Spent one night here with my partner as we had a tour booked the next morning at Hobbiton and it was close by. The room and property were great and the host Andy was very kind and helpful. We really enjoyed our stay. Thank you.

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.

What a great find in Matamata. This small property is well maintained and quite personable. You feel like you are living in a guest house vs a motel. Excellent, starched linens and sparse, but workable furniture. The host is great, allows guests to use their extended back garden play area, and the property sits right on the rails to trails path. Very convenient location for a stopover to Hobbiton. Would stay here again.

Wonderful accommodation. Comfortable beds & pillows, great kitchen facilities, staff (Andy) was fabulous, and there's even a very polite and friendly on-site cat to greet you when you arrive. Love this place - HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

We LOVED our stay here and Andy was so kind and helpful. The room was comfortable with thoughtful touches like hot chocolate mix and milk in the fridge. Very clean too! The town of Matamata was delightful with great food options, and you can’t beat the proximity to Hobbiton. I wish we would have had one more day just to relax and would like to come back!

My son and I stayed at the Tower Road Motel for one night. The room was really clean and comfortable. It was a quiet place to sleep and easy to get to the sites around Matamata. The owner was really friendly and accommodated our early arrival. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend.
