There are two beds in one room and one living room, which will not affect your sleep. There is a coffee shop when you turn left when you go out. The breakfast is great.

Quiet even though on main road, and still close enough to the cbd. Great swimming pool, the photos don’t do it justice. Warm and deep. Easy checkin/out , very friendly. Rooms are large, well appointed and clean. Was glad for the air conditioning, as it was very hot during the stay. A few cafes/restaurants nearby, but a few blocks walk.

Great motel, very clean and spacious. Awesome pool for the kids. Easy to get to nearby beaches etc but a nice respite from the hustle and bustle

This is my second stay at the Academy Motor Inn. Both times I have been so impressed with the wonderful welcome from Simon and Caroline, and the cleanliness of the rooms, which have also had a refresh since my last stay. The bed is super comfy, the shower has great pressure and there's everything I need to enjoy my stay. A handy location close to supermarket. Would definitely recommend to other travellers and I'm sure I'll be back again.

Thank you for such a great stay! I have been traveling a lot for work lately and this was the cleanest accommodation I have been in so far, beautiful! Rooms were beautifully presented, bed comfy and the pillows were lovely. I can't fault anything. Simon was friendly and full of helpful recommendations. I'll be back for sure

Great value motel - clean rooms, great staff, comfy beds, what more can you ask for. I only stayed a night but will definitely return next time I am in Tauranga. Possibly the only flaw is having someone else’s Ute backed right up to your window as the parking spaces don’t correlate with the units, but you close the curtains and it’s gone

I highly recommend this accommodation if you are staying in Tauranga. The rooms are clean, modern and very comfortable. Great choice of pillows, comfortable beds and sofa, Sky TV in both bedroom and lounge. Air conditioning in the bedroom and fan in the lounge a must for summer. In addition to the great facilities the owner was absolutely lovely. We'd been having a difficult day when we stopped to see if they had availability, the owner could not have been more patient, reassuring and accommodating.

This place is amazing. The units are newly renovated, VERY clean and VERY functional! All the cooking facilities you need, even a coffee maker and milk frother. The beds are comfy, the AC unit works a treat, the couch and chair nice and soft, and the hosts! Theyre so friendly and amazing. I loved my stay here and when back in Tauranga I will most definitely be staying here again. There is roadworks right outside and couldnt hear anything once inside. Its literally 2 minutes from the hospital, even with heavy traffic and alot of roadworks. Just an absolute pleasure staying here. P.S. To the hotel hosts and staff..i was meant to leave a note before we left as we left before the office opened. But thank you so much for making what is usually a very hectic time for us a real breeze. We felt very comfortable and looked after. I wish all the best things for you guys! Thanks again.
