Masonic Hotel, hotel in Palmerston North

Situated in Palmerston North and with Palmerston North Convention Centre reachable within 500 metres, Masonic Hotel features a bar, allergy-free rooms, free WiFi throughout the property and a casino.

The room was absolutely prestine. The carpet passed the smell test😀. I often find that carpets are a big let down in many hotels, but I was very pressed. The room was fresh, it smelled of 'nothing', just the way I like it.

Whitehorse Inn, hotel in Palmerston North

Located in Palmerston North, 6.1 km from Arena Manawatu, Whitehorse Inn provides accommodation with a shared lounge, free private parking, a restaurant and a bar.

We only stayed one night, as came to Palmy for a family do and were expecting to get to the inn to sleep after midnight. We checked in at around 4pm to get the keys. The staff were friendly and helpful. The premises, even though dated, were clean and tidy. The room was also very tidy. It looked like the carpet was replaced not long ago, and the room did not have that dated smell as you would expect of an old place. The sink in the room was quite handy. The communal kitchen was also very clean. It felt like a place very well looked after.

    Palmerston North is not a place I'd generally choose to go.

    Palmerston North is not a place I'd generally choose to go. But I came for a show for the night at the Regent. Fantastic show. I was also pleasantly surprised by local cafe Joe's Garage. Excellent coffee and food. Walking distance everywhere, great Asian restaurants too.

    The shopping is Fantastic especially Kmart and the Plaza, and also the OPP Shops. LOL I walked around a bit more this time and discovered some great shops which we don't have in Wanganui where I live. I mainly went for a Buddhist Retreat but extended my stay to do some great shopping. Favorite shops, Kmart, Salvation Army Shop, St Vinnies Opp shop and St John Opp shop. Food shops Ocggi Sushi at the Plaza mall, Noodles N Dumplings, McDonalds at the Plaza. I also shopped at Downtown Souvenirs and Gifts, Whitcoulls the Plaza, Aquisition's, Hello Banana, Inspire me and a few other shops. I had to use taxis because I have a mobility problem, but they were cheap because I used my mobility card for a great discount. I don't think I would avoid anything;

    The motel was easy to find, very clean and had a very comfortable bed. The staff were very nice. It was very reasonably priced. It has limited kitchen facilities, but is fine to make yourself a simple breakfast.

    Kmart open until midnight - crazy!.

    Kmart open until midnight - crazy!. The park in the centre of city is beautiful and big. There is lots of completely different features including massive deck chairs that can sit an entire family or plenty of spaces for picnics. Short walking distance to every place you would want to go, free parking if you are willing to walk a couple of blocks to get to the malls/plaza. Food is AMAZING, especially the Korean restaurant we went to, and the bubble tea in plaza is yummy - they have fruit balls if you don't like tapioca like us. Plenty of shopping, only wish some of the stores stayed open a bit later, so much to do, so little time.

    Palmerston North has pretty countryside surroundings and lovely wide streets but the town square is very tricky to navigate and gets busy but that's where the shops are mostly. Very little to do there for apart from walks, gardens and cafes. That's all the brochures offered. We went op shopping which was really good. Too many fast food eateries but very few good restaurants. We went to the turkish cafe, really good. We went up the Wind farm to view the turbines, no where to stop and take decent photos!! And everyone drives too fast up there. No activities in town for indoor wet weather entertainment. I've travelled all around NZ and found this town pretty boring in comparison.. We were there for a tournament, luckily we were at that venue mostly (Heads up to Hockey Manawatu). Only ate out once for dinner. ! So many missed opportunities!!

    Check google maps, once you work out the way the main streets are laid out it is easy to navigate. Shopping experience along with ample restuarants. The countryside around Palmerston North is well worth a look as are nearby cities about 1 hour or so away like Napier or Wanganui.

    My partner and I were attending a festival in Palmerston North and weren't able to check in until later in the evening as our room wasn't going to be ready which wasn't an issue, but the staff were super lovely and actually had our room ready by the time we got there! the place was very tidy and the staff were very welcoming. Would defiantly stay again and recommend to family and friends.

    I stay here whenever I am in Palmerston North. Nice hotel, lovely staff. Gates close at 9pm (guests have code to come and go though) as there is alot of car thefts in Palmy(incl my sisters car recently from outside her house down a big long private drive) so would recommend staying here if you have a car for the extra protection of your vehicle!

    We have stayed at Braemar twice now. We visit often with family whom live just around the corner so for us the location is perfect. Lots of hot water, great showers, Was nice having a netflix option on the TV. Very quiet. Will stay here all the time when we visit Palmerston North.

    Self contained unit, great for a small family or friends group...especially if you were keen to prepare meals. Towels were nice and soft. Easy self check in, details sent by text shortly before the check in time. Brent was quick to act when we had no milk in our fridge, thank you.

    I like the ease of booking, the location, the charge rate, and the free parking. Intend to stay at Alpha again in the future. The Alpha Motel meets my need for modestly priced, clean and quiet accommodation when in Palmerston North.

    I had the rooms next doors stereo crank up at midnight and I kindly asked reception to have a chat, we were in a family room with two small kids and I didn't want them to wake. They sorted that for us.

    Harringtons is a little further out of the main city centre than the other motels along Fitzherbert Avenue. A quick trip in a car isn't a problem though.
