Art deco fabulousness in the heart of Napier
Pros:

I loved this hotel for it's ambience and history. Love the art deco decor. Lovely spacious room with a door to the deck. Location of my room was quiet (I can imagine others may be less so). Lovely bathroom with a small tub. Really friendly and helpful reception staff. Fantastic location in the heart of Napier.

Cons:

Nothing really.

Pros:

Beautiful hotel in a historic location. Welcoming and helpful staff. Spacious room (suite).

Cons:

Parking lot - although the hotel reserves a spot for you, it is not adjacent to the property and non guests might just take the empty spots…

Hotel histórico con encanto y excelente ubicación.
Pros:

Ubicación y encanto. Hotel histórico ( estuvo la Queen!) muy bien decorado estilo Art Deco. El personal es muy simpático.

Cons:

La puerta ventana de la habitación da a un patio muy bonito ( con vistas al océano) el problema es cuando otros clientes del hotel se sientan delante de tu puerta pegados a tu habitación ( no deberían poner sillas delante de las habitaciones)
