Ideal for nature-lovers looking for a self-sufficient getaway, lodges are fully furnished and self-catered. Usually made of wood and surrounded by forests or mountains, lodges can be part of a group or a single unit. More remote than holiday homes, lodges are popular for safari trips.
We enjoyed our short stay at the Fairley Motor Lodge in Napier. Our room was spacious and spotless! The host was friendly and helpful. We would highly recommend a stay at the Fairley!
Calling this a ‘motor lodge’ hardly does it justice! We had a beautifully-appointed two-bedroom apartment, with very comfortable furnishings and a full small kitchen. It was lovely and quiet, and a short drive into the center of Napier.
No hot water. Incredibly poor service. I have stayed in hundreds of hotels/motels, and this was hands down the worst experience I've had anywhere in the country. I have never, ever had management of an establishment outright lie and try to gaslight me into believing we did, in fact, have hot water. Other Google reviews show this is not an isolated incident. I have filed with the Disputes Tribunal, as well as lodged a complaint with booking.com
Appreciated how we were looked after, customer service was very inviting/smiling every time we saw owner very helpful & informative of activities/food shops/Restaurants in the area. Already sharing with whanau if in Napier Bluewater Lodge is a great facility
The in-room spa was definitely the highlight due to its size. Also there was a better selection of channels in this motel such as Sky movies and sports which we’ve not had at some other motels and lodges.
Amazing location
Room service was good as expected. Good there was access to smart TV which hardly can be found in other hotels motels or lodges.
