We arrived quite early (noon) and were happy that a room was ready for us to freshen up before visiting Punakaiki. Very friendly staff who recommended a great restaurant within walking distance (Buccleugh's). They also recommended an alternative drive to Nelson, along with a hiking recommendation - we took their advice and were very happy with our choice. Room was... More

This is a great motor lodge. The staff were very friendly and the quality of the room was fantastic. Indeed, I've can't say I've ever experienced a better quality motor lodge anywhere in the world (and I travel a lot). I only used Greymouth as a stop over between long driving days on the South Island but this place surprised... More

Travelled to this motel recently with my elderly parents who were on holiday from overseas. Our first impression when we arrived at the motel reception, was a very unfriendly woman who came to our assistance from a hidden office. The gentleman was busy on the phone and she was buzzed to assist us. She just rambled on our motel room... More

Absolutely nothing wrong with the Gables; clean, well presented but very standard NZ motel fare; you park outside the only door to you unit which is one of a number around a car park. It's a little way out of the centre, but it's near a supermarket and pizza place. The worst thing is Greymouth itself. My advice would be;... More

We were staying in Greymouth on our way through to Fox Glacier. We arrived in this sleepy little town weary from the drive from Christchurch. Our host was extremely friendly and accommodation. The room was extremely spacious but definitely needs a bit of a modern makeover. Still the room was quiet and fit our needs for the overnight stay. More

We stayed here for one night in December 2011. We stayed overnight before catching the train back to Christchurch. The room was clean, spacious and comfortable and had everything that we needed. The host was friendly and helpful and we enjoyed our stay. Located a little way from Greymouth centre, on the main road. Quiet, had a good night's sleep. More

The Gables Motor Lodge is a good quality motel where you find everything you need to spend a comfortable night while on the road but where you would not want necessarily to stay for a longer period. On the plus side, the bed was comfy, the shower was nice, everything was sparkling clean and free internet is provided. On the... More
