Great location! Beds were comfy. Staff welcoming on arrival

Tracey New Zealand

no problems, location excellent, local knowledge and information very helpful and pet friendly

Les New Zealand

all of the above...a nice welcome which makes all the difference and trust in the way we could leave our car there to go to the cafe in the morning

Taylor New Zealand

Location was epic. Host was really nice. The pizza place around the corner was epic. We were offered a late checkout which was really nice as well, it gave us a good chance to explore the area. The owner also had the heat pump on for us before we arrived which was great because it was a cold day.

James New Zealand

Early check in and late checkout. So close to town

Lucie New Zealand

Very cosy, nice to have electric blankets and offered fresh milk

Melissa New Zealand

Local excellent! A very short walk to get a good coffee and the shops

Jenny New Zealand

The staff were friendly, helpful and went out of the way to make my stay memorable. I’d recommend Greyfriars to everyone. Well done team.

Barbara New Zealand

the location was perfect, very clean and tidy, for a couple of nights away it suited us.

Darryl New Zealand

This motel in beautiful Greytown is a pearl. It was one of the best motels we ever stayed in. The room was in great shape and had everything we needed, even a small kitchen. We stayed in a large studio which was a huge room with a seating area and an extra kitchen table. Everything was clean and tidy. The bed were very comfy and we had an aircon unit which we used for heating during the cool evenings. Even the bathroom had a wall heater which was very nice during our shower in the morning. Really a great stay!
