bath, a separate bedroom and a large flat screen tv with all the Sky channels. The unit had everything I needed to make my stay away from home comfortable. It is within walking...

Staying two nights the room was roomy, clean and service by managemnt very good. Location is with all the other Motels in Hamilton, so was expected and suited us for where we needed. Only down side was thin walls, and room next door coming back at 4.30am and slaming doors and then snoring extremely loudly, and the next night the... More

I had a nice, quiet stay at Hygate. The place is lovely. The people are attentive and helpful. the rooms are large and really well cleaned. Oh and the internet access is fast and there were no connection problems. I would highly recommend staying there.

Located some distance from central Hamilton, so need to drive to restaurants. Rooms are large and appear well maintained. Interesting configuration with a long window spanning the kitchen area looking directly onto the car park. Don't know if others can see in, but it gives a feeling of lack of privacy. There is a lot of noise between rooms, so... More

We were only in Hamilton for one night for the Super15 rugby in July. The motel was walking distance to the rugby ground. As a best western we thought it would be good quality and it certainly was. The owners were really friendly and helpful, providing good suggestions about where to eat and things to do. We would recommend the... More
