Utuhina Hot Springs Lodge

Room was nice and big. Shelves under bathroom sink need a thorough clean and behind the radiator was quite dusty (I’m asthmatic) but other than that the room was great. The water gets really really hot in the shower but I imagine that the water in the hot springs heats the showers so just something to be aware of especially if you have a baby or young child with you.

The hot pool was just lovely and the room was very clean and tidy with some lovely curtains, linen and blankets. Unfortunately there are quite a few areas of disrepear in the room which could do with some fixing. Also perhpas looking into ensuring emergency meeting area informaiton is available in the room.

Wouldn’t stay there again because of the long term residents on the property which made our group feel unsafe. Wifi was advertised but it didn’t reach our area which was a problem for international travelers. Front desk were accommodating by giving us credit to top up data on the one NZ phone we had which was great. Would be a great cheap place to stay for 10+ people if it was a safer area.

We were late to check in and staff was very accommodative. Much appreciated. Price for the stay was cheap and we know it comes with the tag. We got a bigger house instead of two rooms we actually booked. The house was untidy, had cockroaches. There was no hot water in the night from the point we checked in and came next morning. Heaters did not work, so gave us coupe of portable heaters. Overall, we were disappointed.

Worst unexpected experience!!! The place was not clean at all, rubbish wasn’t cleared from the room, dirty bedspread, mouldy cupboard with cockroaches roaming, toilets closet really dirty with poo. I had to find another motel to stay as we couldn’t stand the uncleanliness. The lady at the site mentioned about refunding the amount which we haven’t received even after a week nor any further communication from their side.

It was good value for money. The staff were friendly. The bed and shower were good, the two essentials I required for the night. The room was warm. Tea and coffee were provided along with a jug to boil the water. Unfortunately there were no cups.

Friendly staff, excellent location, linen clean, TV fiddly, shower needs attention

The cockroaches the alcoholics the late night arguing

Loved the hot pool.. was the only highlight of our stay here.. Motel has great potential but is unfortunately run down & requires renovation & a lot of maintanance..

Price was right. But the place was under construction and work started early morning with power tools right next to the door. Old building so i guess it was just ok.

Had 4 toilet rolls for 11 people over 3 days. Advertised with wifi and sky. None. Wifi was only in one villa. Cold. Had 2 five bar oil heaters to heat a 2 storey. Internal heating was not connected.

Always great to enjoy natural pools

To make sure sheets and bed linen are clean. We had blood on our pillow cases,and insects and ae cockroach in our bed. Used Sanitary pads and underwear by the heated pool.

It was a great place stay. Close to the city centre and amenities. The hostess was very friendly and helpful. We will be back for sure.

Its ok value for money. Bed was good. I enjoy the outdoor pool but this motel is well past its use by date. Manageress was pleasant.

Very good location, very friendly, informative staff

Toilet wouldnt stop flushing, the building was on a lean, light switch above bed was sparking and a fighting and screaming took place in the room next to us.. wont be back!

I liked the feel of the property. Many say it’s a hole. I say not. I have been back again and will keep going back. A little TLC could be had. But adds to the character. And the helpful service staff make you over look this.

Instalações antigas e precisando de uma reforma, Organização e Limpeza aceitável, ponto positivo fica para a smartv que me permitiu assistir o Netflix !

This property should be shut down. The worst part was the attitude of the female manager. Abusive to her partner and rude to customers. Premises disgusting. Room dirty. No milk. No carpark for me. Only one towel for two people. Shower didnt work. Refused to swap our room. Could hear yelling and loud traffic most of the night. Stayed one night of two booked only because we arrived to late to book elsewhere. Actually felt unsafe. Truly a harrowing experience and Im generally pretty easy to please.
