The room was amazing with the design of the rooms relating to time period of the Rutland Arms. Had plenty of room to walk around and the bed was very comfortable. The room was warm and at a good temperature. We ate in the restaurant for dinner, and it was great food. We had continental breakfast included which was so yummy and plenty that breakfast kept us going just about all day. Secure place to park your vehicle overnight too.

Whanganui is an ol'River Port town that still carries that ambience. If you were comparing ol'Paddle steamer towns with an Australia vs NZ type contest, you'd have an Ecucha Victoria or Morpeth NSW vs Whanganui match-up.
Whanganui has the ol'Paddle Steamer "Waimere" still in operation & a Waimere Steamer Museum. Don't miss out on the War Memorial Tower & look-out, it's a musta, you can even get an elevator there.
All the shops are here for the gals & of course the wife bought a new dress for the Whanganui Races. We spent 2 nights @ the Riverview Motel in a self contained Garden Unit, serenity abounds at this establishment, it's old but still gold.

Whanganui is a great place to visit.
Whanganui is a great place to visit. Friendly, great vibe, lots to see and do and not very expensive. I have never had a bad coffee there! Saturday market by the river is a must, as are the parks and gardens, a trip on the Waimarie, the tunnel and elevator, arts trail, beaches, bike trails, museum and restaurants. Heritage Weekend and Christmas Boxing Day are REALLY busy with a ton of stuff on. The Boatshed in Aramoho was our favourite restaurant this trip. Only negative in Whanganui is the AWFUL driving - and we are from Auckland!

The history of the city is clearly evident in the retention of a lot of charming century old buildings which have been carefully maintained on the outside with appropriate interior upgrades. A ride on the river steamboat and a unique in-ground lift which takes you from near sea level to the top of a hill suburb are other attractions.

Whanganui has a wealth of history.
Whanganui has a wealth of history. Like many modern day cities/towns around NZ, Whanganui had its hey day at the turn of the 1900s, and as the river became less important for transport and access, the local economy went into decline. However, many aspects of this affluent past have been preserved. Highlights for us included the trip aboard the paddle Steamer (1912 restored) Waimarie, taking the elevator to the top of Durie Hill and climbing the 176 steps to the top of the town's WW1 memorial.
Walking around Majestic Square and the modernist War Memorial Hall, made us feel transported to Brasilia, as this style of architecture was lauded by Brazilian architect Oscar Niemeyer.
We attended The Whanganui Opera House's Repertory Theatre production of Titanic Letters which was a lovely finale to our stay here.

Great area, near beach and a nice little holiday park with good amenities. Swimming pool close to kitchen, BBQ and covered area with tables, fab for families. Our small accommodation looked like a playhouse from the outside with a veranda to sit on, but provided tv, shower, toilet, kitchenette and double bed. Fine for the 1 night we stayed.

Our church group members went to Whanganui, some stayed at Coachmans Lodge Motel and some stayed at Burwood Motel. We did not really going around Whanganui as we were there for an event for our church and we had our lunch and dinner at the church hall.
We find it very easy to get around Whanganui and we will visit other places next time we go there.
We really enjoyed our trip.
This is truly character villa and Debby has done a splendid job to preserve the character and experience of living in a villa from a different era. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay and would certainly stay here again the next time Im in Whanganui.
The self check-in technology Debby is using makes the entire experince from start to finish a breeze - no hassles at all looking for keys in lock boxes or hoping someone is home to let me in.
The booking was last minute so I was surprised they had any cabins still available, especially as it was Wellington Anniversary weekend as well as Whanganui Vintage weekend.
They are so accommodation here it was fantastic, so much so we are already looking to book in again but for a longer stay this time. With the beach just round the corner and a great cafe/resturant up the road it was the ideal location.
It is a very beautiful building. The lobby lives up to the hotel's name. It is very grand. It is spacious with a beautiful ceiling, and a wide stately staircase. The bars are beautiful in the same way. The bedroom was cozy and quiet. The bed had an extremely comfortable mattress and good quality sheets. The bathroom facilities were absolutely fine. The reception was polite and welcoming.
Was our first time in Whanganui and we enjoyed our stay! Very Clean , Tidy warm and comfortable room , Spa Bath was great!, shower had amazing pressure! Staff were lovely and helpful. Looks like we chose the best accommodation option in Whanganui would recommend this place to our family and friends , was also very affordable.
The room we had was spacious, the grounds nice and clean
Cooking facilities were very good Kitchen area was good, clean
Dining area was great, it was just 2 of us expected another 2 whanau so I reckon the beddings would have suited the expected amount. I like the beds in the lounge as well as I like to watch tv until late
The is a bloody gorgeous place to stay, for a couple. We loved it. It's a unique building with an interesting history, it's very well appointed and it's in a lovely spot. We appreciated being able to plug in our EV overnight to charge it, too. It's less than fifteen minutes by car to the centre of Whanganui.
This is a low cost hotel but the wifi worked well , the beds were comfortable and the showers functioned well.
We selected this Motel for proximity to our destination and it worked well for us.
Not a place for long term stay-due to minimal in room cooking and cleaning facilities
Perfect location close to the shops and eateries. Unit was so warm, cosy and sparkling clean. We arrived late but didn't have to worry about getting the unit key as hotel owner left the unit unlocked for us. We will definitely be staying there again!
Beautiful location by the river, the whole motel faces toward the view & gets morning sun.
Very cool heritage/early 80s styling (we like that kind of thing) and all very well maintained & clean.
Spacious room with very well appointed kitchenette.
Nothing. This so called hotel should not be on your books, it does immeasurable damage to the reputation of Booking .com. It has made me question weather Booking .com can be trusted to provide worth while, clean, comfortable accommodation,
English style pub hotel, very comfortable, huge room and bed, very nice staff and lovely breakfast. Free parking at the back very useful. Whanganui turned out to be an interesting and attractive town, would like to have stayed longer.
You will love this space. Beautifully kept lawn and flowers. Flower gardens are wonderful. Amenities include snacks, soft drinks, and condiments for a reasonable price. Location is quiet and convenient to downtown Whanganui.
Lovely elevated garden setting on the East side of Whanganui with a veranda to enjoy the evening sun. A very handsome interior with spacious bedroom and living room and well-appointed period bathroom (shower above bath).
Spotlessly clean, good soundproofing, well appointed kitchen area and comfortable bed. Short walk to restaurants and sights and friendly , helpful staff. Will be my first choice when I return to Whanganui!
I was pleasantly surprised by how nice and spacious the room was. It feels very lux considering you’re in little Whanganui (I’ve only recently moved away). I really liked the room and will be back!
The property had all the facilities we needed, and is very central to Whanganui. It was well equipped, and the owner was very responsive to messages. Fabulous views.
