Modern, attractive accommodation in an excellent location right next to the sea. Lovely views and fast access to walking/cycling trails. Rooms are clean and attractive. All have a balcony. We did not eat at the hotel as there are many good, local options. It is a good price point and works well for visiting area attractions if you have a car.

Our room was nice, there was not enough toilet paper or towels, as well as needing to ask for more, the book with instructions was hard to read due to being old and it would be more convenient if the room had a sink. Also the sliding door in the bedroom was covered in seagull poo, didn’t make for viewing out, also the guests down below in the restaurant early were extremely loud, difficult to sleep through, overall a good stay

Hi Alana thanks for taking the time to review your stay at our hotel. Sorry to hear about the poop - we do our utmost to ensure they are cleaned for your viewing but sometimes it happens after we have cleaned. Hope to see you again one day. Best regards, team at East Pier Hotel

Second time staying & I cant fault the place. Will be a go to everytime we stay in the Hawke’s Bay now. Love the location, is very handy with a 2 year old, is a safe place away from the road and beach is literally right there.

I thought they had room service. It's not a big deal but we went out for drinks and to watch a game and I didn't have dinner. So when we got back to the room at about 11:00 I thought I could order room service and it's not an option.

A bit of a mixed bag.
We booked a room that was a titled "Family Suite that has 2 bedrooms". It was for 3 of us including my elderly father. The room was not a suite, just 2 adjoining studio rooms with door between and no separate bedrooms. One thing that mostly decides if I like a place or not is the qualify of my sleep. My room my wife & were in, had 2 beds and a total of 8 pillows. These were all very fat pillows & as I would rather have a thinner pillow, (my Father thought the same), it was very uncomfortable trying to get some sleep. The beds are impressively thick, but offer little back support, so my back is suffering. The place has a restaurant & bar, apparently good, but we were shut out of it mid Sunday afternoon for staff training & the restaurant closed to guests for the night, (room service available). If you are running staff session on mixing cocktails & only a couple of guests left in the bar, why not offer a complementary cocktail. On returning to our rooms on day 2 (stayed 2 nights/3 days), found one of our rooms unserviced, they embarrassingly got it serviced, but failed to empty the bathroom rubbish bin. The privacy lock on our bathroom was broken. With no seperate bedrooms, I was unable to sit up late & watch sport on TV as I had hoped. I'm still trying to figure out a snacks charge on my bill which I've paid for. If I stayed there again (probably unlikely) I would just order 2 rooms seperately & get myself the very best room they had for myself & take my own pillow.
