The room was very clean and well-equipped but really could benefit from some refurbishment. The bed was comfortable and made up daily to a very high standard. The shower had good pressure and plenty of hot water The receptionist was pleasant and welcoming and the cleaning staff were helpful and responsive. Overall, this is a very good place to stay.

Nice play, family friendly, had all the essentials. The only downfall is the plumbing. We could hear some plumbing lines in the wall bag constantly when someone was using the shower. Besides that, receptions was super friendly!

Stayed at Summit Motor Lodge in Tauranga and was really impressed! The place was clean, comfortable, and the service was friendly and welcoming. The location is super convenient — close to shops and easy access to the motorways. But the best part for us was that it’s pet friendly, which made our stay so much easier and enjoyable. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a great place to stay in Tauranga!
