Aspree Motor Inn

Inn

Made a reservation 3 weeks in advance, travelled 3 hours only to find out (upon arrival) that they’ve decided to cancel our reservation based upon our looks. Never felt so deflated in my life. Reason for cancellation: they’d had bad experiences with “people like us” before. Discrimination at its finest! Definitely wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone unless you’re happy to negotiate for over half an hour with staff begging to let you stay, happy to provide ID of each person who will be staying and an extra $400 bond to make these people feel better about a group of people staying.

Never have I EVER felt so disrespected! Upon arrival were told that our booking had been cancelled and that we needed to have ID to prove our ages? First of all we are all over 18 and second of all how rude to be discriminated on our ages in the first place. To add to that we were also asked to pay a $400 bond before being allowed to stay because of this reason! How pathetic, after travelling 2 hours out of town to come here our trip has been completely ruined. If we had of known that we were going to be treated like this we sure as hell wouldn’t have booked here. They may need to write “under 25’s not welcome here” in their policy to save all the hassle.

Turned up from Hawke’s bay with rooms booked get here and they cancel our booking based on assumptions of our age and how we look. Discrimination in the best form. Would not recommend to anyone coming from Afar to stay here as they’ll cancel your booking as you arrive.

We were left in the air when another place had overbooked and everywhere was booked then this little beauty popped up we ere amazed at the service and the rooms as they competed with some so called expensive accommodation and the price amazing thank you.

They were not only very welcoming bit very helpful. Highly recommend to all. Thank you Aspree.

There's not much ventilation in the rooms and with no air-conditioning they are very hot in this heat we are experiencing during the summer of 2018 but I'm betting they're going to very comfortable in the winter.

Excellent place to have a quick stop over while travelling around the North Island. Situated on the main Eastern arterial route and close to the centre of town.

Can't fault this place. The rooms are clean and modern, and the staff are great.

Clean and comfortable. Recently renovated, Nearby amenities (including Countdown supermarket)

Nice and quiet considering being so close to the road. Great staff very friendly.

Love it. I'm coming back. Lovely modern rooms, great staff. Located within walking distance to everything.

Very clean, comfortable, quiet and warm motel. Very great for the price in comparison to other motels/hotels in Palmerston. Very friendly staff. Pretty good Wi-Fi, super close and convenient to Countdown and New World. Would definitely recommend and stay there again!

We stayed for four nights while visiting a family member in hospital. Very comfortable bed. Hot shower and warm unit. Very happy with our stay.

Thanks for a great stay. The room was well appointed, clean and tidy, and the beds were very comfortable.

So we had booked a room but we turned up and got told that they just canceled our booking and due to our age (we are all 18) what it sounded like is that they cant take a risk with us wrecking the room but when we are actually just a group traveling around nz and needing a place to sleep so sadly tonight we have ended up having to sleep in our cars due to not being able to find a place last minute so thank you so much for comparing us to all the other 18 year olds.

Great front desk service. Outstanding clean and tidy rooms. Plenty of parking for cars and trucks. Close to town.

Great service, nice people, very reasonably priced, great restaurant food, tidy clean room, ample parking, especially for trucks.
