Esplanade Motels offer modern and spacious accommodation with full kitchen facilities, just 3 minutes’ drive from Gore town centre. Each apartment includes electric blankets, satellite TV and a DVD player. Free WiFi access is provided. Staff were lovely . The accommodation was exceptionally clean and was very well equipped. The bed was very comfortable. We were given a small bottle of milk and biscuits , tea, coffee and hot chocolate. This was just an overnight stay en route to Milford Sound but it was made very enjoyable by the staff.
