Greytown is a small town about an hour north of Wellington. We chose it as our base for a few days because it put us on the opposite side of Wellington Harbour, the perfect place for exploring the south-east corner of the Nueva Zelanda<\/a> North Island. There are not a whole lot of accommodation options here though. We chose Greyfriars Motel<\/a> for two reasons.<\/p>\n If you\u2019ve stayed here as well, either in a garden room, or another room category, I\u2019d love to hear what you thought about it. I\u2019d also like to know what your favourite things to do in the area are. Let me know in the comments after this article!<\/p>\n This article is all our own experience. Our booking was paid for by us, and no part of it was free or subsidised. That said, many of the links below are affiliate links, which means that I get a small commission if you click it and make a booking or purchase. I hope that you\u2019ll use these links anytime you need to book a place to stay or activity! These small commissions help me to keep\u00a0travelling so I can write and film more travel guides for you.\u00a0I would never recommend anything I don\u2019t or would not personally use!<\/em><\/p>\n Our primary reasons for selecting this hotel are that they traded on Bartercard<\/a> and their location. Trading on Bartercard<\/a> was essential for us because it made up a significant portion of our budget for this trip. Greyfriars Motel<\/a> is right in the centre of Greytown, in easy walking distance to a FreshChoice Supermarket as well as some of the town attractions, like Schoc Chocolates<\/a>y Cobblestones Museum<\/a>.<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n More importantly, it’s in easy driving distance from Cape Palliser and Castle Point, two of the hidden gems in this corner of the North Island.\u00a0Greytown is one of only a few places that are fairly central for exploring the south-east coastline of the North Island of Nueva Zelanda<\/a>.<\/p>\n Our secondary reasons for this choice were:<\/p>\n <\/p>\n [the_ad id=”6918″]<\/p>\n <\/p>\n This hotel is extremely well located\u00a0in the heart of Greytown\u00a0and holds a 4-star rating. We spent three nights here while we explored the area and I did some work. Being right in the centre of town, it worked out perfectly for walking to the Fresh Choice supermarket to get food, and it was a pleasant stroll down the street to visit Schoc Chocolates and the Cobblestone Museum. If you’d rather get your food at a restaurant, we noticed many different options within just a couple of blocks.<\/p>\n We booked the Queen Studio, but when we arrived, we received an upgrade to the Garden Studio. These two rooms are the same concerning what is in them. However, the Garden Studio is more spacious and looks over the motel garden whereas the Queen Studio looks over the carpark. It doesn’t seem like much, but it is remarkable how much more inviting it is to sit down and do some work when you are looking over a lush green garden compared to a bitumen car park. Granted, you can still see the car park on the other side of the garden space, but never the less, it made for a lovely spot to both relax and also get some work done.<\/p>\nUna pregunta rapida<\/h3>\n
