Scenic Hotel Te Pania

Like many places in tourist towns there is a staff shortage. When we arrived our room wasnt ready. The staff were lovely and arranged for a free drink in the bar and a room upgrade. I was really impressed with how positive and friendly they were.Our room was lovely with ocean views. The hotel is quiet and close to the beach, cycle hirr and a myriad of fabulous restaurants. There is free parking on site but I image if you arrived late there may not be sufficient parks.I would absolutely stay here again in a heartbeat.

We were travelling with our dog when weather conditions causing slips forced closure of the road between Napier and Taupo. We googled accommodation that would accept our dog to stay in with us and the Scenic Hotel came up. They were fantastic and looked after us very well - there were dog feeding bowls and a dog bed in the room. The staff couldn't have been more kind and helpful we can thoroughly recommend them.

From checking in to checking out, very polite staff. The room was wonderful, very comfortable bed. Loved the Armchairs by the window, spent time looking out at the view. It was great to have instructions on how to work the TV and Heat Pump. Would recommend this site. Handy to local Restaurants.

Lovely hotel at lovely location. We got a room upgrade and a free bottle of bubbly! 4 stars as we thought the continental breakfast could of been better and for evening meal the food was rather slow but very tasty.

I do like this hotel very much. To be able to walk across the street to the Ocean Spa for a morning swim or soak in their hot pools makes Scenic Te Pania my go-to in Napier. You cannot beat the sea facing rooms with floor to ceiling glass, the comfy Scenic beds and the charming staff. Yes it may be a bit tired around a few edges but I just don't care.

Very handy location with a lovely view from our room.The room was spacious and bathroom had everything we needed. Great shower pressure.Beds very comfortable also.I would of given it a 5 if the pillows had not been all very fat pillows that didn't even seem to compress like they were air filled! Perhaps a couple in the cupboard that were normal size would be helpfulOtherwise perfect stay.

I was part of a tour group stuck in Napier at the Scenic Te Pania hotel due to Cyclone Gabrielle. This hotel out shone themselves by providing the most amazing service, food, hospitality, laughs and positive energy despite facing such huge challenges caused by the cyclone. The Kitchen brigade turned out these incredibly tasty wholesome meals, three times a day that satisfied everyone! All the staff chipped in wherever they were required, and we became a bit of a family, all trying to stay positive. They even drove some of my guests to the airport to catch flights out, using their own cars and what was left of their precious petrol. The fact there was no power or communications the entire three days we were there, the hotel produced miracles! Thank you Katie, the incredibly caring General Manager and her fabulous supportive team. You are all amazing and Scenic Hotels are so lucky they have you!!! :-)

Management very obliging with my request for 6 nights stay for 2 x sick family members due to house renovations. Multiple visitors coming and going throughout the day. The room was very clean and comfortable. The food was excellent. All the staff were very very caring. Highly Recommend.

From check in to check out, the whole experience was an extremely pleasant one. Have no hesitation in highly recommending Scenic Hotel Napier. Lovely friendly informed staff. And couldn't fault the dinner or breakfast either. I'll be back!!
