We spent four nights at this property and enjoyed every minute of our time. Our room (#7) was very spacious, the modern bathroom was huge, and the kitchenette perfectly adequate. We absolutely loved the secluded patio that opened from our room: wine & cheese each evening! Our host, David, and his sister were always available to provide directions or suggestions.... More

Right on Estuary @ Meeanee Quay for nice walking paths; 10 minutes walk to restaurants at West Quay and Bridge Street. But, have to take a taxi to downtown Napier - mine was NZ$16. Sleek, well designed buildings, so I really felt I was in a unique place and not a boring, plain motel. I felt very comfortable there. It... More

This motel is the subject of many reviews. I arrived here because i was sick of being gouged by Moteliers for internet, sometimes $NZ20.

The next room contained the bed, table and chairs and also a small kitchen running along one wall. The bathroom was large and had a spa bath with... More

Really good quality motel. Room had private outside seating area and bathroom had claw foot bath. Breakfast also very good. Motel out of town center but walking distance to wharf restaurant area which is good.

I thoroughly recommend this little gem of a motor lodge in Napier! First of all, I was struck by the kind helpfulness of mine host David, the owner/manager - nothing was too much trouble. Next, the peace and tranquility of the place was marvelous. We were given a complimentary up-grade to a king-size and found the room very comfortable, spacious... More
