Set in Napier, Bluewater Lodge offers beachfront accommodation 200 metres from Napier Beach and offers various facilities, such as a garden, a shared lounge and a terrace.

The carpet is filthy and was not vacuumed at all. Under the bed was full of gross stuff. The stains on carpet revolting. Curtains thin and not long enough. The whole place is dirty. That is hallway, walls, bathroom and so on. Yuk

Looking for a hostel?
Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    The seafront location. The friendly atmosphere. The comfortable mattress. The chatty manager, Arthur. It's rather like an old style youth hostel, with the friendly vibe and the alcohol ban, but without the other YHA restrictions.

    Great to have secure parking, especially as travelling alone. I didn't mind paying for assigned car park, as it felt safer than on the street. Great location and friendly staff, very helpful. It was very quiet for being placed near CBD. Enjoyed my stay.

    It’s a great location right by the seafront and centre of town. There’s cheap all day parking at the end of the street. The lady at the front desk was lovely.
