Te Awa Suites

Pragma Hospitality Group has opened Te Awa Suites in Hamilton, restoring one of the city's most recognisable accommodation properties.

Hamilton-based Pragma Hospitality Group has officially opened Te Awa Suites, a fully transformed apartment-style property at 272 Ulster Street, Hamilton. 

The launch marks a significant investment in one of Hamilton's most established accommodation corridors, restoring a well-known site on the city's motel mile to a standard that reflects the growth and ambition of modern Hamilton. 

Te Awa Suites has been completely redeveloped, delivering 21 premium studio, one, two and three-bedroom apartments (including two accessible rooms) designed for families, groups, and extended-stay business travellers. Rooms feature a kitchenette, dining area, work desk, washer and dryer, coffee machine and smart TVs with Netflix and YouTube streaming. Free unlimited WiFi and secure on-site parking are included, and a continental breakfast can be arranged for in-room delivery.

Sanjil Mistry, Managing Director at Pragma Property Group, said the opening of Te Awa Suites represents Pragma’s commitment to raising the quality of Hamilton’s accommodation offering.

“We’re proud to bring a prominent Ulster Street site back to its best and contribute to the ongoing revitalisation of the city’s motel corridor. Our investment in Te Awa Suites has not only created jobs and added to Hamilton’s local visitor economy but signals the beginning of our broader ambition to lift the standard of motel accommodation across the city,” said Mistry.  

Te Awa Suites follows Pragma Hospitality’s launch of the Hamilton Motel in October 2025, located next to FMG Stadium Waikato. The group now operates two properties in the city, with plans for a further four openings across New Zealand in the coming years, spanning both redevelopments and new builds. 

Located approximately 25 minutes’ drive from Hamilton Airport, a 10-minute walk from FMG Stadium Waikato and within easy reach of Hamilton's city centre, restaurants and shopping, Te Awa Suites is positioned to serve both leisure visitors and corporate travellers who need the space and self-sufficiency of a well-appointed property.
