Riverbank Cottage  

Split between Hastings character and Napier access: a charming hotel sits in Hastings while Riverbank Cottage is out by Napier, about 12 km from the city centre. Active or laid-back vacation — you choose.

The Hastings spot leans charming and low-key, with a private, undisturbed stay. Riverbank Cottage offers an easygoing cottage vibe away from the city hustle. Rooms aim for simple comfort and a relaxed pace.

Quiet, private stays and straightforward access to Napier’s sights from the cottage (12 km). This property is not pet-friendly. Wake up to calm mornings and set your own pace — active day out or slow local wandering.
