Very Good
GGuest UserHighly recommenad staying at the Spanish Lady staff were amazing we had a great stay in our 2bdrm unit it's an older style could do with a bit of paint to upgrade but beds were comfortable kitchen was well equipped with oven an stove top cooking utensils dishes etc.
Shower toilet well stocked with towels complimentary shampoo/conditioner handwash toilet paper very clean. We stayed 2days and enjoyed our time only downside for us was the window in the toilet glass shutters allowed cold air into the room as well as a security issue for me. Overall stay was excellent access to laundry an if it was warmer weather the pool and spa would of been absolute tops for us as a family. Close to shops supermarket and city centre.
Thank you Spanish Lady we will definitely come back again when in Napier
GGuest UserVery clean and quiet. WiFi, while free would not allow streaming, and access to some other general sites such as NZ Parliament. So used mobile data. Some utensils and cockery need updating and replacing e
g. chipped cockery and missing spoons. No Sky Movie channels and one documentary channel - but plenty of sports channels.
Only the plus side friendly greeting from reception and good value for money deal. Bed was comfortable, and not much noise from road. The small courtyard out the back was nice to sit in.
沈沈The room was very nice and the landlord was very patient and kind. Winter is a bit cold, but it is acceptable. Not far from there is a Chinese food outside, the supermarket is 500 meters small, and it takes 20 minutes to go.
GGuest UserYes it’s an older hotel but the rooms are spacious and the location unbearable, we had lovely ocean views from the balcony. Cons: older hotel, no lift. Room smelled of cleaning products initially but this was taken care of by the air conditioning.
GGuest UserWe booked Pebble Beach Motor Inn for a two night stay and we were amazed by quality of our room overlooking the ocean. The room was super clean and comfortable and included a spa bath if that’s for you. I would say this is the best hotel we could have hoped for to fit our budget. Very impressed.
GGuest UserVery clean with great views. My grandaughter came to stay a night on the last night and couldn’t stop staring at the views she’s only 5 so even she appreciated it. Great service from reception and housekeeping. Definitely recommend.
GGuest UserBeautiful place to stay, big size room & bath with Jacuzzi. All the amenities you need for a comfortable stay are there. Ample parking spaces. We enjoyed our stay so much that I have already made booking for our next trip in March 2026.
EElectro_totarkaVery clean, cozy, the room has everything you need, even a small kitchen, cutlery, and dishes. There is a refrigerator, hot water in the shower, towels, a TV, and internet—amazing for such a good price.
GGuest UserThere is a detached house with a small courtyard, just on the street, but not in the courtyard of the Coastline Motel, about 200 meters away. The beach is right outside. There are two rooms, which are relatively clean and have a kitchen for cooking. The overall feeling is OK! Parking is on the roadside, which is not so convenient, but the overall experience is good.
YYAWENFree parking, parking at the entrance of the accommodation, very convenient. The kitchenware is very complete, except that there is no chopsticks. Because there is a kitchen, it is very convenient to get some children's favorite food in the morning. The room has 3 single beds and 1 double bed, enough to live, plus a baby cot. It is very convenient to have a bathroom upstairs and downstairs.
