This motel is centrally located being just a block back from the water making it only a minute walk from all the restaurants. The accommodation was on an excellent standard and the owners were very friendly. I would highly recommend this motel.

We stayed for one night in a two-bedroom unit and found it to be immaculate throughout. Our English host and Kiwi hostess were welcoming and helpful. We have previously stayed in Les Troupes but this was definitely a cut above. The only drawback that we could see was the lack of a balcony/sitting area to gather for a glass of... More

Stayed for three nights and it was ok but nothing to write home about. Clean and reasonably spacious rooms but expensive for what you got compared to most other places we stayed in NZ. Having to use communal laundry to iron something is a pain (no charge though I hasten to add) and woken each morning by another guest talking... More

Not much of a property really. The rooms were spacious and comfortable, but that was about as far as it went. The decor was basic bland, and the lack of mechanical ventilation or A/C was a big negative. Another disappointment was the $8 charge for the laundry, which was offered complimentary in similar properties. The saving grace was Akaroa itself... More

This motel was in a good location, was very clean and spacious. The bathroom was special with a corner bath for two, unfortunately we didn't have time for this but the shower was good. The accommodation had everything we needed. Even though there was no a/c there was a fan and it was very hot the 1st evening of our... More

The motel claims to offer "luxury accommodation", whereby the term "luxury" is relative. For me, "luxury" has to include A/C, even if you don´t need it, and the furniture and decor must be in pristine condition, which it isn´t (any more) at the TRESORI. We stayed here for three nights; one in unit 8, a one-bedroom unit, and two in... More

For the $185.00 per night we paid when quoted $180.00 we expected a bit more. Firstly the things it didn't have 1. Aircon or an adequate fan which is essential when hot 2. An iron and ironing board which is essential when you want to touch up your clothes to attend a wedding (did have a single iron which we... More

Good points: cleanliness, close to waterfront and shops, parking, updated decor. But Akaroa's so brilliant that the accommodation is just one aspect of an otherwise fabulous place to visit. Bad points: price - not good value for what we got, bed (hard, two singles pushed together, not a king - very uncomfortable), few TV channels, disinterested staff who smelled like... More

The motel is a bit overpriced in my Opinion, given that Internet is not included and that it was further from the bay than its competitors. But that's also a good thing. It's quiet, and the rooms are very clean. At first, service was good! We arrived there late-ish on a weekday evening and right away reception pointed us in... More

The rooms open onto the carpark with sliding doors, therefore neither very private not quiet. The staff were not as friendly or helpful as we've come to expect in New Zealand. However, the location was convenient to the waterfront and to the rest of the town.
