Reviews for Anndion Lodge, Apartments and Function Centre
Review 1:Really lovely staff. Very nicely laid out little nick nack things everywhere through out the complex. Felt like it was a little tropical get away. Loved it.
Review 2:People outside the room were very loud beteween 10:00 pm and 12:00 am. Perhaps there could be a time restriction (after 10 not allow to be to loud for the consideration of other guests) as it is an awesome place and I'll definitely like to stay there again.
Review 3:Really nice place :)
Review 4:Bed was uncomfortable and room really hot
Review 5:Owners fabulous and very friendly. Heaps of amenities with attention to detail including cotton buds and balls in bathroom, magazines and paper towells in kitchen
Review 6:The staff were very helpful and cheerful. The decore was unusual, but very attractive. The reunion dinner was very good and good value, as were breakfast and dinner served in my suite.
Review 7:My wife took the shower gel , shampoo supplies not realising they were not complimentry which caused them to call me wanting to charge $20 ea , I said I will post them back as one was virtually empty anyway . I don't know anyone who would pay $20 for a full one (265mls) let alone an empty one! You can have your empty container back thanks .
Review 8:This was a nicely decorated unit in a good location for where we wanted to go . Only downside it was basically in a basement with not much outside vision .
Review 9:Shared bathroom facilities - came as a surprise was not shown as that on your web site. Couldn't get TV to work guest book said further information was there but nothing
Review 10:Everything! Having not visited Wanganui before, the town itself was a treat to discover. The recently rennovated accomodation was like a home from home. The cool, dark bedrooms- great for a good night's sleep. A shame we were only planned for 1 night.
Review 11:The owners were very friendly and helpful. I enjoyed the cosiness of the lounge/dining area which was available for all to use. It was a 5 minute car driving into the centre of town.
Review 12:Made booking 10th Aug for stay night of 15th August. Only found out when signing in that restaraunt was closed that night for a private function which meant a trip back to town to get a meal.
Review 13:Friendly people and very willing to help
Review 14:Self contained room with ensuite and river views. Very nice.
Review 15:I accidentally booked a room in the shared area but they offered me a one bedroom room with ensuite for an extra amount
Review 16:TV was way too small what was the point. Need a multi plug. Hard to charge phones etc. Vending machine was out of service no sign. Towel too small and only one, stopped us from trying out the spa.
Review 17:Booking was easy and no fuss. Our room was warm and comfortable. Staff were very friendly.
Review 18:Didn't realise it was comunal spaces. Thought I was booking a unit, so was disappointed about that. The price was ok but I wouldn't have booked a "room" if I'd have realised that was all it was
Review 19:Bathroom needs a heater and bedroom panel heater not sufficient for very cold night.
Review 20:Handy to two river-crossings, friendly and informal hospitality, obliging staff, great shared facilities of all kinds.
Review 21:I didn't like the fact that my stay had come to an end.
Review 22:Very quiet, stylish, comfortable and soooo clean. The staff were very helpful and the apartment was well located.
Review 23:The couch was a bit uncomfortable, red and black theme was a bit depressing and over the top in the unit
Review 24:Bed was very comfortable, staff were lovely, meal was very tasty and home made, fresh .
Review 25:Lack of hot water for showers.No Sky TV.Wanganui seems to be more expensive than other centres for some reason! Booking on line is not advisable as part of property seems to be a backpackers.
Review 26:A bit caiotic when we arrived due to a large party still there.
Review 27:Surrounding pretty, pleasant and relaxing environment. Very clean and tidy and well equipped for our stay
Review 28:We arrived late in the evening after a long drive from Christchurch and from the moment we walked into the reception we felt great about our decision to stay here. We got a wonderful welcome from Dion and a couple of cold complimentary drinks to help us unwind. This was our fist time in Wanganui and because we were relocating here it was very important for us to stay somewhere comfortable and stress free and this is exactly what we got. We booked the pool side apartment for one week which was perfect. It was very clean and spacious, had all the facilities we needed and gave us a sense of privacy too. The whole lodge has a great feel to it, cosy lush and kind of tropical and in the evening time when we were sitting in the courtyard having a drink it felt a little like we were back travelling in Asia :) Ann and Dion (the owners) are friendly, helpful and fun but it's fair to say that all the staff we met were just the same, always smiling and chatty. We will without hesitation recommend Anndion Lodge to family and friends when they come to Wanganui. Thanks for a great stay and a perfect welcome to Wanganui, Brian & Katie.
Review 29:A bit noisy, but otherwise wonderful.
Review 30:Very nice facility w lots of conviences for travelers, kitchen and lounge available to all, large screen TV and wifi also.
Review 31:Had a fight with the TV set, difficult to use.
