Rutland Arms Inn ★★★★

📍 48-52 Ridgway Street, Whanganui

"Arrived into Whanganui and found the hotel easily. After checking in, very easily, we went to our room. Not sure how old the hotel is, but the hall way & guest lounge very 1920’s with modern touches - comfortable & elegant. Our room was another elegant room with lovely touches accenting the period of the property. Though looking “old” the bed was extremely comfortable. The bathroom was huge with a corner whirlpool bath, as well as a shower too. We ate in the restaurant that evening & both of us had a lovely meal. Great stay & definitely recommend it."

Fiesta Court Motel Hotels in Whanganui

Fiesta Court Motel

"My first experience was that this motel was not looked after. There were leaves and dirt everywhere outside and the gardens looked umkempt. On entering the room I noticed that the windows were filthy and 2 of the sheer curtains were ripped. There was a dead fly on the floor and another buzzzing around. There was no cutting board and no sharp knife. I found dirty crockery and cutlery, One cup had a large chip out of it. Hairs and dirt were in the drawer that the hair dryer was in. The couch was very uncomfortable. The owner was very pleasant and we were going to address these issues but he was preoccupied attempting to control his dog!"

Anndion Lodge Motel & Conference Centre ★★★★
"It's a really great place, comfy and cozy. The little veranda was cold in the morning but with the curtains, we didn't feel it at all in the room. As our room was more at the back and not so close to the road, we also didn't hear the traffic at all. Really nice accommodation."

"We were warm and comfortable. The sauna and plunge pool were a total bonus. A large number of us had gathered for an event at the wonderful Duncan Pavilion at the beach and really enjoyed debriefing around the awesome firepit long into the night."
