The location, the staff was very nice, the room itself very pretty and the facilities were clean and all the accessories were there for even a long stay, which we didn't utilise.
Parking right next to the room is also very fun.

Alista went out of his way to clean ok breakfast for us despite we were late for breakfast as it was a late night for us the night before as we travelled from Auckland so we slept in

Queen Elizabeth park is great, there is a train and boat rides and the park itself is huge, on the day we visited there everything was free to go on and there was a mini market so you could buy some food. Then you can go across the road to the pools - indoor and outdoor and that was free also. We liked the compactness of Masterton and its got heaps of shops and heaps of options Makkies, KFC, Subways, PaknSave, Countdown etc. We got Roast meals one night, very yum and way too much. We will be back soon.

For our purposes, QE2 Park and the Swimming complex was excellent. There are plenty of shops to look into and find good deals.
Masterton is well placed to get to activities of all kinds and in different locations.

We based ourselves in Masterton so we could explore the Wairaparapa Region. We went to the Pukaha (Mt Bruce) wildlife reserve, did the Star Safari, visited Aotearoa Stonehenge, went to the Cape Palliser Light House and Seal Colony, visited Ngawi and had a delicious lunch at Lake Ferry Hotel. We also had delicious custard filled cronuts at the Land Girls Cafe in Pirinoa, amazing Fish and Chips at The Lake Ferry Hotel and ate three times at the 10 O'clock Cookie Bakery Cafe in Masterton.

Masterton Park has been excellently developed.
Masterton Park has been excellently developed.
Thr ribbon development is still bad on the southern side.
Masterton is the home of notable schools and we enjoyed the grounds and facilities at Wairarapa College where our large Christian festival was held.

Masterton is beautiful, Mawley Park brilliant accom. Needed to contact Booking.com was unable to make contact. It was frustrating. But the Mawley Park manager more than made up for the booking.com discrepancy. The trip could have easily turned to custard if Les (the manager) didn't help 🤔

We loved Queen Elizabeth Park.
We loved Queen Elizabeth Park. It has great play areas for children and lots of interesting places to stroll. We found an aviary and a swing bridge and there is a lake where you can hire paddle boats (in weekends?) and a little train for rides (weekends?)
We had lunch at Entice Cafe across the road and afternoon tea at Ten O'clock Cookie Bakery. Both were excellent.
Great accommodation with everything we needed. Good wi-fi and Android TV with Netflix. Where this property really stands out is with the incredibly helpful service from Jason and Pam. We have been unexpectedly held up in Masterton for a week due to car issues, but they have gone out of their way to help us with luggage storage and rebooking and late checkouts at short notice as the situation changes on a daily basis. I cannot thank them enough for their friendly and kind hospitality.
It was affordable during Wings over Wairarapa - no huge price hikes like other places - we were so lucky to have been able to go to the show... the staff member also gave us a tip as to where we can get discounts - as we had a gaggle of children with us. I usually stay here when I go to Masterton - there is a playground for the kids and it's close to town and the pools.
There is the odd bunny around the place which works well when it's coming up to Easter for the littlies.
Grand, spacious rooms named after famous NZ racehorses. Very comfortable beds and modern, well-appointed bathrooms. Room was wonderfully quiet and felt very secure. Common areas are currently under renovation and look like they will have an amazing almost country lodge feel. We travel to Masterton regularly to visit family and Gateway probably has the best rooms available in town. Most of the owners(?)/managers/staff were amazingly friendly and helpful.
We had a very comfortable stay and we had everything we needed. The house is lovely and modern and we easily could've stayed there for weeks! The bathroom was a highlight with the wonderful bathtub and we loved being able to relax in the lounge at night and watch the big tv. I would definitely recommend this stay to family and friends and would love to stay again next time we're in Masterton.
The room is absolutely gorgeous. So peaceful and quiet as it's back from the road with a very comfy bed.
Breakfast was amazing and would also recommend the foodie platter, there which was enough for my dinner and leftovers for lunch for my long trip home.
Loved all the little touches that make the room feel homely and less like a motel/hotel room.
Our stay was a dream. The hosts are lovely, very accommodating and friendly whilst remaining discreet and mindful of their guests’ privacy. The house is beautiful and warm. The bed was very comfortable and we slept like babies. Generous portions for a delicious breakfast ideally complemented a perfect stay in Masterton.
Always love coming home to Masterton!
over the years we have had lots of happy whanau get togethers at the Copthorne.
perfect place for celebrations , am looking forward to next reunion in March.!
excellent for families, love love the spa and pool !! staff very polite and helpful .
Brian & Nicky were awesome lovely hosts. Very accommodating and hands-on. The place/room has a relaxed feel and is situated beside the vineyard, The kids had a great time. And just before we left, my wife said to me, "Next time we're back in Masterton, let's stay here again!"
Centrally located and spacious … ideal for travellers needing to be near the hub of Masterton. Not plush but roomy, clean and comfortable. And an actual sharp knife in the kitchen drawer
Impressed with the host who resolved the mix-up with the booking quickly with some creative thinking. This ensured that my group could enjoy our weekend stay in Masterton.
The room was cosy, the bathroom was a decent size and the shower was nice with good pressure. Good location being at the entrance to Masterton coming in.
