Review by hotel critic
During my recent business trip, I found an unexpected gem at the Riverstone Motel in Rangiora. From the moment we arrived, Charlotte and Mike's warm welcome and exceptional communication put us at ease, a boon after our long journey. The air-conditioned room was a haven of comfort, boasting premium bedding and thoughtful touches, including a well-equipped kitchenette-perfect for unwinding after a tiring day. Its location on Coldstream Road was an added advantage; we had easy access to popular sporting facilities and the lovely Dudley Park Aquatic Centre. The nearby country pub also made it convenient for delicious meals without straying far from our cozy base. This place is not just an accommodation; it's a welcoming retreat ideal for business travelers and adventurers like myself. I'm already planning my return next year!
