We had a wonderful stay here. The room was big and comfortable. Having a kitchenette was an added bonus with a seating area at the back of the room. The location was near a park with some lovely trails. Would definitely recommend for your drive around the South Island!

Andorra Motel is situated on 1 acre of peaceful, spacious grounds in a quiet and relaxed garden setting. Free WiFi is provided.

Andorra Motel offers a year-round outdoor pool, barbecue and children's playground.

Hands down - from a guy who slept at more than 1000 different hotels. This is the best one. Ever. Sally and the staff there made an unbelievable effort to make this a fantastic stay. All the details were right: from providing a late check in to everything detail in the room - towels folded in a nice way, clean room, unique flair, great kitchen and such friendly staff - we would come back anytime. Loved it.

You can enjoy the unique country village atmosphere in Geraldine. Geraldine Motels is just a short walk to a range of facilities and activities which guests can access including the bowling green, tennis courts, heated swimming pool, parks, domain, museums, and bush and river walks. Two golf courses are just 5 minutes' drive from the property. It is situated a 1.5-hour drive from Christchurch Airport and 1.5 hours' drive to the ski fields.

The unit we stayed in was huge with separate upstairs and downstairs bedrooms. Facilities were excellent. The property is located in town on the main road but we never heard any traffic noise. The staff were very friendly and helpful as well. We highly recommend this motel but it is probably a good idea to book well ahead of time to secure a room.

Looking for a motel?

Both travellers on the road and on a budget rely on motels for convenient stops with reasonable rates. Direct access to parking makes a motel an easy place to catch some sleep after a day of driving. The relatively smaller size of this accommodation type can also help to make check-in quick and easy.

    We had a really large room with a king size bed, 2 comfortable side chairs, a small 2 seater dining table and a kitchenette including an electric skillet. Bed comfy and plenty of hot water. John, the owner, even left us cookies and milk - which were delicious. Motel is in a quiet area just on outskirts of Geraldine.

    The unit was immaculate, it was warm and roomy. There was plenty of hot water for showering and washing up. The complex was very quiet and it felt like there was no-one there even though the motel appeared to be full. The bed was comfortable and the pillows were great, and we were warm and comfortable.

    The motel was very comfortable for our 1 night stay. It's on the main road, but we weren't disturbed by any traffic noise. The bed was very comfortable, and the unit was well equipped. It's a short walk into the main part of the town, where there are plenty of eating options, and lots to see.

    Staff was very helpful and friendly, room was clean, location was back from the street and sheltered to be quieter than other motels right on the highway. It was nice to have washer and dryer access (for fee)!

    Possibly the cleanest motel in the South Island. We travelled for ten days and never saw a cleaner motel.

    The atmosphere felt as if I was staying in a low budget motel. There was no AC in our room and the restauran t on the first floor claimed to not serve food. The experience felt peculiar to say the least.
