Celtic Motel is nestled in amongst the sunny Horowhenua township of Foxton, giving it a hint of 'country' and ensuring it is very peaceful and quiet, yet it is conveniently situated just 400m off SH 1. This comfortable Foxton gem in the beautiful lower west coast of the North Island is where friendly hospitality is guaranteed. Super clean and tidy well appointed room with a very comfortable bed. Would definitely stay here again :)

Just 3 minutes from The Square, Drovers Motor Inn offers spacious, self-contained accommodation featuring flat-screen satellite TV and wonderfully comfortable beds, perfect for a relaxing stay. Guests also enjoy free unlimited Wi-Fi and Netflix throughout their visit. Really impressed with the overall experience. Our 1 bedroom apartment was like a home away from home. A good size, well appointed, modern, quiet and exceptionally clean. I would recommend to anyone needing accommodation at that end of town.

Winner of Trip Advisor Certificate of Excellence 2014, Harringtons Motor Lodge offers self-contained ground floor studios and suites with free on-site parking and free WiFi. Some suites have a spa bath. I stayed here for almost three weeks in late 2023 and it was perfect for my needs. This is a very well-run motel. The hosts are professional, friendly, and very responsive to any requests. They obviously care about guest satisfaction and comfort. The room was very clean and quiet. There is a well-equipped kitchenette and a good-sized TV with many channels. The bed was very comfortable and I slept well the entire visit. The location is excellent because it is directly across the road from the Esplanade which is a fantastic urban park with natural bush, formal gardens and lots of walking paths and track, and also (for families) a large playground and wading pool for kids. There's a bus stop right at the gate and it's only a few minutes ride to The Square and the Plaza shopping center. I'm very happy to have chosen Harringtons for my stay and I would not hesitate to stay here again.
