The place was warm and inviting when I arrived after a long day travelling, heat pump on and curtains pulled; and they made sure I knew where to go to get some good food.
And then when I walked out in the morning, they had thrown a sheet over the front windscreen of my vehicle so it wasn't iced over, made the start of my day that much better.
It was a fantastic stay!
Tony and Carrina are friendly, helpful and very accommodating, as two of us needed a room and the other couple had a caravan, which we were allowed to park at the motel.
Motel is very close to the town shops. Older Motel, but clean, warm and comfortable. Would stay again if in Cromwell.
Would totally recommend this accommodation to anyone on business on holiday.
Tony and Carrina are wonderful hosts and really appreciated my car being covered with a sheet to combat the hard frosts this week.
They go the extra mile.
Room was tidy and presentable, spacious. Kitchen cabinetry a bit outdated but had everything required including filter coffee. Great location. Great moteliers. Friendly and worked in with local restaurant for specials for guests. thoughtful enough to put sheets over cars windscreens overnight to prevent them being frosted over thumbs up for that thoughtful and forward thinking. Great value.
Walking distance to restaurants, cafes, local pool, two gyms, the mall.

It's our ONE YEAR ANNIVERSARY!! We have been here for a year now and have accomplished loads for the business, we're building a life we are excited about for our kids, exploring all that Cromwell (and surrounding) has to offer, and yes I can't do a flashback video without finding multiple golf clips. 🫣😌 We've got incredible staff, we changed our booking system, redid our website and host it ourselves, upgraded bed runners, cutlery, teas and coffees, we've "had the trowel out" a lot (IYKYK), we had the greenest grass over Summer, painted here and there, and the list goes on... THANK YOU TO ALL OUR CUSTOMERS OVER THE LAST 12MONTHS. It's been an honour to host you! 😊😊 thank you also to our helpers advisors, neighbours, and our new community. We appreciate your input! #lakedunstanmotel #cromwellaccommodation #cromwellnzButton

Andrew and the team give you an incredible trip up the Dunstan. He runs the @lakedunstanexplorer which is kinda like a fancy taxi with a super knowledgeable guide, no musty smells or fluffy dice, he's on time and you won't regret the ride! Go from Clyde to Cromwell or vica versa, with or without a bike, before or after you ride. Such a unique way to experience the trail. Get amongst it! #lakedunstan #clyde #cromwellnz #lakedunstantrailButton

We got out with the legend himself, Andrew from @lakedunstanexplorer and got a unique view of the Lake Dunstan Trail.
