Great area, near beach and a nice little holiday park with good amenities. Swimming pool close to kitchen, BBQ and covered area with tables, fab for families. Our small accommodation looked like a playhouse from the outside with a veranda to sit on, but provided tv, shower, toilet, kitchenette and double bed. Fine for the 1 night we stayed.

Our church group members went to Whanganui, some stayed at Coachmans Lodge Motel and some stayed at Burwood Motel. We did not really going around Whanganui as we were there for an event for our church and we had our lunch and dinner at the church hall. We find it very easy to get around Whanganui and we will visit other places next time we go there. We really enjoyed our trip.

Whanganui is a bit of a hidden gem!
Whanganui is a bit of a hidden gem! Excellent dining spots and cafe's. If you are an art lover then it is the place for you. Lots of Galleries and local art collectives to meander through. The river walk is a great stroll and older buildings to admire.RexNew Zealand - 10Scored 10
Easy access to the main shopping area.
Easy access to the main shopping area. It was a public holiday so few places were open. So didn’t experience all what was on offer. Also there is 15% surcharge on top of what you buy when using your credit card ! Pay by cash ! Lovely walk along the river. I-site is an information centre which is really helpful. Travel up on the oldest elevator on Druie Hill amazing views

Whanganui is not a place we have spent any time at.
Whanganui is not a place we have spent any time at. As one of NZ’s few riverside cities, we enjoyed the differences that such locations offer. Whanganui has a rich history both Maori and Pakeha which we enjoyed learning sbout

- From £82.21 per night7.8Scored 7.8GoodRated good· 384 reviewsI liked the hosts that were polite and friendly. The cleaning staff were awesome and always asked if we needed anything they were glad to help. Our two motel rooms that we requested were beside each other and separated. When you book early the hosts will do their utmost to accommodate you. Easy parking and you are not far from the main city of Whanganui. Awesome location.MarainaNew Zealand

Great to be up among the birds and watch the canoeists go by. Fantastic conversion of the former signal box into accommodation and very nicely done.
