What others say

In the Sunday Star-Times Steve Braunias lists Te Aroha Motel as the Best Motel in New Zealand for 2008.

Stephen goes on to say, "There is no prettier town in New Zealand than Te Aroha. You, too can experience the miracle of resurrection and eternal life by soaking your bones in the mineral baths; if you can book a tub at evening, then walk softly giddily through the scented domain, down the hill and into your room at the motel, where you shall sleep the sleep of sweet Jesus. Plus they give you a biscuit.
