“Very Friendly Place”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 February 2011

As we arrived Peter, the manager, gave us a map of the hotel, keys of different rooms and the prices, so we had the opportunity to discover the different rooms and choose one quietly. And that in the middle of the night! Thanks a lot for that Peter! :-)

The rooms were maybe not in the standards of a 4* in Europe but they were clean and quiet, and that was for us the most important. Also the kitchen in the room was complete and usefull.

Peter was very nice and helpful. He also invited us to breakfast with him and so we had the opportunity to discuss with an really interesting kiwi :-) And even if there is no internet in the room, Peter also proposed us to use his computer :-)

So if you want to discover the true New Zealand and the nice people from there go to Peter's motel! :-) Thanks a lot Peter and hope to see you soon! Jenny&Daniel

“Top Quality, my partner and I will be back, great value, geat service”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 November 2010

My partner and I travelled from a little place called Bowen in Queensland, Australia, where we work in a similar motel complex. We received top quality service from Peter and his staff, information on where to dine and places of interest to visit. Though the rooms were a little small and decor at a minimum, it was cosey, clean and comfortable but best of all, the charge rate was very, very good and affordable. We exyended our stay and recommend that should anyone be looking for accommodation in Wanganui then check out Bignell Motels first. I am sure that Peter will give you the best service possible. Thanks Peter. We appreciated your help and advice. We will be back. Toni & Ed

“Very good value for money”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 November 2010

My wife and I stayed at the Bignell Street Motel on two occasions during our extended tour of the North Island of NZ. We received the best value for money here than in any other place we stayed during our tour. The rooms and facilities were neat. Peter One was very friendly, helpful and accommodating.

“Friendly stay and great value”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 November 2010

Me and my partner have been traveling around New Zealand for over two months. The manager Peter at Bignell Street Motel has made this the friendliest place we have stayed so far. The service is great, the rooms were clean and tidy and the kitchen was a nice bonus! The prices were great as well, best value for the money. I would recommend this place to everyone. Peter did a great job in recommending things to see and do in town. Very happy to have stayed here and will go back again!
