After staying with friends in Wellington for a couple of nights on makeshift beds, and eating nothing but takeaway food, we felt in need of a little bit of luxury when we got to Napier. We were travelling round the world for our 25th wedding anniversary, and had stayed in some wonderful places. So on the way we had a... More

My husband and I stayed here for 3 nights at the end of January to attend a wedding at Church Road Winery, the hotel was recommended by friends who had stayed there before. The hotel has a lovely old world charm with winding wooden staircases( and a lift) and a fascinating history ( it survived the Napier Earthquake and was... More

The County Hotel Napier is a nice, quaint hotel with a central location to downtown Napier. While the hotel is small, it has everything that you would need and want. The hotel is across the street from the New Zealand Wine Centre and the parking lot. The hotel definitely prides itself as being old fashioned. The room has an old... More

We stayed two nights at the County Hotel in Napier, New Zealand, March 5th & 6th. The hotel has a great location for walking to all the sights in Napier, the "Art Deco Capital".

Stayed here for 1 night on our tour around New Zealand. Loved the style of the hotel and the room was very spacious and luxurious. Slept well as the hotel was very quiet, even though we were right by the lift. Great location for a walk to the beach or into town. Staff in the hotel and restaurant were very... More

We had a great weekend in Napier and stayed in the County Hotel. If you are going to Napier and want to stay in a hotel in keeping with the towns character we would highly recommend this hotel. Motels are cheaper but for a few more dollars you get a lot more !!. Make sure you have the breakfast !! More

Although the building dates back to 1909, the hotel dates back only to the 1990s so if you are looking for a genuine historic hotel you will be disappointed. However, the conversion has been done very well apart from the odd niggle such as the old fashioned rotary indicator above the lift door that is still trundling down past 1... More

We stayed here for 3 nights and thoroughly enjoyed it. The staff were very very friendly and helpful and we even got a room with a bath that we asked for when we booked ( there was nothing available when we booked). There was absolutely everything in the room that we needed, even a spare mobile telephone! And the wifi... More

Napier is a quiet place, so choices of hotels seemed sparce. This hotel is fine and has some old world charm. Rooms are ok, if a little small and the noise insulation is not great. Staff were helpful. For a bit more life at night, head for the marina area where there are nice pubs and good food options with... More
