Beach Front Motel Napier
Clean and tidy rooms with wonderful view of the beachfront. Close by to main city centre. The only issue we found was that the toilet flush button was difficult to press in the bathroom.

Art Deco Masonic Hotel
The room was lovely clean and spacious. Great to be able to use the balconies in the mornings and evenings. Our room was cleaned on our first day but not on our second day which was a little disappointing.
