St Johns Court Motel

This motel is a small town gem. It was very reasonably priced. We would highly recommend this motel. It even has all the sky channels we usually watch at home! The host at reception was very helpful answering my questions. St John's Motel has a comprehensive website with links to the local area. Check it out! Thanks for the glass bottle of milk! The unit was clean, warm and comfortable. The units are all very accessible downstairs units, which we appreciated with a shower cabinet to walk into. The water did not end all over the floor like some motel showers! This was also appreciated. We dined at the "Kink in the Road" restaurant within walking distance. This was a perfect place to dine. The food was tasty, the portions were generous and it was not too expensive.

I love the small town of Milton and the St. John’s Court Motel. The town is small, with warm friendly greetings. We were able to walk to the motel from the Intercity Bus stop. The two bedroom accommodation was cozy and beyond what we expected in terms of space and kitchen facilities. The owners, Eion and Bev, were fantastic hosts. When we could not find a driver to get us to our tourist sites, they graciously offered to drive us for a small cost to us. It was a perfect day, with a personal touch. I hope to return, using the motel as a base camp, as I further explore the area. They were in the process of building a bike storage area, with an e-charger, making touring on electric bikes easier.

Great stop on my way to The Catlins and home again. Lovely people running the place just wish the dog wasn’t always present coz not everyone likes them. Will stay again sometime in the future. ☺️☺️

Absolutely best sevice&accommodation have came across nothing negative

Milton stretches a long distance along Hwy 1. There is no central CBD and the motel has only a supermarket and takeaway near to hand However for an overnight stop this has to be rated top class.

Competed the 88km ride from miller’s flat. The motel is in great location to everything that u would need for a stay. I fully recommend to one and all. Will stay again.

First time we had stayed in a Motel and of this was anything to go by I would do it more often. It looked good in the photos, in reality it was even better. Both rooms we booked were so big and very very clean. It was lovely that we were given a fresh bottle of New Zealand milk. We needed to do some washing and had waited until after our meal. We decided to go for a walk whilst it was washing and had turned off the lights in the laundry room. Wgen we got back it was locked, we went to the office to see if we could get said washing, not only did he come and unlock it he went and got his airer so that we could dry the washing over night rather than us having to sit up whilst it went in the drier. Next morning he gave us lots of tips on where to go on our drive back to Christchurch. He was the most genuinely nice guy you could meet

One of the rooms was supposed to have had 2 single beds and didn't and we had to get the stretcher bed ourselves as they didn't have one made up. One of our family members forgot a bag and the person at the reception was extremely rude when my husband went to pick it up.

The room was 2 meters away from a main hwy. Trucks all night, bed was old and hard. Room was clean. The front unit 5 needs AC so when its hot you dont have to leave widows open and be keeped awake with road noise.
