The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Perfect Play Area

We absolutely loved the outdoor space at U Studios Masterton! The huge lawn with a trampoline and swing set made it perfect for our kids to run around and play. They really enjoyed the freedom of the outdoors and even tried to claim the park as their own! It was a fantastic setting for a family getaway.

Well-Appointed and Clean

The unit we stayed in was impressively clean and well-equipped. I appreciated the little touches such as chocolates on the table that made our stay feel special. The beds were comfortable, and the layout provided a perfect view of the tranquil surroundings, ensuring a restful night's sleep.

Pleasant Shower Experience

Despite the lower water pressure, the warm showers made for a good bathing experience, especially after a long day of travel. The bathroom was tidy and well-maintained, which added to my overall enjoyment of the stay.

Relaxing Entertainment Options

I enjoyed the Netflix options provided in the room. While there was no Sky TV, having access to great family-friendly content allowed us to relax in the evenings after our day adventures. It made our stay that much more enjoyable.

7.0/10

Overall, my stay had its ups and downs. On one hand, I received an unexpected upgrade to a room with a private bathroom, and the cleanliness of the hotel was commendable. On the other hand, the initial room I was shown was far too small for what I expected, lacking basic amenities like a TV and proper bedding arrangements. The hotel's advertising could certainly use improvement as well.

The upgraded room was clean and equipped with a nice private bathroom, but the initial twin room was misleadingly small and uncomfortable with only one bed.

We had a wonderful two-night stay at this lovely motel set in a quiet garden environment. The room was clean, beautifully decorated, and perfect for our family, complete with a pool and outdoor amenities for the kids. However, the TV didn't work, and there could have been a desk for better convenience. Overall, great for families looking for a relaxing getaway!

My stay at this hotel was quite memorable, especially with its family-friendly amenities and a peaceful environment. The hosts were incredibly welcoming, adding a nice touch to the experience. However, some issues with room cleanliness and a lack of daily servicing were disappointing. Overall, it’s a lovely spot to relax and enjoy outdoor meals, though it could use more consistent management.
