We found the host most hospitable. The accommodation had excellent amenities and was very conveniently located for Napier. We found it best to walk into the town as there are time restrictions on parking.
Napier is an outstanding town in many respects least of all the wonderful art deco buildings. For $10 we purchased a booklet that enabled us to have a
self -guided tour.
We also I had some bicycles and went on a memorable 30 km ride. Be aware it was quite tiring!
