This charming town offers great value for money with its beautiful gardens, welcoming locals, and opportunities for relaxation in natural parks. You might also consider indulging in activities such as golf, swimming, and spa treatments, all while enjoying the stunning nature that surrounds Motueka.
  2. Look for last-minute deals on Hotels.com: To discover last-minute deals to Motueka, you may want to visit the DealsOpens in a new window or Last-Minute Deals sections on Hotels.com, where you could find discounted accommodation rates as your travel date approaches. Enabling email alerts or push notifications can keep you informed about flash sales and special promotions, helping you save on your stay. Additionally, the Smart Shopping tool available via the app allows you to compare hotel prices and amenities, so you’re more likely to find the best options. With these tools, you could be among the first to know about price drops or available rooms for a spontaneous getaway.
  3. Be flexible with dates: Prices can fluctuate depending on factors like the hotel's location, star rating, and the time of year, so being flexible with your travel dates might help you save on your stay in a Motueka hotel. For those in search of something special, boutique hotels can provide a more personalised experience and may offer better value. When you book with Hotels.com, we’ll inform you if the price for your chosen dates is above or below the average.

  4. Consider your location: Staying closer to key attractions or city centres can offer convenience, but it often comes with a higher price tag. For more affordable options, you might want to consider hotels in less central areas or neighbourhoods, striking a balance between cost and ease of access to your planned destinations. You could also look into independent hotels a bit further out, which are usually more likely to be affordable and can provide a more authentic experience.
