I chose the cheapest room for a quick overnight stay, was surprised it was so comfortable. The bed was snug and the shower was good. Everything was very clean and tidy, plus plenty of safe parking.

Double glazing although expensive would help cut the noise from the nearby busy road. Fulton Hogan work crews staying at the same time, kept us awake chatting in a large group outside after 11pm.

The rooms were very clean, but they are old. The breakfast was ok, but they didn’t refill the trays when food had all gone. I felt for people who came after us, because their choices were limited

Chair torn.

Helpful with check-in and questions. Breakfast was very good. No AC only a fan. Opened door to balcony to blow in cooler air. Got bitten by bugs. No screens on door or windows to keep bugs out.

Good and quiet location. The facility itself is aging and out of date, our room is downstairs and smells old and dampness, the bathroom don’t have space to put your Toiletrie. The small Air con is not making cool airs, guess it’s just a heater looks like air con, they do have a free standing fan provided, but just not enough for a summer night, we downstairs can’t open windows for safety reasons at night make this worse. We paid 240 for a night during the busy new year eve period, not worth it. The staff is friendly though.

The Settler’s Discovery Motel was a fantastic stay. The room was great, wonderful service with friendly staff, and great food. It was also a short walk to the Whangārei waterfront, and all the fabulous restaurants and cafes. I highly recommend this motel, and would stay again in a heartbeat.
