This was our third time visiting New Zealand, and staying at Twan & Gerda’s BnB was truly the highlight of our trip! The house is located on a beautiful, quiet farm — very refreshing and relaxing. The room was spotless, smelled lovely, and the decor was cozy and tasteful. We especially appreciated the thoughtful touches: a fridge full of fruits, food, and even a cold beer! Twan and Gerda were incredibly kind and welcoming. We felt right at home and would definitely love to come back. Highly recommended for anyone seeking peace, nature, and genuine hospitality.

    The main point of our trip was to visit Hobbiton Movie Set. This is an amazing experience, our second trip. Have done both the lunch & dinner experience. Food, staff & experience rate a 10. Had a great meal at Sofra, food & staff were great. Breakfast at The Rich Coffee Cafe was nice and the staff were ok. Visited the I-Centre too and found the staff to be helpful.

    Matamata is a nice little town with the usual array of shops and some good eating places. Of course its access to Hobbiton, which was the purpose of our trip, but enjoyed a pleasant evening eating fish n chips in the wooded, shaded park area by the Isite.

    We were in Matamata for a wedding at Hobbiton which was a great experience for us, even though we are not Lord of the Rings fans. Plenty of places to dine and from Maple Lodge was an easy walk into the main centre of town.

    Location was excellent for Hobbiton and Waitomo Caves visit! We could walk to a lovely (and very yummy) coffee shop each morning and a fun brew pub at night. There were other restaurants on the street, but one was having a private party and another was fully booked. If you’re looking for super luxury travel vibe, it’s very hard to find in this area, my friend who is a pretty posh gal was a bit worried. However the Broadway Motel was IMMACULATELY clean, spacious, and very welcoming. We both were very please and highly recommend it!

    Comfortable, spotlessly clean, bright and spacious studio apartment, a 10 minute drive from Matamata and 20-25 min from Hobbiton. Quiet pastoral location. Breakfast provided by host with toast , muesli, muffins, yoghurt and juice plus Nepresso coffee machine. Great shower. There was a BBQ available but we went into Matamata for dinner. Host provided clear instructions about access and helpful dinner recommendations.

    This little gem of a place was exactly as described. It has everything you need for a short or long stay. It was quiet and well equipped. The beds were very comfy and we didn't want for anything. It was also located in a great position for us to get to Hobbiton which was our main reason for staying in Matamata

    It’s okay for the money but consider that this place is old so the room is cold if it’s winter and heat pump didn’t work properly. I stayed there one night so it was okay for me and I am aware of low hotel standards in NZ so I didn’t expect much
