What a fabulous place! Tom and Esther are wonderful hosts. The breakfast was great and Esther’s homemade cake was a lovely bonus. All the little extras make this so special. Thanks again and hopefully we get to visit again 🙏 😁

This was a perfect place to stay in Napier. The location is great; right across from the water and within easy walking distance to everything in town. What made this stay truly outstanding was our hosts, who were super friendly, serving us cocktails with the other guests in the evening and staying to chat with us, as well as providing a great breakfast in the morning.

Excellent stay. Extremely friendly hosts, great location and a very flexible breakfast. Complimentary drinks bar and lots of thoughtful extras in the room (snacks, shower sponge, even port in the evening). Highly recommended.

Fabulous boutique hotel, one of the lovliest places I have stayed. Very homely and friendly. The owners Tom and Esther are delightful and very attentive hosts. It's a wonderful place to stay if you are lucky enough to visit Napier. The only drawback is it's location. It's a good 15/20 min walk to the centre of Napier and restaurants. Good for working up an appertite!

What a treat to be at 415 Marine Parade. The accommodations were lovely. Breakfasts comprised of local fruits and nuts - delicious! Enjoyed the happy hour drinks and the conversation with the hosts & other guests. It was clear to me that our hosts, Esther & Tom, are quite experienced travelers from the details in the room. A real delight to return in the evening to port and chocolate. In fact, it inspired quite an after dinner conversation on the deck for us! Esther’s restaurant recommendation was the perfect place for us. So very grateful for all their attention and hospitality. Highly recommend staying here if you are in Napier!
