Captain Cook Motor Lodge 4 stars

Gisborne

Captain Cook Motor Lodge offers modern ground-floor studios and apartments with free Wi-Fi access. Free on-site parking is available. All rooms offer a TV with over 50 cable channels.

The motel is a 10-minute walk from Gisborne City Centre and a 5-minute drive from Poverty Bay Golf Club. It is within a 10-minute drive of Gisborne Airport, Titirangi Domain and a 5 minute walk to Waikanae Beach, a popular surfing destination. I received a free room upgrade upon check-in which I really appreciated. The new room was very spacious and super convenient; I especially liked the big desk I could use for some computer work. For me as a surfer it was also great to have a little backyard/garden area so I could hang up my wetsuits. The kitchenette was well equipped and spacious as well. Laundry facilities are available for guests to use 24/7 free of charge; you can watch movies à gogo with the Sky channels, and the wifi is fast and reliable. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. I was sad to leave after three nights and will definitely be back.
