We had a fantastic stay at the Crown again. It’s ideal location, beautiful bathrooms and sunlit rooms make it the ultimate Napier stay for us. Friendly staff also rang to say we had left a wine cooler bag in the room and would they like us to send it back to Wellington for me ? That’s incredible service. When I left my togs in a room a five star hotel in Auckland said they never ring as it would take up too much of their time.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
The property has a new building and an original one built in 1932. The rooms in the “old” building are advertised as “Heritage Suite”L so by “heritage”, they mean old and tired! . It had two chairs and a table; not exactly a suite. It also had terrible single pane windows, allowing noise in from the street, and an old wooden entry door that required a physical key to lock/unlock. Felt very tired. It wasn’t anywhere near what we expected for almost NZD$400 and the only thing we liked about it was proximity to the beach. Limited restaurants so we ended up driving 2.5 km to get dinner in the downtown core. Quite disappointing and I wouldn’t recommend it to a friend travelling to Napier.
