We appreciate all feedback. Our swimming pool was available all Christmas Day. As is standard practice in motel accommodation, guests are given bottled milk upon arrival and look after their own milk requirements thereafter. However we are always only too happy to supply more upon request. As advised on Christmas Eve your room was left stocked double with everything we could possibly think of that you would need, as our staff spent the day with their families. We would have liked the opportunity to address these thing with you.
Plenty of room to catch up with the cuzzies
Pros:
Central and very clean
Cons:
Heater in bathroom and fan
Location:
Very central
Room was very nice, although could have done with a heater and extractor fan in bathroom. Nice hot shower.

Thank you Andrew. We always love having you here!
Has it all
Needed a last minute stay and this worked out well for four adults. A little expensive considering it was pretty basic. Very clean!!

Thank you Elizabeth, it was a pleasure having you all here. Glad our accommodation suited you well. Remember you can always access our best rates and deals direct - always best to check with us first. Hope to see you again soon!
Quite a way from the beach but easy access to shops. The new expressway has certainly changed the area. The motel appeared to have all the facilities you need for a short stay.

Thank you for your feed back. Kapiti Gateway Motel is in Waikanae Village - a 5 min drive from Waikanae Beach. The Village was always charming but is now much quieter without State Highway 1 traffic passing through. At our property guests are certainly enjoying quiet peaceful nights. Thank you again and we look forward to having you back to stay soon.
great hotel close to Mt Smart stadium
My sister and I stayed overnight here when up in Auckland for the Bruce Springsteen concert. Very quiet clean and spacious hotel and very easy to find. 14 mins from Mt Smart.

This is not our property - sorry! While we are definitely quiet clean and spacious, we are neither in Auckland or near Mt Smart Stadium. But we are located 1 hour from Wellington City and Westpac Stadium. Be sure to come stay next time you are down this way!
Very clean and tidy
Everything was very clean and tidy but it is stuck in a time warp of the 70s. It needs modernizing. It is clean and comfortable but it has nothing to make you want to stay again.
Road noise and the trains were a surprise. A very early in the morning one.

Clean, comfortable and quiet
Pros:
The location was simply superb, very central to everything on the Kapiti Coast.
Cons:
Fly screens installed on the windows would bright comfort up to a 5/5. Having the windows open was lovely, but mosquitoes at night was not.
Location:
Walking distance to the beach, day- and over-night tours to Kapiti Island operate from the nearby boat club, very central to Raumati Beach area.
Room was clean when I got there, windows were open, letting in a beautiful salt breeze. The bed was comfortable and well sized, with freshly laundered linens, and extra blankets for if it was cold, as well as an electric blanket on the bed for winter nights. A wall-to-wall desk meant I could charge my devices without having to put them on the floor, and bedside tables were the right height and size for the bed, with working lamps. Bathroom was clean, with separate shower, and very neat. The room was small, but not pokey, and was a very enjoyable environment to spend time in when I wasn't with my family, or on the beach. The staff were friendly and helpful, and very knowledgeable about the local area. Free Wi-Fi was also a fantastic bonus, and the connection was excellent.

Thank you Juliana, we are delighted you enjoyed your stay. Waikanae has bushy hills on one side, and the beach on the other - which is what makes it such a special place. But yes we agree the mosies on a warm night are rather annoying. In our guest information we urge guests keep windows closed at night during summer, use the fan provided, and ask for more fans if required. We are delighted you enjoyed our clean accommodation - we put a huge emphasis on this on a daily basis. We look forward to seeing you again soon.
Nice to have plenty of room
Great people, good facility, close to where I needed to be. Nice to have room for two chairs and a table.

Thank you - we are delighted you found Kapiti Gateway Motel Waikanae comfortable and convenient. We look forward to seeing you again soon.
Great motel close to village
Pros:
Everything
Cons:
A small vegetable knife would be good, but apart from that, nothing.
Location:
Near shops, cinema, supermarkets, and only a short drive to the beach.
I was lucky enough to get a last-minute booking over Easter, and thoroughly enjoyed my stay. Was great to have REAL Sky Tv, not the free-to-air that most motels have. Another bonus was a bath. Everything I needed was in my unit, and I'd definitely make this place my home-away-from-home in Waikanae.
