Whanganui Hotel & Travel Guide

If you have no idea how to begin planning your North Island break, relax, because there is a great range of perfect apartment options in Wanganui. Travelocity is where the modern traveler goes to find 27 places to base yourself within a 6-mile (10-kilometer) distance of Wanganui's town center.

Wanganui won't feel so far from home thanks to all these modern rooms, including the Aotea Motor Lodge and Quality Inn Collegiate.

0.6 miles (0.9 kilometers) from the town center of Wanganui, you will come across the 151 on London Motel. Alternatively, the Asure Cooks Gardens Motor Lodge can be found about 0.4 miles (0.7 kilometers) away. Another two hotel and apartment options in the vicinity include the Kingsgate Hotel The Avenue Wanganui and the Kings Court Motel.

Making plans to travel a little bit out of the center? North Island lays claim to many attractions worth seeing. North Island is marked by beaches, coastal plains, forests and rivers. The most popular traveler sites include art museums and nature museums. In this part of New Zealand travelers may also try their hand at snowboarding, skiing and tobogganing.

Looking for more to do? You could spend a few hours discovering Tawhiti Museum and King Edward Park, which can be found in Hawera, 45 miles (74 kilometers) northwest of Wanganui. The Tairoa Lodge & Cottage and Hawera Central Motor Lodge are just some examples of the Travelocity-listed apartment and hotel alternatives in Hawera.

Before your Wanganui trip draws to a close, why not spend an afternoon experiencing the high energy with North Island supporters at a community game.
