Fantastic service. ##### David Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Daniel Dec 3, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness Nice rooms and friendly staff. Five stars. I asked them why Expedia couldn’t cancel one of my three rooms after an erroneous booking online (called within 12 hours to fix, still 5 weeks from our stay). Was told that “we can’t cancel - only Expedia can.” Got the same story from Expedia “we can’t cancel without hotel approval”). Expedia claims they called twice and cancel was denied. Hotel says they never called. One star. SOMEONE IS LYING. Zero stars. Parking fee is added if you have a vehicle. Three stars. Location is great - near many venues and restaurants. Four stars. ##### Daniel Stayed 1 night in Dec 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kevin D Jan 14, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Excellent preservation of historic bank turned into hotel. Kept the charming Victorian elements in this Art Deco city. Excellent restaurant (Curchill) with very good wine list. ##### Kevin D Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### JOHN Oct 27, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness Building itself was in keeping with the town history art nouveau style , we spent just the one night on a Monday, which meant there were not many amenities regarding the hotel as they only open the restaurant leading into the weekend and booking in is strictly between 10 am and 4:00pm with somebody managing the front desk, or you have to phone to get somebody to let you in. We were a bit concerned that the hotel was unmanned overnight, it might not have been but that's what it felt like. The room itself was very nice and clean; there wasn't any view other than the alleyway below and the rooftops of the business cross the way. When we were going to bed we found out that the headboard was not properly attached to the bed which meant moving the bed away from the wall and the towel rail in the bathroom fell off when reaching for the towel. We wanted to report this so we went back to the hotel after having our breakfast just after 10:00 and waited to the quarter past but the front door was never opened and we could see that somebody was waiting to get in, as we had a long drive ahead of us, we had to leave without Informing the hotel of the above. Would I stay again probably not. ##### JOHN Stayed 1 night in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Alan Apr 21, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities My wife and I have stayed at the County 8 - 9 times since 2009\. Lovely art deco style hotel. Outstanding meals (try the lamb rump). Staff are just great. Angela is just the most welcoming and friendly hotel owner you will ever meet. Hotel is in the heart of the Napier CBD and across the road from the Marine Parade. Great secure parking across the street. Unbeatable. ##### Alan Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Aaron Aug 30, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This is a centrally located hotel, with lovely elegant rooms that are warm and welcoming. Unfortunately, the hotel cafe was closed for renovations whilst I was trying. But there are plenty of alternatives within a block or two walking distance. ##### Aaron Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Christine Feb 16, 2026 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities The service was excellent and the room and bathroom were spacious and clean. ##### Christine Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2026 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ken Jan 28, 2026 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Awesome hotel and great service ##### Ken Stayed 5 nights in Jan 2026 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Graeme Jan 6, 2026 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Excellent stay ##### Graeme Stayed 1 night in Jan 2026 ### 8/10 Good #### Wendy Hunt and Ross Dec 13, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Staff lovely. ##### Wendy Hunt and Ross Stayed 1 night in Dec 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Grant Oct 12, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great place to stay with lovely staff, super convenient and nice yesteryear charm ##### Grant Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Graham Oct 27, 2025 . ##### Graham Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Hayden Aug 24, 2025 Liked: Staff & service The room was nice and clean but the bathroom is fully tiled with no heat so it was freezing.
