Welcome

 

Lynda, your host, would like to wish you a warm welcome to North End Motel, Huntly. Built by my family in 1974 and managed by me since 1997, I am passionate about ensuring my guests enjoy their stay here as much as I do.

Only motel between Hamilton and Auckland (SH 1), we are located 4km north of Huntly town centre on the banks of the Waikato River. 

14 fully self-contained, clean and comfortable units (12 ground-floor), comprising studio, large studio, 1-bedroom and 2-bedroom family units which have all been refurbished. 3 units have shower over bath,

1 unit (studio with queen bed) has access facilities, all units are ensuite and have kitchens with cooking facilities. 32-42" flatscreen tv's, DVD Players (free DVD's available), Wireless internet, large outdoor swimming pool with BBQ for guests' use, games room with pool table, TV and fridge, guest laundry and children's playground with 14ft trampoline also available.

Only 5 mins to Huntly Placemakers Speedway - "Best Club Promoted Speedway of the Year 2009" and 15 mins to the brand new Hampton Downs Motorsport Park and Meremere Dragway, North End Motel is also the perfect stopover for all the "petrolheads" out there.

Huntly also boasts a multi million dollar heated swimming pool complex with fitness gymnasium open all year round which is located next to a large domain with a skateboarding bowl, childrens playground, soccer and yacht clubs and leads onto Lake Hakanoa.

 

Located 60 mins from Auckland Airport and 45 mins from Hamilton Airport and Mystery Creek, North End Motel is an ideal stopover place for your first night in the Waikato or NZ.

Huntly is a coal mining town with a population of approximately 7000.  It is probably best known for its Power Station - the largest power station in the Southern Hemisphere. You can visit the Huntly Coalfields museum to learn more about the history of mining in Huntly.  There are several lakes and walkways nearby for those who like to get back to nature including Lake Hakanoa Walkway which is very flat and scenic and takes approximately 45 minutes, you could hike the Hakarimatas or walk around Weavers Lake which takes approximately 60 minutes.  Both Hakanoa Lake and Weavers Lake are also excellent for most watersports and fishing.  Other attractions nearby include Candyland, where children can make their own candy (approx 15 mins away), Waingaro Hot Springs (approx 45 mins away) and the Bush Tramway Steam train in Pukemiro which runs once a month on a Sunday (approx 20 mins away).

May I  take this opportunity to say that my wife and I enjoyed our stay at your motel.  We were very comfortable and we enjoyed your place.  And the lady who served us was very polite, kind and courteous.  We appreciated the excellent service she gave us
