    I wanted to be close to the river and the river walks: perfect! And the proprietor emailed me when there was a possibility that I would be late. I appreciated the extra attention.

    Great motel in Turangi, close to the river for morning walks. Good facilities, has everything you need. This is a quiet motel and we have stayed here four times now and we are never disappointed. We will come back.
