Breakwater Apartments

Large space. Location good. 20 min walk to napier to the right. Left to harbour bars. The gin trap being great! Feels a bit tired. Few cockroaches on stairs when we arrived and still there when we left...feels like it needs a good freshen up... rubbish emptied daily and fresh towels but no clean sheets... okay over weekend but traffic noise through week terrible as facing the port. Great views and sunset. But not sure we would book again.

Very disappointing. This is a 2 bedroom apartment upstairs with garage below. The garage was unable to be accessed. Low standard of cleanliness and maintenance. Stairs unsuitable for an elderly guest.

We stayed here for a couple of nights whilst visiting Napier. The Breakwater apartments are surprisingly spacious and thus offer real good value for money. The two reasons we choose Breakwater. We stayed in apartment 9 which has a nice view of the bay and the port. It offers a large living room with a sizeable kitchen. Kitchen is reasonable equipped. There are two bedrooms. Only one bathroom though which is a bit challenging with teenagers. At least there is a separate toilet. It's an easy walk to local cafés, bars and restaurants. Its only a 5 minute drive to the beautiful Art Deco centre of Napier. The only draw back is the freight trains rumbling past. Reception staff at Breakwater hotel was a bit unfriendly, very unusual for NZ. Would I stay here again? Yes, with a large crowd.
