151 on London Motel

151 on London Motel

8/10 Good
"The compact studio room was perfect for a single traveller and very quiet. Netflix was a bonus. The shower's water pressure was great and there were plenty of towels, flannels etc. Good selection of coffees and teas. Only a few minutes walk to 3 supermarkets and a bottle store, plus takeaways if needed. Didn't use the adjacent Thai restaurant but it was very busy which is a good sign. Will definitely consider Motel 151 when back in Whanganui."

Very handy to the city where my friend (who had brought me up from Kapiti) and I had dinner on the Sunday night. Good parking right by our rooms. Very friendly, helpful reception staff member.
