A lovely location and tidy room, great host who was lovely to chat to and gave great tips for places to eat, best time to leave to get to my Hobbiton tour etc which was super appreciated! Lovely cats to have a smooch with too! As a solo female traveller I felt completely safe and at ease here and would absolutely stay again.

We stayed at the Tower Road Motel in Matamata and arrived past check-in time. Andy was super accommodating and very helpful. The motel itself is adorable, clean, and quiet. They provided an informational guide with great tips about nearby areas, which we definitely would have taken advantage of if we had stayed longer. It's only a 15-minute drive to Hobbiton, which was one of the main reasons we chose this place. Overall, we had a lovely experience and would love to stay longer next time.

Nicely appointed rooms that would be comfortable for more than a night's stay. Liked the opportunity to sit in the small gazebo at the back of the garden. Although out in the country it is situated on a busy road so a lot of traffic noise.

Tower Rd Motel was a comfortable stay with plenty of room for an affordable price. I stayed due to its 15-20min drive to Hobbiton. Check in/out was easy with friendly staff. A short 2 minute drive into town and you'll find a few good food options around. Would recommend it to anyone passing through Matamata
