The room itself was nice enough, the bathroom especially. Tidy and well kept. But after returning in the evening to find a pair of shady hooded figures smoking in the parking lot right near my room windows, I admittedly did feel a bit unsafe at the place.

I stay at motels in porirua regularly of late and this is by far the best one yet! Will definitely rebook :)

Didn't get to stay as they cancelled my booking 3 hour after making it, when I rang to ask why said they had over booked and that was all, not even a apology just all matter of fact

Terrible!!! I have been a regular customer of Amethyst Motor Lodge for two years and stayed there numerous times. However it is now under new management and after the treatment I had from the new owner/manager when I arrived late after a flight delay (10.15pm - not some crazy hour) I will never stay there again. I was greeted by the grumpy old man pretty much shouting at me that he would never open the door late for me again (this is the first time I have checked in beyond their reception time for over the ten times I stayed there). He then proceeded to moan and abuse me when I said that there was no need to be rude and I was a regular customer, he essentially told me that he didn't care about that because I had arrived late (once) and disturbed him and they didn't need the business. Lovely way to treat a loyal customer!

Horrible service from the old lady. Me and my friends were staying there for one night and she made us pay an extra bond of $100 because she thought we were going to have a party in our rooms and break stuff when in fact we came for a wedding. Later it turns out she actually had no authority to ask for bond

Not impressed that upon leaving my bag behind, when my daughter went to pick it up, she was made to wait 10 minutes at the counter before being attended, even though the manageress could be seen just sitting in the back room. She was then told to vacuum the carpet by Sandra Carrick after walking in a small amount of sand. The very nice cleaning staff whom were there offered to do it, but the manageress insisted my daughter do it,she is pregnant. This is disgraceful bullying from a person who should not be in the hospitality industry. Upgrade your rude manners in person & on the phone as I was appalled at the way I was spoken to just trying to book this place. I will never return to this motel until management gets an overhaul with pleasant staff. We have stayed in many hotels & motels in NZ this year this one had the rudest management. You should be ashamed of the way you treat people, I feel sorry for your staff.

Exceptional service and impeccably clean accommodation. The motel is a stones-throw from a main motorway, the only downside to it's location is that it is positioned on what is (functionally) a one way road due to un-passable mid-road barriers, so getting in and out without stress will require a bit of time looking over local maps so you can negotiate the unavoidable nearby roundabouts that will give you the option to point yourself in the right direction. Charge-back is available with several local food outlets, and the guests parking is ample. Best of all, the hosts are completely charming!
