"We had such a great stay at Harrington’s Motor Lodge. The staff were absolutely lovely and so welcoming. The room was clean, comfortable and had everything we needed. We stayed for two nights and were pleasantly surprised that the room was cleaned each day, which was a nice touch. The location is great too. It’s right across from the Esplanade and park. There’s also a BP within an easy walking distance, and it’s not too far to walk into town. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and honestly couldn’t fault it. Would definitely stay here again next time we’re in Palmerston North!"
