Hotels in Napier

Exploring Napier

Architecture lovers will especially like visiting Napier. Its 1930s Art Deco style architecture is intact, which was the result of a 1931 eartquake that destroyed the majority of the buildings in the city centre. As a result, the reconstruction reflects the architectural style of that time- Stripped Classical, Spanish Mission and Art Deco. Maori motifs were also used to reflect the rich culture of New Zealand. Besides the city centre, visitors will also enjoy exploring the beautiful vineyards of the region.
