Top Mapua Hotel Reviews

The Hotel Nelson

8/10 Good

"While the property is well presented and the rooms and housekeeping very good, the same cannot be said about the staff. The front desk reception staff member spent over 10 minutes on a phone call before acknowledging my presence (and another guest checking in at the same time) and providing the room key. The staff in general around the property seem very ambivalent - customer service is certainly not part of their mantra."

Kimi Ora Eco Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing place to stay. Views were spectacular. Would definitely go again"

Palazzo Motor Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"We had a top stay in the Ambassador room! Totally appropriate for the ambassadors that we are. :-) The owners couldn't be more helpful if you wanted them to be, I wish all motels/hotels were as good as the Palazzo! Cheers! Dave"
