Thank you, Lois, for your lovely review. Have a wonderful time travelling down south.
Fantastic accommodation
We were a large group, mainly on road bikes and Paul was brilliant with communication and ensuring the group had what they needed. Beautiful clean rooms. We will most definitely be back next time we come down south.

All we wanted
Heather was super helpful when we found ourselves needing urgent accommodation. We found the rooms very clean and had all we wanted. There were 5 of us in a 2 bdrm appt. We had ample space to chill and do a bit of cooking. Great value , I would come again.

Clean, spacious, warm, comfortable
I appreciate how Paul & Heather looked after me during my short stay, including looking at the NZTA web site to check road conditions on my planned trip back home over the Lewis Pass during a storm.

Leah G11/07/2024Could be the cleanest neatest room in New Zealand. I would believe you if you told me no one else had ever stayed in this room. I’ve never been in a cleaner motel. It is amazingly well appointed. I loved having ground coffee and a filter!!! Even kept the wrapper to buy the brand again. When I arrived ( not having booked ) the owners had a room ready for just in case!!! The lights and heater were on! Lovely in 0 degrees. The room was wonderful. Being able to purchase a frozen meal to eat in the room was superb!!! Just needed wine! I chose the cottage pie and it was easily enough for dinner and breakfast for one.Catherine S17/06/2024Feels like you are the first to use the room ever! This is a fantastic venue. Feels like you are the first to ever use the facilities. Lovely comfortable bed. Room toasty warm because the radiator packs a punch heat wise and can be adjusted to suit your comfort level. Brilliant because you are not kept awake by a heater or heat pump turning on and off next to you. Felt like under floor heating in the bathroom or very well insulated. No cold tile on your feet! Hosts really friendly and genuinely want you to have the best stay.NorthStar6671185149106/06/2024Peaceful Very very comfortable and peaceful.. very clean and tidy spacious rooms and an amazing big bed very comfortable.. when the chance comes again will definitely go for a quiet weekend away 👍.. And a big Thankyou to the owners who made sure we knew where the best pies and dinner was 👍Go2949821100304/06/2024Great place to break your journey. Great place to stay if you want to break your journey, north or south, or stay in the area for a while. The rooms are immaculately clean and spacious, and all of the fittings are superb. Very comfortable bed. The small kitchen is adequate and has a good range of utensils. Would not hesitate to stay here again.annespells25322/05/2024Fantastic and very unexpected Without meaning to sound patronising, accommodation of this standard was the last thing we expected in a small country town. It was definitely the most luxurious motel we stayed in during our two weeks in the South Island. Being so new, everything was clean and fresh, with wonderful beds and a great bathroom. My only negative comment would be that the lounge furniture was not suited to old bones (needed to be higher and with less depth so you didn't need a cushion behind you for support). I would definitely recommend this motel to anyone visiting Murchison.Lynda B20/05/2024Highly recommended We recently did a three week road trip of the South Island, our first since we retired. We stayed in Murchison for three nights. We’d booked a one-bedroom unit at the Grand Suites, after doing some research online. Booking online was very easy and quick. We were very happy when we arrived, it’s a very new, large complex. Carly on the reception desk welcomed us very warmly and was very pleasant to deal with. Our room was lovely, we were really pleased with it. We had a VERY comfortable super king sized bed in the bedroom. The bathroom was very well appointed and quite roomy. The heated floor was lovely!! There were heaters which we did use as the weather was cooling down as winter approaches. All the units are ground floor. Our room (# 23) backed onto the main road (SH6) but the windows were double glazed so we didn’t hear the cars going by. Occasionally you could hear a truck dully, but it didn’t disturb our sleep at all. Parking is right outside each unit, in a large roomy courtyard in the middle of the complex. We would definitely stay here again if we’re in Murchison. Highly recommend this fine establishment. Thank you Carly and the Grand Suites Murchison for a great stay.Barry P20/05/2024Best accomodation in Murch Really well appointed unit with heaps of space, good heating options and thoughtful quality touches It is right within the main street of Murchison as you come in from the Nelson side so an easy stroll or drive for food or groceries. On that topic, the Cow Shed is the pickGaine106/05/2024Spotless and modern motel Friendly staff, modern and clean motel unit provisioned with everything you might expect. The king bed was incredibly comfortable. Although it’s on the main road the double glazing ensured it was very quiet. Great value for money and highly recommended.M Webster25/04/2024Beautiful I totally agree with the other reviews. This place is immaculate. It looks like a new build. The lovely lady on reception offered to upgrade us for which I was very grateful. Had we known it would be sooo nice we would have stayed longer. I wish the other places were up to this standard.Wander3990086446112/04/2024The best in Murchison Stayed here for 1 night in March and one of the nicest motels I have stayed at in a very long time. The rooms very, very spacious and well equipped. Reception was very friendly and helpful. Everything was lovely and clean. Would definitely recommend this motel and wouldn't hesitate to stay there again. By far the best motel in the region.Tripadvisor rating score: 5.0 of 5,
