When I called them yesterday, their first answer was that there were no rooms.
But if you persist and say that you want to book one of the rooms that have been blocked out for the NZNOG conference then they put you through to the one person that knows about them. The reference number didn't do me much good. When I called yesterday there were rooms still available in both classes.

And some are booked at http://www.airportpalmsmotelchch.co.nz/ as well. Mention NZNOG on the enquiry form, am pretty sure they will still have rooms.
In case it is of help to others, my notes from "nearby" motels (walking distance if you don't mind walking, some of the ones further down the list are a pretty decent hike and/or seemed to have "booked out" issues, so YMMV). I booked at the Airport Palms, and as of earlier this morning it sounded as though they still had at least one more option for the Wed/Thu nights I wanted (ie, in addition to the one I booked). *snip*
