Great room (plenty of space and good facilities) with a view over the marina and hills beyond. Balcony for sitting outside to see the view. Location also very good - only 4-5 minute walk to a selection of many restaurants. Having said that, we ate in the Thirsty Whale each night as we were so impressed with it on our first night

I was very surprised that our 2 bedroom apartment was a large Deco home. Great price for such a huge place. The host was very nice and always ready to answer questions. The place was very clean , and very quiet. Walking distant to the pier and restaurants and coffee shops. Every guest get to have their own parking spot. Also there is a guest laundry too. Best motel i ever stayed at.

Calling this a ‘motor lodge’ hardly does it justice! We had a beautifully-appointed two-bedroom apartment, with very comfortable furnishings and a full small kitchen. It was lovely and quiet, and a short drive into the center of Napier.

Looking for a motel?

Both travellers on the road and on a budget rely on motels for convenient stops with reasonable rates. Direct access to parking makes a motel an easy place to catch some sleep after a day of driving. The relatively smaller size of this accommodation type can also help to make check-in quick and easy.

    I think they meant there was a 'swimming pool' in the unit, not a spa! It was huge! And kept its heat for at least several hours. The sea and sunrise view were exceptional. I've only had a couple of other such magnificent views from hotel or motel accommodation. The unit was spotless with ample crockery and bathroom type things. We loved everything about the place and space.

    Right opposite the sea. Easy walk into Napier centre. Napier is just gorgeous with all the are deco buildings and the care they have given to making the sea frontage beautiful. Coloured fountains at night etc. Motel well appointed. Welcoming staff. Clean and very comfortable room. Great shower. Enough mugs, plates etc. Bed very good and a balcony to look at the sea. Although on the road to town, hardly any cars came through at night so peaceful. Off road parking. Would recommend.
