Situated in Whakatane, The Com Plex Motel features a bar and free WiFi throughout the property. The motel has family rooms.

Complete with a private bathroom fitted with a shower and free toiletries, all rooms at the motel have a flat-screen TV and air conditioning, and selected rooms also boast a balcony. The rooms will provide guests with a wardrobe and a kettle. We needed a room on the ground floor at short notice as I am currently on crutches, they were so helpful and nice and we got a lovely disabled friendly studio. Everything was new, very clean, large and cosy. I can't thank everyone enough. There is also a good restaurant in the building, which we really enjoyed.
