I recently stayed at the Diplomat Motel for two nights while attending a function in Merivale and a concert in town. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, and the extra towels were a nice touch. The beds were the most comfortable I've ever slept in, and the rooms were spacious and clean. The outdoor area was lovely, and having a separate kitchen was convenient. The motel's location was great, with excellent early morning coffee shops nearby.
Couldn't recommend this hotel more.

I recently stayed at this luxurious 4-star hotel and had a fantastic experience. The location of the hotel was perfect, as it was close to the city centre and easily accessible by bus. This made it convenient for me to explore the city and visit all the attractions. The hotel also provided excellent service, with room service, dry cleaning, and housekeeping available. The staff were friendly and attentive, ensuring that all my needs were met during my stay.
This hotel would be the perfect choice for families as well, with its range of facilities and services. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a luxurious and comfortable stay in the city.

I had a wonderful stay at Diplomat Motel. The twin room I stayed in was spacious and well-equipped with a double bed and a single bed, as well as dining and lounge furniture. The separate kitchen and bathroom were clean and convenient. The room was meticulously maintained, and the optional room service ensured a high standard of housekeeping throughout my stay. Linda and Paul, the hosts, were incredibly welcoming and made sure that the room was warm and that I was familiar with all the facilities. I particularly enjoyed spending time in the outdoor spa, which was very relaxing. The motel had a warm and family-friendly atmosphere, and I felt right at home. Though the motel doesn't have its own restaurant, they provided discount vouchers for a nearby hotel with a great selection of meals at reasonable prices. There was also a small shopping center within walking distance, which was a nice convenience. Public transport was easily accessible, with a bus stop right outside the motel. Additionally, Linda even went above and beyond by personally giving me a ride to one of my appointments. I had a memorable and comfortable stay at Diplomat Motel and would highly recommend it to others.

I had a great stay at this hotel. the location was perfect - it was so close to everything, including eateries and public transport into the city center. Secondly, the staff provided excellent service and were always friendly and accommodating. Thirdly, the rooms were spacious and had a very comfortable double and single bed, along with cooking facilities. Additionally, the basic amenities were all there, including breakfast. Though not recently renovated like the photos, the hotel still provided value for money.
The only thing that could be improved was the smell from repairs, as mentioned in one of the reviews.
