Good, Dependable Motel near Airport
Less than 5 minutes drive from Napier Airport, the Albatross Motel is also a close drive to central Napier, restaurants near Ahuriri, and the Esk Valley wine region as well as being across the road from the Ahuriri Lagoon and its walks. Great to stay here again and would be happy to stay again!
Room was kept very clean by friendly and hard working housekeeping staff. There is a dedicated parking space for each room so no issues finding a parking spot. Would stay there again.
i loved that the room was perfectly self contained with plates, bowls, cooker and when we wanted an iron the guy brought one ot use with a smile. Really lovely.
I liked the estuary views and the easy access to the Napier/Hastings freeway.
I didn't like the heavy footsteps along the balcony front, it was quite noisy.
