So much to see. The architecture is beautiful.

So much to see. The architecture is beautiful. Old buildings lovingly painted in pastel colours , a superb playground for the children , a paddle steamer riverboat which cruises the Whanganui river . A very pretty city with lots to enjoy. Great art shops and the best farmers markets ever . Fab restaurants to name a few The Rutland Arms , and the Castlecliff cafe/restaurant “The Citadel”.

I love Whanganui and have always enjoyed my time there — I have family in the area. Momiji was a lovely place to go for dinner, and Caroline’s Boatshed is always a favourite for a meal. The Saturday market is also a great place to visit and never disappoints.

Beautiful river city.

Beautiful river city. You can bike safely along designated roads or try the mountain bike parks. You can surf at the local beach. Gardens are magic, and the town bustles. Fab cafes all over. Brilliant arts centre, local artists everywhere, and the Sarjeant Art Gallery is sublime. Try the Riverside Markets Kowhai Park also, is a fantastic spot for young and old, to play and picnic. Easy to get around the city.

A bit off the normal tourist track - but well worth the stop over. Great coffee and toasties at Franks restaurant. Lovely Main Street to look at the shops. A large variety of antique shops. The river is very nice to walk along as well.

The Whanganui Museum and the Sergeant Gallery are both worthy of extended visits, they are a highlight for any visitor to the area. The small arts and crafts galleries are interesting and innovative; some very fine and quirky cafes enrich the experience - for any visitor, Whanganui is now one of the most satisfying cultural locations in NZ.

We have stayed there several times before because it is quite easy to get into the main street and complete the tasks we were down in Whanganui for. The room was well set up and large. lots of room for bags etc and an excellent spa bath was provided in the room. Bed was very comfortable as was the parking. The heat pump kept the room warm, and the television offered a very full range of channels.

We've stayed here a few times in the past and been very happy with everything. This stay was no different - the staff are helpful and friendly, and our room was very clean and comfortable. It's an easy walk to the centre of town and also to the fabulous Sarjeant Gallery, a visit to which was the prime reason for this stay in Whanganui.

The location suited our own personal needs for travelling by car in Whanganui, but generally too far to walk to facilities like cafes, restaurants, etc. Parking good. An older style of timber construction, but room very comfortable. Had spare bedroom we didn't use. Small practical kitchenette.
