A Wonderful place to stay
We have had our first stay at the Black on Grey Motel in Geraldine. It was a lovely detached unit. Amazingly comfortable bed and state of the art armchairs. The unit was spotlessly clean, spacious and had everything we could have wanted.. Angeline was so friendly and very helpful, without being intrusive. It was a real joy to stay there and we will definitely go back. Fabulous stay.

Very nice motel units.
Very clean and very comfortable. A little away from town but everyone has a vehicle. Owners are also fantastic. highly recommended. Would 100% stay here again.

A Fantastic Stay in Gerladine
We (myself, wife and two young kids) spent last Saturday night at Black on Grey Motel, and what a pleasant surprise it was. With the kids, we wanted to break our drive between Wanaka and Christchurch, and Geraldine looked to be about the right distance, although we were a bit sceptical as to what the town had to offer. We couldn’t have been more wrong, what a charming little town and a charming little motel.
The town is a small country town with an old Main Street with some lovely little shops, a cheese factory that made top notch cheese, a nice pub for dinner (the Village Inn) and a fabulous breakfast at The Running Duck.
The cabin at the motel was just great. We were warmly welcomed by the host (whose name escapes me sadly) and we had the spacious family unit. Two nice bedrooms, a lovely sitting area / kitchen and a nice little private courtyard, grassed for the kids to run around. Also loved the little touches such as the little glass bottle of milk in the fridge. It felt safe, secure, and just a two minute drive from the centre of the Main Street.
Both Geraldine and The Black on Grey are well worth the visit, we’re so glad we stopped by.
