Where to eat and stay in Motueka
43 cafés, restaurants, bars, hotels and motels in Motueka, Tasman — compiled from open data and public registers. Free to search, and no venue pays to appear.
We hold 43 venues in Motueka — 30 places to eat and 13 to stay. That makes it the 2nd-largest of the 51 towns and suburbs we cover in Tasman, carrying 14% of the region's venues.
Of the places to eat, 33% are cafés against a national figure of 28%. Motueka is 5 points more café-heavy than the country as a whole, which usually points to daytime and weekend trade rather than an evening dining scene. The full split is 10 cafés, 10 restaurants, 9 takeaways and 1 pubs.
17 of the 30 eating places carry a cuisine tag. The most common are chicken (3), fish and chips (3) and indian (2). Relative to the rest of the country Motueka is unusually strong on chicken and fish and chips — those appear here at a higher rate than the national average.
On the practical detail: 8 publish opening hours (19%), 1 are recorded as step-free, 6 have outdoor seating and 3 flag vegetarian options. That is about the national average of 23%.
For a bed, Motueka runs to 13 listings — 2 hotels, 4 motels, 2 b&bs and guest houses, 3 hostels and 2 holiday parks and campgrounds. Motels dominate, at 31% of the town's accommodation. Accommodation is 30% of everything mapped here, well above the 25% national share — the signature of a place that hosts more visitors than it has residents.
Places of a similar size — Tokoroa (43), Levin (43), Raglan (42) and Highland Park (42) — average 19% accommodation. Motueka runs at 30%, noticeably more, which is what a place that takes in visitors looks like.
All of this is derived from open data rather than collected from listings sites: OpenStreetMap for the venues, public registers for verification. 3 of the 43 venues in Motueka carry at least six recorded attributes and so have a page of their own; the rest are listed here, because a page with only a name and a map pin on it would be worth nobody's time. A blank field means unrecorded, not absent. Nothing here is scraped from a commercial directory, no venue has paid to appear, and we publish no ratings or reviews of our own.
