The city of Bach Napier

Something a little different here for the discerning back packer / traveler / holiday maker / tourist who wants to be in the heart of the city, but away from the traffic and not pay a fortune. This funky, compact little property will tick a lot of your boxes.

This thoughtfully appointed studio apartment is downstairs to the owner's home, but is very private. It is light and bright with gorgeous morning sun and a lovely city / sea-scape from the private balcony.

Stroll to all of Napier inner-city cafes, shops, weekend markets, Ocean Spa pool complex, and the many attractions of Marine Parade (2 minutes walk). Perfectly situated for Art Deco events being directly opposite Napier's Cathedral and 1 minute walk to Hastings and Tennyson Streets.

Not suitable for young children or anyone with physical disabilities / mobility issues, as the access is somewhat steep with stairs and no disabled access.

NB: Bed is a standard double only due to configuration of the room.
Special conditions:
$500pw April to October.

* Smoking permitted outside only
* Property not suitable for young children or anyone with physical disabilities due to path / steps

Extras: Cleaning (included); Linen (included);

Quirky pad
Super-handy to the Napier seashore, CBD and highlights like the MTG Art Gallery. Yes, it's small but has everything a couple needs for a few nights, especially including parking.

Little Gem in Napier
I had booked this for my Dad to stay in for his trip to Napier while he was visiting from the UK. He thought that it was an excellent location as it was near to Marine Parade so he could have a good walk. Would recommend it to others

We loved this quirky, cosy little pad.
This cleverly contrived little pad has an an inner city character that would appeal to those who want to stay in walking distance of the main street and the waterfront. An unexpected short cathedral bells concert one evening was a bonus. We liked the simplicity of having all the rented amenities close at hand. Intermittent faults of the iron and fridge were a bit of an inconvenience at the time and we reported these to the owner, who was responsive. Overall a happy experience and we may well try to return some time.

This small Bach is in a wonderful location. You are central to everything Napier offers. An early walk on Marine Parade to start your day and a delicious meal at Vinci's to end it all within walking distance. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here and although compact it had everything we needed.

A very nice Bach located in an excellent situation
We had a very pleasant stay. The “Bach” was perfect, very clean and very well outfitted. We were happy that we had chosen this property. The only small criticism we would have is perhaps the web site should note that access to the “Bach” may not be suitable for elderly or those with mobility issues. We are in our eighties and fit but found the access slightly difficult. Had it rained we would have had a problem. not be suitable for people with

Cute and great bach for a short stay
Fantastic communication with the owner and I'd recommend this cute little bach. Perfect for 1-2 people and it had everything I needed for a short stay in Napier with a great city location where you can easily walk to everything if needed. There is a bit of an incline to get to the bach but if this isn't a problem then there's no problem. Thanks for the stay.

Great Location
Slight mix up in which property I had booked but was sorted promptly and communication was almost instant with replies and super helpful host. Loved the little bach I stayed in, very clean and tidy and amenities, wifi, cooking equipment etc supplied as well as extra bedding, towels and pillows. Great views on the balcony and good outdoor seating to enjoy the views and weather. BBQ supplied (didn’t use) but it’s an option for those who stay here. Tv works well and you can plug in Apple box or chrome cast if you bring it with HDMI cable. I just used the freeview channels. Heater and Fan supplied too. Water pressure not that strong but it’s enough to shower and wash hair fine. Loved the time I spent here (4 nights) and location perfect for walks into town and to waterfront, ocean spas, museum, and movies and a longer walk to aquarium. Highly recommend this accomodation, priced okay, but I did think I was upstairs in the flat instead of the Bach so thought I had a great deal for the price if that was so. But after moving downstairs into the Bach I did feel like I might have paid a little too much for the size etc. It comes with a free carpark, which is great as everywhere else you have to pay for a park in town. Once again loved the stay, location and would recommend to others. Just be aware of which part of the house you are booking for the price difference, as I didn’t know.

This property was very small and had all the amenities but the decor was not to our taste. The bed was on a platform which you needed to climb on. The bed linen was of a good quality and very comfy. Also the location of this property is very central.
