Whanganui is an ol'River Port town that still carries that ambience. If you were comparing ol'Paddle steamer towns with an Australia vs NZ type contest, you'd have an Ecucha Victoria or Morpeth NSW vs Whanganui match-up.
Whanganui has the ol'Paddle Steamer "Waimere" still in operation & a Waimere Steamer Museum. Don't miss out on the War Memorial Tower & look-out, it's a musta, you can even get an elevator there.
All the shops are here for the gals & of course the wife bought a new dress for the Whanganui Races. We spent 2 nights @ the Riverview Motel in a self contained Garden Unit, serenity abounds at this establishment, it's old but still gold.

Whanganui is a great place to visit.
Whanganui is a great place to visit. Friendly, great vibe, lots to see and do and not very expensive. I have never had a bad coffee there! Saturday market by the river is a must, as are the parks and gardens, a trip on the Waimarie, the tunnel and elevator, arts trail, beaches, bike trails, museum and restaurants. Heritage Weekend and Christmas Boxing Day are REALLY busy with a ton of stuff on. The Boatshed in Aramoho was our favourite restaurant this trip. Only negative in Whanganui is the AWFUL driving - and we are from Auckland!

The history of the city is clearly evident in the retention of a lot of charming century old buildings which have been carefully maintained on the outside with appropriate interior upgrades. A ride on the river steamboat and a unique in-ground lift which takes you from near sea level to the top of a hill suburb are other attractions.

Whanganui has a wealth of history.
Whanganui has a wealth of history. Like many modern day cities/towns around NZ, Whanganui had its hey day at the turn of the 1900s, and as the river became less important for transport and access, the local economy went into decline. However, many aspects of this affluent past have been preserved. Highlights for us included the trip aboard the paddle Steamer (1912 restored) Waimarie, taking the elevator to the top of Durie Hill and climbing the 176 steps to the top of the town's WW1 memorial.
Walking around Majestic Square and the modernist War Memorial Hall, made us feel transported to Brasilia, as this style of architecture was lauded by Brazilian architect Oscar Niemeyer.
We attended The Whanganui Opera House's Repertory Theatre production of Titanic Letters which was a lovely finale to our stay here.

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.
Our stay at Shuringi was simply delightful! Andrew and Penny were the perfect hosts, warmly welcoming us and providing us with an enjoyable and memorable experience. We had originally planned to explore Whanganui during our stay, but were so taken by the stunning views from the property and the delightful company of our hosts, that we ended up spending most of our time at the property. It was an experience that far exceeded our expectations!
We have stayed there several times before because it is quite easy to get into the main street and complete the tasks we were down in Whanganui for. The room was well set up and large. lots of room for bags etc and an excellent spa bath was provided in the room. Bed was very comfortable as was the parking. The heat pump kept the room warm, and the television offered a very full range of channels.
We stayed here because we had never been to Whanganui before so made it a stop over on way to New Plymouth. We researched the accommodation and Braemer came up the right fit for us. Absolutely so happy we did, lovely home and garden with chooks free ranging, and the hosts Alice and Calvyn made us so welcome. We are definitely coming back and we can't rate this place highly enough.
Liked the atmosphere of the English style pub down below the accommodation and we enjoyed dinner in the restaurant. Also a good breakfast was part of the package. Enjoyed an overnight stay in Whanganui on a road trip between Wellington and Auckland and loved the pub!
Lovely host.
Comfortable, clean, and spacious room.
Ideal location as the property has access to a lake, which was a lovely walk.
We have no hesitation in recommending this as a place to stay, and we will definitely book again if we visit Whanganui.
Whanganui Birch Court - Harakeke was the perfect stop and provided a warm welcome. The hosts were gracious and the accommodations were comfortable and inviting. It was an ideal place to relax and unwind during our trip.
Breakfast was very good. We loved your hotel. And next time we visit whanganui, we'll be looking to stay at the Grand hotel. Thankyou so much for our overnight stay. We very much enjoyed it. Thanks. Vee and Harry.x
Spotlessly clean, good soundproofing, well appointed kitchen area and comfortable bed. Short walk to restaurants and sights and friendly , helpful staff. Will be my first choice when I return to Whanganui!
Allie was a wonderful host and made our stay in Whanganui very comfortable. Very comfortable beds. Good size room and in a great location. We'll have no hesitation staying there again.
Their services were truly appreciated and were kind enough to cater to us when we needed something or had questions. Would definitely come back here if we ever in whanganui again.
