Quality and Value in Whangarei’s Heart
There’s something refreshing about finding accommodation that delivers genuine quality without the premium price tag, and that’s exactly what Kensington Motel offers. Tucked in the heart of Whangarei, this recently renovated motel proves you don’t have to compromise on comfort or cleanliness to find excellent value. It’s the kind of place where smart travellers discover they can spend less on accommodation and more on experiencing everything Northland has to offer.
The location places you right where you need to be. You’re within easy reach of Kensington Stadium, Kensington Hospital, and Whangarei Turf, while the scenic Mair Park walkway is nearby for those morning strolls or evening wanders through native bush. The Town Basin Marina and the spectacular Whangarei Falls are both easily accessible, and when hunger strikes, you’ll find a tempting array of cafes, restaurants, and takeaway options just a short stroll from your door.
Each of the thirteen spacious ground-floor units has been thoughtfully renovated to provide comfortable, modern accommodation. Daily servicing ensures your room stays fresh and clean throughout your stay, while complimentary WiFi keeps you connected. The convenient on-site parking means you can pull up right outside your unit, with additional street parking available behind the motel for trucks and larger vehicles – particularly handy for tradies or those travelling with boats or equipment.
During the warmer months from October through March, the outdoor pool becomes the perfect spot to cool off and relax after a day exploring the region. It’s these thoughtful touches that make a stay feel less like just a place to sleep and more like a genuine retreat.
The friendly staff understand that excellent hospitality doesn’t need to be complicated – it’s about clean, comfortable rooms, helpful service, and making guests feel welcome. Whether you’re a solo traveller, a couple, a family, or part of a larger group, Kensington Motel offers that winning combination of quality, convenience, and genuine value that keeps guests returning time and again.
