McHardy Lodge

Such a beautiful historic hospital, home, hotel, in excellent condition! Yvonne was a lovely host and so welcoming. The view from the porch was spectacular. McHardy Lodge is situated atop a hill and provides a quiet, peaceful retreat. The homemade breakfast (asked Yvonne for the omelette) was exceptional. I would highly recommend and would most definitely stay again.

Such a beautiful historic home! Yvonne was a lovely host and so welcoming. The view from the porch was spectacular. The home was immaculate and quite comfortable. McHardy Lodge is situated atop a hill and provides a quiet, peaceful retreat. Worked great for couples with plenty of privacy. I would highly recommend and would most definitely stay again.

My family of 4 stayed at Mchardy Lodge for 2 nights in Feb 2024. Yvonne is very friendly and an amazing host. The lodge is absolutely stunning, beautiful view and extremely clean. The cooked breakfast was very delicious especially the Fluffy omelette. Special thanks to Yvonne for going all the way to help me find my phone I left in the car of a wine tour. Highly recommend for anyone visiting Napier!

Lovely property and host. Thank you, Yvonne, for all your recommendations! She recommended to stop on Lake Taupo on our way to Rotorua and boy was she right!! A beautiful lake that is not miss for sure. The house was extremely clean and we were served a delicious breakfast in a room with an amazing view.

We stayed in this hotel during two nights when travelling through New Zealand. The hotel is looking over Napier, beautiful view during breakfast. Walking down in itself is an experience, walking up even more (if you have the courage). Every corner of this large lodge breaths history and is unique, I believe not one piece of furniture is the same. Rooms and lodge very tidy, very spacious and well kept. Many common areas like the porch(es) garden, large library, kitchen…. Breakfast is made to order and of good homemade quality and good portions. Welcome with pot of coffee or tea and home made cookies, much appreciated. The host is very charming and knowledgeable about the history of the house, New-Zealand, the world and also the weather forecast :-) we liked the conversations we had with her. Only one “remark”: the wild birds can be noisy in the morning ;-) one specific one sang it’s song every morning around 6 LOL I can definitely recommend this lodge when in Napier and want to enjoy a more quiet location rather than the city center.
