Rating: 8.5

Was Gäste sagen

Viele Gäste loben The Nautilus für seine malerische Lage an der Marine Parade mit einfachem Zugang zur Stadt, die geräumigen Zimmer mit Meerblick und Whirlpool-Badewannen im Zimmer sowie das freundliche Personal, das oft hilfreiche Aufmerksamkeiten wie Upgrades bietet.

Zimmer und Gemeinschaftsbereiche werden häufig als sauber beschrieben, obwohl mehrere Bewertungen eine veraltete Einrichtung, abgenutzte Möbel und gelegentliche Versäumnisse bei der Reinigung erwähnen. Die Lage am Strand bringt für einige Zimmer, die tiefer gelegen oder zur Straße hin zeigen, Verkehrslärm mit sich, der Aufzug zu den oberen Etagen ist unzuverlässig oder fehlt, und es gibt Parkplätze vor Ort, diese können jedoch knapp oder begrenzt sein. Eine praktische Wahl als Strandbasis, wenn man einige Gebrauchsspuren und gelegentlichen Lärm akzeptieren kann.

The room location was great but not having a working lift was a pain, being on the 2nd foor. However we were offered the service of the person who checked us in to carry our luggage. The property and room is a little tired in appearance. There was a massive jacuzzi in the room and a shower in the bathroom but no bath or show gel provided. When i asked reception said they did not supply only a tiny bar of soap and a small bottle of conditioner. Of the 12 hotels on route in NZ this is the only one and having a jacuzzi bath should have been a no brainer.

A nice view of the sea. A bit dated decor. Room up 3 flights of stairs. Very big complex. Unfortunately we weren’t able to get a park on second night in the complex as all parks were taken so had to park on the street. It was 10pm. Disappointing.

Was a great overnight stay. Located on Marine Parade with a full ocean view and balcony. Traffic noise is noticeable at peak times when ranch slider is open. Use of space in unit was well laid out and included a large spa bath. Plenty of parking. Restaurants within walking distance. The Warehouse is also a 5 minute walk. Great walking also available along full beachfront. Would stay here again.

This property has so much potential but is let down by a lack of maintenance. Considering it isn’t very old it is very shabby. Great location, great view, plenty of space but just so rundown both in our executive spa room with sea view and the whole complex in general. There was wallpaper coming off the walls, water damage to the fronts of the kitchenette cupboards, grime/mould around shower base, paint missing from door/architraves etc. Just a shame that it isn’t being cared for.

I really enjoyed my one night stay at The Nautilus, as I was just passing through Napier. It is definitely a Mom and Pop type hotel, but my room was extremely clean with a very modern bathroom and nice linens. I had a small balcony with a beautiful view of the ocean. The hotel is centrally located, easy walk to the beach, shopping, and McLean Park. Definitely recommend.

Spacious studio with good sized bathroom and partial sea view. Clean and thoughtfully furnished, and reception staff very friendly. Fast internet speed and huge Smart TV for entertainment. Location is great as easy walk into the city, shops, restaurants, and opposite the ocean. My studio is absolutely perfect for single or a couple but not for children. My only negative is lack of wardrobe and storage space. Just a very narrow cupboard with an ironing board and iron in it. Apart from this, I thoroughly enjoyed my 7 night stay and would return again.

Unfortunately the rooms are a bit tired looking. I had a room on the ground floor which was terribly noisy. I’m not sure the windows on the bifolds are double glazed so every vehicle that drove past was very loud. For this reason, I wouldn’t chose to stay here again :(

The staff support was non existent, this was never a four star facility, a drunken brawl developed on our third night, staff were aware of the problem from around 7pm but the police were not called until very late in the evening when the disturbance was out of control, with Expedia's no returns no matter the cause left us heavily out of pocket, no way could we feel safe in that environment

Reception shut early at 8pm so if you had booked - and there was no mention of this when booking - it was a major drama to get checked in especially when the rude receptionist yells at you on the phone and demands a copy of your bank statement to prove that the bond taken off the card you provided wasnt stolen. A huge language barrier, so much that she had to text you her questions. Never ever have I been subjected to such rude behavior

Our room was very nice and well appointed and the view over the road to the beach area was excellent. The kitchen area is quite dated but the furnishings and appliances were all modern and comfortable. Externally the entrance and staircase areas look pretty run down. Rust runs through the paint are very visible and these areas lack the same general tidy appearance of the room we stayed in. A nice bonus was breakfast at the onsite restaurant, which had lots of options and the quality of what we purchased (scrambled eggs, mushrooms, coffee) was a high level. Overall I would recommend, although not to anyone with mobility issues as there are no lifts to upper levels.
