We spent only one night. The balcony view is lovely. We couldn’t use it because it rained. The bed is very comfortable. The hotel is close to some shops and restaurants along the wharf. We had a B+B package, so a portion of the breakfast was free.

Couldn't fault this place. Fast and friendly check in, plentiful undercover parking, clean and spacious room with an amazing bathroom, great location and the free washing machine facilities were a bonus. Lovely village location away from the main city but within walking distance to small shops and cafes. One of the best stays on our recent NZ trip. Definitely recommend.

Beautiful hotel, views, room, mini bar contents, beach nearby, lively area for shops and restaurants. Owners were friendly, helpful and accommodating. The architecture is clean, deco in character. Parking on site is plentiful. The nearby boardwalk is great for morning runs and sea swimming is an easy option.

August 2023 - Three night stay to explore Napier/Hawkes Bay Area. Very comfortable hotel close to dining options. We had a studio room in the historic building wing. Large room, comfortable and very clean with bath amenities and a mini fridge/coffee kettle. Not really a self cater type kitchen but plenty of dining options walkable from the hotel. Nice separate seating area to relax and a proper writing desk. Bathroom was very modern for an older building. The area was really quiet for sleeping quality. Nice storage options in room. Loved the older building atmosphere, even had small balconies overlooking the street. On site secure parking and complimentary laundry facility. Staff was very friendly and provided decent tips for all things local. Napier is a nice area to explore and I'd recommend the Art Deco Walking Tour to fully appreciate the area history and architecture. Napier CDB proper is a five minute drive and the area has many cellar doors. Nice hotel - only downside was the heating unit operation was difficult to master. Still worthy of a positive recommendation. …

Loved our stay here :-) We were greeted with a warm welcome in reception. I had booked directly through the hotel website contact page. I recommend this. The response time was good and they were helpful with my questions. I requested a twin room with ocean view and balcony and was not disappointed! The room was spacious, modern and very clean. The balcony had table and chairs and was opposite the beach. There was always something interesting to see. The Hotel has free parking and is conveniently located to restaurants, shopping and a cute little movie theater right next door. Can’t wait to return

After a pleasant reception we were shown where to park the car with plenty of spaces and how to reach our room. It was spacious and excellently equipped with a lovely bathroom with a stunning view. The room had a balcony with table and chairs with fabulous views also. Room service was extremely good. Breakfast was freshly cooked to order with a very good choice. All staff were smiling and polite and gave us excellent advice. The location is really good with lots of good restaurants and bars within minutes. We would unhesitatingly come here again and would highly recommend this hotel.

We are not usually a great lover of modern hotels but this was very comfortable with everything you needed for a comfortable stay. A ten min drive took you into beautiful Napier where we did an art deco walking tour which I recommend. The hotel also had free laundry facilities which was very handy and quick. The adjacent coffee house/cafe was very good for good especially breakfast.
