Castletown Motel

Last night, my partner and I were stranded in Foxton due to our own rookie mistake as it was our first time to visit the area. We were on our way to adopt a cat. The owner Peter was extremely kind and offered us a ride to our destination without hesitation. Will definitely stay here the next time we come and will definitely recommend it to anyone and everyone. Thank you so much, kind sir. Truly appreciated.

Very comfortable and clean .great service

Well equipped unit, comfy bed, helpful & pleasant owner esp with travel changes, parking right outside unit. Stayed twice. Great stop-off for ferry trips to avoid Levin & Wgtn prices; good value. Good for solo female travellers - good locks - onr on-site - no hidden corners. Not flash but all essentials.

It's bang on what I would call a cheap and cheerful Motel. Located right on State Highway One in Foxton, the Motel is very easy to spot. Unfortunately being on the Highway means you do have to contend with the Road Noise, including the constant stream of Trucks overnight. Living in the quiet country, I was worried that I wouldn't be able to sleep. However, I really didn't find it too bad. The Owner at Reception was a very friendly, easy going Guy. Pleasure to deal with. Heaps of parking in front of all the units. The room was a pretty standard size, with Bathroom and Kitchenette. It had a Double Bed and a Single Bed. Unfortunately I found the bed to be pretty uncomfortable, being really bouncy and soft. I did manage some sleep though. The Kitchenette was well stocked with Pots, Pans and Utensils. You could definitely Cook for yourself using what was there. Everything was impeccably clean. Not even a stray hair in the bathroom to be found. All the Bedding was clean and fresh. TV had all the Freeview Channels. WiFi is advertised, however I could not pick up any Signal. Just wasn't there. Not a huge problem for me though. Located across the Road from a Dairy and Takeaway Shop, and also from a Bakery/Cafe. The New World Supermarket is located a short walk away. Foxton is brilliantly located only a short drive from Wellington, especially now on the new Motorways/Bypass. It makes a perfect stopping off point for those travelling to/from the Inter-Island Ferry. Very reasonably priced, and I will definitely not hesitate to stay again.
