Check-in was a breeze. We were greeted with a warm smile. Room was were well presented. The showers and the toilet facilities were well stocked and clean.( Good size)
The sleeping area has a good follow, the bed was good and comfortable. 
The celing lights were a bit bright. The reading light was great once the ceiling lights were turned off.
The same night there were school age kids staying there. Bit noisy during the night and early in the morning. 
Apart from that good place to stay. The front door design reminds you of a house not a motel. 



Home 

This motel is located write I from of the hospital. No shops or dinner around. 7 min drive to CBD/Plaza.
Place is dirty, noisy and have extremely poor bedding. Issue with a water pressure is really annoying. All the shampoo and liquids are empty or they are in re usable bottles. Bedding is old, and super uncomfortable to sleep on. No window insulations or perhaps plaster walls, so you can hear all the cars running the whole day and night. I could perhaps deal with everything, but dirty place. Not recommended

Dirty, noisy, bad bedding and horrible shower

Clean, budget rooms but very noisy. 
The main issues were: 
- the room smelt like cigarette smoke
- insufficient lighting in the room, so made it difficult to work 
- thin walls, could hear the neighboring guests talking
-  helicopter transfers from the hospital sound like the helicpoter is in your room due to close proximity to hospital

Positives:
- handy location to hospital 
- plenty of on site parking

Was charged a corporate rate of $144 but then saw online that the rooms were $100. Not a great experience all around.
I will not be back.

A disappointing stay

I have stayed in 2 bedroom with my family for 2 night, i love the facilities such as laundry, dishwasher and 65inch tv in lounge. Parking infront of the room, cleanness top class. Staff was very helpful and professional. Highly recommended.

Beyond the expectation 

I have been staying in Carramar for over 2 months and i have had an amazing experience while staying here, reception and room service staff are so professional and friendly. Highly recommended this place to stay. Cafe food is mouth watering.

Excellent stay

I had rung the manager to say we had a high chance of arriving after the 9:00 pm office closure, but unsure due to cyclone damaging bridge on way there - might not get thru etc.  He said no problem, he would leave the door unlocked and the key inside.

When we got there it happened to be just after 9 pm - being after office closure, we parked up and went straight to the room - door was locked.  A few minutes later the manager appeared.  His first words were not "welcome" or "how was the trip" or "glad you were able to get through from your damaged city".  Instead it was "you said you were coming at 10:30 pm". I had said no such thing but he wasn't worth the argument.  How rude not ask how we were after our trauma back in Napier, but instead focus on the time he thought we had said we would arrive - I had said I didn't know, that it could be late.  To me, if we were arriving any time after 9 pm, it did not really matter - the door would be open.  But no, it wasn't.  How was I to know he wouldn't leave the door open till exactly 10:30 pm.

The room was nice and spacious, the kitchen well laid out, the bathroom a nice size with all we needed, plus extra towels.  The 2 bedrooms (we had the apartment suite) were great (couple and a single).  The lounge was good but the couches uncomfortable.  The worst was the bed - I woke up with a sore neck and bones.  Would stay again if they had a different manager/owner.

Nice place - manager a bit off

I stayed here while visiting my wife, who is across the road in hospital.

I really enjoyed staying at the Carramar motel because the staff were so friendly and helpful. The rooms were up to date and very clean and the cafe had good food.

I will definitely be staying here again in the future.

Great experience

The bed was amazing, and the bathroom had a bath as well as a separate shower. The water was hot and strong. And every thing was clean and maintained. If we could we would rate this motor inn 10/10. The staff were super helpful and friendly. The motel is close to many of the attractions Palmerston North has to offer 👍🙂

A perfect place for a base to explore Palmy Nth and and recover in peace and comfort

Absolutely suited our needs as it was just across the road to the Palmerston North Hospital. We highly recommend choosing Carramar Motor Inn. The room was comfortble, warm and clean. The bathroom space was huge with fantastic shower pressure.  We felt very welcome by our hosts. Will definitely stay here again.

Top Accommodation

I stayed 3 nights while working at the hospital across the road. Check in was simple, the room was comfortable and spacious. The bath was very welcome. The attached Zest Cafe had amazing breakfasts and were fast service. I will definitly be staying again.
