Hotel & Motel & Hostel in Hastings

“We have just returned from an amazing holiday in Japan. Petra was our agent at Best Travel and we couldn’t have asked for better. Thank you for all you did Petra. I’ll be back in to see you soon ready to plan the next one.”

“Spent 5 weeks there and was a very pleasant stay. Place has very positive vibe and feel more like a big campground with travellers from all over the world than classic hostel. Met great people here and made good memories. John, the owner, was always willing to help and provide advice, regardless time of the day. Always had variety of jobs to provide, found me one just few days after my arrival. If you are looking for something more than just accommodation this is the place you wanna stay.”

“Both the owners and cleaning staff were polite and friendly. While I didn’t use the pool it was clean and looked like it was well maintained. Shower pressure was good and in our room the bathroom had plenty of space. Extra pillows were in the room and our towels were replaced regularly. Top of the list for future visits to Hastings.”

“I have stayed there with my husband on 3 separate occasions and enjoyed the Tranquillity and the views. It has been a pleasure to drive up and down the tree lined driveway - Park into a courtyard which has the entrance to your own 1st floor spacious apartment. The bed was like sleeping on a cloud, the pheasant call woke us in the morning to beautiful Hawkes Bay weather. Then we packed the car to go trout fishing on the nearby rivers. A day of golf, then unfortunately we had to go home. Each trip being much of the same routine. The hosts always ensure your needs are satisfied, lovely couple.”

“Friendly staff, good size rooms & warm, comfy beds bonus has a spa & close to everything all within walking distance”

“Exceptional service. Delightful guys and the best part is they left the place neat and tidy. Thankyou for your outstanding service. Most impressed with the Professionalism this Company displays.”

“Excellent service, quality beds, washing machine and fridge. Good communication, friendly and professional. I would use again”

“The yoga class was A class, Matt is an amazing teacher. The best yoga class I have been to ever. Thankyou so much to the team”

“Highly recommend Tiger House! Very peaceful & relaxing stay, quiet, with an expansive outlook from the kitchen window. The outdoor bath is a great spot & the pool would be awesome in summer. The outdoor fire makes it really cosy & its such a unique spot, feels very foreign! Nice Citta towels & bedding. Host Woody was very accomodating & communicative, left us breakfast provisions & fresh fruit & local coffee, much appreciated. Until next time!”

“I thoroughly enjoyed the stay. The room is very large, warm and very quiet. I was able to work and to rest. The motel is walking distance to the center and to the beach. The bathroom has a large spa bath. I highly recommend this motel”

“We stayed here for business purposes and the room was clean and decent layout in the one bedroom air conditioned unit. Seemed very affordable for what you get. Would happily stay here again.”

“Clean and very nice camp. Love the bush kitchen with pizza oven and recycling a plus!”

“January 2025 stayed 4 nights. Newly renovated and looks great. Comfy king bed, good sized bathroom and shower. Had everything we wanted plus great pool. Location good. Wouldn't hesitate to stay again.”

“Lovely people showed me my room, was solo tenant, clean and tidy room, felt homie for me who is born and raised here in Hastings but I live in Melbourne. Always a nice fresh room daily. Stayed here for 5 nights I fully recommend this place and I will be definitely be staying here everytime I come home Thankyou for having me. ❤️”

“Excellent AirBnB right in Centre of Town shops & restaurants.”

“Very clean and tidy room ,located next to supermarket and 5 minutes to beach, friendly owner , price is very affordable, large kitchen and comfy lounge, very recomended”

“Good location which is quiet despite being on main road. Friendly staff. Very clean, comfortable well appointed rooms. Can recommend and will come again. But keep it to yourself!!”

“The Rotten Apple is the place to be in Hastings. Together with the Common Room the best place! Great atmosphere and nice common area. And the best hostel community Ive ever experienced. So many memories and friends I found here. Definitely my best part in New Zealand so far. If you need an awesome place to stay and work and have the best parties on the weekends, go here!!!!”

“Reading some of these reviews I find really unfair. We had a great stay for 1 week. There were atleast 20 people staying in the hostel at this time and never once did we struggle to find somewhere to cook or chill out in peace. Multiple showers and kitchens. Comments on the clenliness of a hostel is more a reflection on the people staying there than it is the management- it only takes a couple minutes to create a mess. Jason the manager really is a top guy and went out of his way to help me out after an unexpected thing popped up meaning my plans changed, again I find comments criticising him completely out of character and undue. Thanks for having us, would have happily stayed for a couple months to work longer. Jack & Tara”

“Liz is a lovely lady very accommodating. We had a nice stay in Liz on Lowry and good location.”

“Thank you Hawkes Bay Properties you are amazing. I enjoyed being a tenant of one of your rental properties, it was a hard decision to make when handing back the property due to life changes . Alisha was my property manager, and I am grateful for her patience when answering my many vacating questions or organising general house maintenance . Thank you very much for the opportunity. Wishing Dee and the team all the best. Kind Regards Lynn T”

“it was a massive suprise from previous acomadation. friendly. nice neighbours. quite at night much love you deserve five star”

“We loved our 1960's style motel stay. Super clean room, plenty of space, very comfy beds n pillows, quality linen. Loved the fully equipped kitchen and amenities. Pool was clean and staff really friendly. Parked right outside our room. Shower pressure a bit slow but not a problem. Would stay again if we return from Australia. Thank you”

“Amazing place, great hosts and value for money. Definitely will go back”
