My wife and I have stayed at the County 8 - 9 times since 2009. Lovely art deco style hotel. Outstanding meals (try the lamb rump). Staff are just great. Angela is just the most welcoming and friendly hotel owner you will ever meet. Hotel is in the heart of the Napier CBD and across the road from the Marine Parade. Great secure parking across the street. Unbeatable.

This is a centrally located hotel, with lovely elegant rooms that are warm and welcoming. Unfortunately, the hotel cafe was closed for renovations whilst I was trying. But there are plenty of alternatives within a block or two walking distance.

Great location, close to the CBD. Very well appointed room and great decor throughout the hotel matching Napier's art deco theme. Loved the complimentary port in the library, would buy a bottle if it was for sale. Would definitely consider staying here again next time we're in Napier. Dean & Michelle