Review 32:Made to feel at home in a lovely old fashioned room that felt modern and fresh. Although there were plenty of people about, and a function downstairs, it wasn't too noisy & I always felt very safe and comfortable.
Review 33:Got a 9m2 room with 4 beds (the emergency exit also leeds through my room). Forgotten former guests old socks outside the room at the window ...
Review 34:cheap stay if you just pass by this region.
Review 35:BBQ was filthy, no air conditioning in rooms, no sky tv in room. Noise from cars and trucks in Lakeview rooms absolutely unbearable. Male on duty at front desk has no people skills & should not be in the hospitality industry.
Review 36:Jacuzzi,barbecue area could be awesome.
Review 37:Lodge accommodation is back packer, shared bath room toilet facilities, transferred to motel accommodation for extra $50 room was very small, cramped and noisy from road traffic
Review 38:Not much
Review 39:Road very noisy and noise from people walking upstairs while in the COVE. The cove had little air and stuffy to sleep.No fan to use in hot weather.
Review 40:the set out of motel and grounds wonderful Having pool and spa so nice
Review 41:We did not know it did not have a toilet in the room….it was not stated…just you can share the facilities…so that was a surprise, but in the long run worked out fine.
Review 42:The kitchen was fitted out well and clean. The small touches like tissue in bedroom.
Review 43:I am a big person and found the bed a little too small for a comfortable nights sleep for my partner and I and the room size was small making it a little claustrophobic.
Review 44:Our overall impression was of a welcoming, clean, tidy, well appointed lodge.
Review 45:My room was too small but that was my fault because I left my booking too late and had to share it with my sister. We should have had our own rooms or a bigger one. Next time Ill book earlier....yes, I will certainly go back there.
Review 46:I liked the homeliness of the lodge. It was just like being in my own home amongst visitors. The location along the Whanganui river provided tranquility to this little hideaway. And thanks to Dion for taking the time in his busy schedule to stop and have chats with us.
Review 47:There was no sink in the room to do the dishes etc. even though there was cooking facilities. Most Unusual! Had to take our dishes to the main kitchen in a plastic bucket.. I think this should have been mentioned on the booking site .. Also room was very dark and cave like.
Review 48:Having the swimming pool was good as there are not many motels with pools in Wanganui.
Review 49:Nothing everything perfect
Review 50:The owners are amazing! I liked everything about our stay there. Would have loved to stay longer. If you book an accomodation in Whanganui THIS is the best choice!
Review 51:Good location close to the city centre. The lodge was very comfy, clean and nicely decorated to make you feel like at home. Well-equipped kitchen and nice bathroom with a spacy shower area. You can enjoy the private pool and BBQ. Free parking and free Wifi are available. The owners are very welcoming and super friendly. We got some nice tips! Thank you for the great stay!

Review 57:We found on this visit the room to be very small and quite expensive for what is was. Otherwise very happy with the visit overall.
Review 58:I have stayed there before and really enjoyed the room and location. Dion has been very pleasant each time we have visited. Both times the rooms have been very clean and presented well.
Review 59:being a little below ground and no big windows to look out of. We only looked into the garage. No sink, although microwave & plenty of cuttery and crockery. Having to walk from one bedroom, through another bedroom to get anywhere eg bathroom, kitchen.
Review 60:comfortable and plenty of room. Having a restaurant, gift shop, pool, spa, BBQ area etc. Having the use of a garage was very good.
Review 61:Heating in the unit was only just adequate.There was a single-glazed conservatory, only separated from the main room by heavy curtains. The exterior door was also the fire escape, but was locked for security. Not good if there was an emergency.
Review 62:We were made very welcome, we were attending a function which was to be held in the same motel, so it was very convenient. The motel was quiet and the unit was thoroughly serviced.
Review 63:Showers were a bit small. Seating in lounge a bit worn.
Review 64:Great location and views of the river. The most comfortable bed I have ever slept in. Very warm and cosy. Quiet. Great facilities.
Review 65:Thin walls and doors, TV was not tuned in, bed was definitely not up to standard.I asked for a double bed but the bed was two singles pushed together. The springs were soft on the bed that I slept on and I ended up rolling into the 'middle' ( which was really the edge of my bed) continuously. Bit annoying.
Review 66:Nice new decor, tidy and pleasant facilities. Electric blanket on the bed. Quiet location.
Review 67:I was looking forward to a soak in the spa pool, unsure if it was up and running, plus had a hard time falling asleep, the noise coming from the kitchen area, or maybe the facilities was very noisy.
Review 68:I loved the fact that the proprietor came out and spent time with us, made our stay that much more enjoyable. The atmosphere was awesome, dining exquisite, you ladies are exceptional! I just liked how convenient everything was and if i needed anything it was right there! Thanks Dion and staff, we will be back.
