TOP 10 Hamilton Hotels

Do not stay here unless you plan on having a terrible night’s sleep. This hotel is a nightmare! There is a sign as you enter the room saying “no discos or parties” which is just as well because there is plenty of that going on, on the street below for you to enjoy while trying to get to sleep until 3 or 4 am. The only good thing initially about the hotel is the location however that soon proved to be a negative with the insane amount of noise until super late (music, loud cars, people yelling and an odd humming noise in the ceiling). The room - especially the bathroom is lower quality more like a 2-3 star hotel. I have no idea how this is considered 4 star! The toilet seat was yellowish and well used - not attached well to the toilet and slid around. The shower water pressure is weak and positioned for people who are short. The carpet is well worn and the towels small. There are limited parking spaces which are first come first serve. Terrible customer service. The people at the front desk are unhelpful and did not explain how to get into the hotel after hours leaving me stranded outside until they finally answered the phone and hurriedly provided a code for the door. The lift sounds like it is about to break and was out of order at 1am. This hotel is perfect if you don’t value sleep, quality and friendly customer service. I would prefer to eat a cheese grater than stay here again.

Good location for my business trip, lovely staff, exceptionally clean unit, and a very comfortable bed with good pillows. Reasonably priced, and a good night’s sleep. Good cafes and restaurants close by, very happy with my choice of Albert Court Motor Lodge.

We were in Hamilton for a week on business and stayed at the Stadium Motel, in one of three 2 bedroom duplex apartments located adjacent to the main accommodation wing. Lets start with the positives: Our host was a lovely lady who was very pleasant. The motel is not used for MSD emergency housing and our unit had quite new TV's in both bedrooms and a very large TV in the living area with good picture quality. And now for the negatives: Our apartment was tired, uncared for and worse, it was not clean. Stadium Motel is a very standard type of lodging that was probably built about 20 years ago, and since then has apparently enjoyed little maintenance and no refurbishment. Many of the fixtures and furnishings are stained, dented, broken or just old and tatty. But it was the lack of cleanliness that was most concerning. Crusty food splatters in the microwave and on a dinnerplate, dirty windows and walls, dusty grime covered appliances and surfaces, and curtains hanging off the rails were some of the faults that quite obviously have gone unattended for months or years. Much of this could be easily rectified with a scheduled maintenance and cleaning program, which I did bring to the attention of our lovely host. Stadium Motel may never be the destination for a family vacation or a romantic getaway, but it should be an okay place to stay, which sadly at the moment it's not. Instead it was a rather depressing place to be.

Absolutely one of the best in hospitality, Service, spacious and beautiful rooms. So caring and thoughtful whilst our stay as our Mum was in Waikato Hospital. They really went above and beyond, can't really thank them enough. Maree and Grant are superb hosts and we would refer them to anyone 😊 Thank you for Everything!!! Simon Bel and Boys

This was the most expensive motel we stayed in on our holiday and the worst. We had a one bedroom and a single in the lounge both comfortable. The roller blind in the bedroom did not fit right over the window so bright light from outside came in both sides and there was no curtain on the back door and as it shone straight into the kitchen lounge area the single bed space was very light. The kitchen was very small and all cups etc on a high shelf we had difficulty reaching. The microwave was above the sink at face height so often banged our head as we tried to do dishes. The bathroom shower was great but bathroom extremely small and no where to put anything, toilet shower vanity all in together which is fine but you had to shut the door to even open the shower or get to the toilet was very squashed. Also long black hair on the floor in bathroom and we are both fair! yuk. They had no where comfortable for 2 people to sit and was quite noisy by the road. Says on website about a cafe but we didn't see one and it wasn't mentioned by owner and we were there 2 nights. Overall not a great experience sadly .

Extremely hospitable from start to finish. All staff are top notch. Located on a street that has a steep inclined, this adrenaline junkie wheelchair babe ” Loved It ”. Close to the hospital, with easy access. Less than 150 metres to convenience stores. We loved our room, nice and cosy. My crew and I will always think fondly of Argent, Graeme and his merry band of gorgeous caretakers. NB If you use a mobility aid, wheelchair, crutches please inform them when booking. if you don't own your own portable ramp to travel with, you can hire them in Hamilton

I am a motel cleaner myself and I must admit I did check everywhere out of curiosity and I was not disappointed, everything was spotless, everything you need is in the room except for a microwave and oven but Uber eats is a great option and I feel not as guilty ordering when you don’t have any other choice. I tried to watch the TV which wouldn’t work at first so needed to be reset then once it was working could not get sound with Netflix but had sound with the normal tv channels wasn’t a problem for us as we had devices and the wifi works well, the handle for the shower and bath are connected, normally I’m guessing u can turn them on separately but it wasn’t allowing me to do that, so when I had a shower the bath tap was also running. Very minor things wrong that didn’t affect our time here
