What a delightfully retro Motel!!! We loved the location (just outside of town), easy parking in front of our room and plenty of space for our stay. Also, Andy the owner was very welcoming.

Nicely appointed rooms that would be comfortable for more than a night's stay. Liked the opportunity to sit in the small gazebo at the back of the garden. Although out in the country it is situated on a busy road so a lot of traffic noise.

Tower Rd Motel was a comfortable stay with plenty of room for an affordable price. I stayed due to its 15-20min drive to Hobbiton. Check in/out was easy with friendly staff. A short 2 minute drive into town and you'll find a few good food options around. Would recommend it to anyone passing through Matamata

Andy was the perfect host, very friendly and there to meet us on arrival. The Family Room was clean and comfortable. Very close to town and sights to visit. We really enjoyed our stay here! Maybe just move the kitchen bin a bit so you don't bump your head on the cupboards above it!

Close enough to the town but also far enough away. Relaxed check-in, quiet room but you do hear the traffic on the road. Has all the facilities you need in a room and comfortable beds.

The shower water pressure was amazing! It was also nice having a kitchenette. The only downside was it was a bit far from our actual destination (getting the bus for Hobbiton) and there is limited taxi availability… but that was our fault for not knowing.
