Lantern Court Motel

Excellent customer service, they were so helpful and friendly, the rooms are awesome and the bed super comfortable

Great place, right in the center of town. Historic building (although we were in the building behind, so not sure whether it was an original or not). We had the corner room on the ground floor - an extremely spacious room, with a small dining table, kitchenette and a triple aspect sitting area. The kitchen was well equipped, even with a coffee plunger. Nice bath as well. Decor is somewhat dated but the space more than made up for it. We'd stay there again.

Great accommodation in easy walking distance of probably the best attraction, walk, and pub in the town, and some nice cafes for breakfast. Friendly management. Just a nice place to stay. The Power Station Walk is relatively easy and really pleasant. Taste the gin and eat at the Dawsons Pub. Nothing else to know really.....

Booked in as part of our trip through the Lewis Pass from Blenheim. Character building and what I expect at the front may have been an old 'hotel' back in the day. Nobody was at reception when we arrived (mid afternoon on a Wednesday), but the phone at reception was quickly answered and a couple of minutes later we were greeted and checked in to our room out the back on the gound level. Could not fault anything here really (although a wall/bedside light in the master bedroom for readers would have been welcomed). The unit itself was a good size, had a carpark outside, double glazing (warm and reduced any road noise I expect), a confortable bed and a couple of radiator heaters which were quick to warm the unit up on a cooler and rainy night. The place was tidy and everything form milk in the fridge to salt and pepper made for a pleasant stay.
