Scenic Hotel Te Pania  

Friendly satff. The bed and pillows were amazingly comfortable. The central location and the view.

Convenient location, nice views

No gym

Location and view

When I opened the fridge the smell was dreadful and very strong like something was rotting inside. The room was looking tired and uncared for.

Very clean Great location. Close walk to shops, prison museum , Napier Spa . Nice selection of local toiletries.

The rooms should have had balconies which would have completed the amazing beach views. No facilities for children. Possibly add a kiddy corner near the reception and close up one section of the bar. Restaurant was quiet and didn't require all the space.

Location and willingness to accommodate personal needs. Non flappable and helpful staff

I loved that the rooms had windows that opened!!!!

Being a solo traveller, I prefer to eat in hotel restaurants rather than public restaurants and the standard of cuisine at Te Pania was excellent. Also the proximity to the cbd and the other tourist attractions was useful.

No much to say here really, other than when I left I had the feeling that I could happily have stayed another couple of nights.

good modern design

great view of the sea close to town

check in was a little delayed due to hotel being very busy

Modern decor closeness to town, water view

pillows a bit hard

Nice and clean from the moment we walked in. Staff were very friendly and helpful.

........?

Great location. Bed was very comfortable.

There were a few very noticeable stains - one on the carpet and one on the bed valance. Also found a blood stain on the sheet which we are pretty certain wasn't ours - yuck! Also the iron in the room left stains on my husbands very expensive shirt!! I don't see how this can be a 4 star hotel!

Staff were very good, efficient and friendly.

Can't complain really

comfortable bed

We were impressed with the design and enjoyed the ambience of the facilities on offer.

The parking was too limited.

It was a relaxed and inviting atmosphere

It would appear that the windows in the rooms were not sound proofed. Our room was on Level 3 above the bar - main entrance and we could hear any conversation outside. When we ourselves sat in the same area we had an irrate patron in a room above and bang on their window yelling at us to "shut up"

Lovely location, friendly and helpful staff throughout hotel and restaurant. Nice view from all rooms, very well designed hotel. Free Parking on site.

the hotel and staff were excellent we will stay there again.

It was easy to find location wise. The staff were friendly and helpful and the room was very clean and the beds were very comfortable. Would definitely stay again

The breakfast wasn't very hot at all - barely warm.

Clean, fresh, modern, great rooms & comfortable beds, great service, good restaurant, good location in some respects (ie: close to beach, main shopping streets, etc) - but see next panel about noise.

Have stayed there several times (selected by my Company not me). Hotel is generally excellent except for the location - it is on a very busy road where every morning Mon - Sat large noisy trucks make their way to & from the Port (along with some Boy-Racers!!) making sleeping difficult after about 5.30am. The curved design of the hotel doesn't help the problem as it seems to focus the noise at the Hotel. The Port road needs to have a curfew for heavy trucks 11pm to 7am - there is an alternative route to the Port they could use. Another thing: Be aware - the Napier City beach is generally not safe for swimming - has a steep-sloping foreshore producing strong under-tows. Advised for strong swimmers only (not children). Try Bayview beaches further North instead - the sand is better there too.

The location was excellent, a short walk to the beach or Napier town centre. It was very comfortable, with lots of room.

It was a little noisy from the ice machine outside our room and from the main road in front.

Lift; sea view

Breakfast. Staff did not replenish food items on first day. Reception was small and crowded.

Well maintained, great location,friendly staff!

Location and views were excellent. A refreshingly modern, up-to-date hotel. Great beds, and amenities.

Breakfast was pretty good, although laking with "healthy choice" bakery goods. (Says my wife, who would have preferred some low fat muffins). I didn't mind the croissants and cinnamon bun but we've been travelling for a couple of weeks so I agree with her that too many of these yummy fatty things get to you after a while.

A nice little hotel with excellent service, and amazing breakfast! We upgraded to this one after staying a night in "The County Hotel", this hotel was cheaper, and nicer in every way unless you're into very old buildings.
