Surrounded by restaurants and cafes in Napier city center, Motel de la Mer offers ocean-facing suites with a fully equipped kitchen. Some rooms have a balcony with ocean and city views.

Room was huge and very well appointed with a sofa and two chairs along with small table and chairs. It also had an extra room with twin bed that we didn't need. Our room was located upstairs and I wouldn't say it had a good view but you could see the coast across the street. The hotel staff was excellent and very helpful. It was within walking distance to downtown area and restaurants. In March the area is pretty quiet and easy to find parking.

    A wonderful solid Art Deco building converted into a stunning boutique hotel with period furniture, set on a quiet street but within the heart of Napier. Staff were friendly, attentive and good humoured, the hotel spotless, the rooms spacious and quiet and the food excellent.

    This is an old house on the seafront which has been turned into a boutique B&B with a lot of character. Our room was tastefully if somewhat eccentrically decorated with many attractive and stylish details. There is a breakfast room with a splendid seaview. The hotel advertises affordable luxury and that is a good description.
