Rooms and Amenities
AAA Thames Court Motel offers 10 ground-floor apartments with queen and single beds. Each heated studio or apartment includes a well-equipped kitchenette, dining table, ironing facilities, satellite TV with Sky Sports and Movies Premiere channels, and a hairdryer. Some units have electric blankets and double-glazed windows that keep road noise low. Superior Studio Apartments and Two-Bedroom Apartments are available, all with private parking outside the door.
Dining Options
Western breakfast can be served in your room for an extra charge. Each apartment has a kitchenette with utensils, a microwave, and a kettle, so you can prepare your own meals. Takeaways are available across the road, and the town centre-with restaurants like Tony's Pizza and The Coffee Bean-is a 5-minute walk away. The motel also provides tea, plunger coffee, and a small bag of sweets upon arrival.
On-Site Activities
The motel has a garden and a children's playground. Guestrooms feature Sky TV with sports and movie channels. Laundry facilities are available daily from 1 PM to 7 PM at a small cost. Daily newspapers are offered in the lobby. For exploring outdoors, the Oamaru Blue Penguin Colony and Moeraki Boulders are short drives away.
Location and Access
AAA Thames Court Motel is a 5-minute walk from Oamaru's town centre and restaurants. It is a 15-minute drive from Oamaru Airport and 1.5 hours from Dunedin. The motel sits on the main highway but double-glazing keeps rooms quiet. Nearby attractions include the Oamaru Historic Precinct, Steampunk HQ, and a supermarket within walking distance.
Hotel Services
Services include free secure off-street parking, free Wi-Fi in all rooms and public areas, and a self-service laundry. The front desk provides maps, dining suggestions, and after-hours key collection. Corporate rates are available for business travelers. The motel also offers a children's playground and family-friendly two-bedroom apartments.
“I found the beds here to be remarkably comfortable, contributing to a restful stay, and the water pressure in the showers was notably strong. The spaciousness of the units, coupled with well-equipped kitchens and modern facilities, really stood out during my exploration. It strikes me as a solid choice, offering good value and a convenient base.”
