鳳凰汽車旅館(Phoenix Motels)

Room was spacious and clean. We weren’t however impressed with the check in “surprise” comments on bringing my 3 year old, while the booking clearly stated we had booked for 2 adults and a child. Place was marketed suitable for families but we did not feel welcomed as such, and as foreigners That being said the room itself was good, noise from the very busy street right by the windows was extremely noisy with the pass g trucks through the night.

We were looking for a place in Timaru and all were sold out so stayed at the Phoenix in Temuka instead. Clean and tidy. Good value for money. Easy to find. Comfortable bed. Had a kitchen as well. Not sure we could have asked for more! We’d stay here again.

Dirty bedspread and toilet when we arrived. The owner sorted it all out immediately when we complained though. Fair bit of traffic noise, especially early morning from trucks accelerating out of the corner on the main road. Large unit with a spa bath and lots of space.

a lot of road noise

Excellent motel to stay at and good handy location. Very warm and comfortable and very very clean. Richard the owner was so welcoming and thoughtful turning the heaters and lights on for when we arrived home after a long day away. We enjoyed it so much booked an extra night and another booking 2025. Would recommend these motels to anyone wanting a great place to stay 😊

The property was well maintained and the proprietor was very obliging would stay again

We stopped in here for one night and business. The room was clean comfortable and had everything you would need. The parking was easy and it is a short walk to restuarants and town. The only thing we had a problem with was the road noise. I am not sure if all rooms would be as bad but ours was on the second floor and facing the main road. Others may be used to this but we aren't and it did interfer with our sleep. Apart from the noise it was a good place to stay and well located.

Great stopover between Dunedin and Christchurch.

Great restaurant nearby. Clean room but very tired. Sheets great Cotten, sadly no milk!
