Very nice hotel well located on walking distance from downtown Napier. A beautiful room with all you need. Great restaurant by the hotel, serving very good breakfast. They opened early only for us on depature day, because we had a tight schedule! That is good service!

Everything is styled thoughtfully to relate to a theme.
The balcony with views out to sea were a focal point.
