The Rutland Arms Inn
The stay was good and very enjoyable The only downside was very loud music being played somewhere near the Rutland Arms late at night. I rang reception at 12.00 (midnight) but got no answer. I felt very frustrated by this!

Anndion Lodge Motel and Function Centre
The comfort and convenience of our unit, the Garden Suite, was very very much better than its street apeal. My partner has trouble walking, she has had a stroke, but the parking next to the step free food and the very convenient layout and comfort of our unit made our stay a real pleasure.

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. Or, you could stay in Stratford, 55 miles (92 kilometers) to the northwest of Wanganui, where you can choose from the Amity Court Motel and Stratford Heritage Lodge. Should you choose to stay in Stratford, make sure you explore the Victoria Park Memorial and Stratford Golf Course.
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. You'll find Arena Manawatu 40 miles (67 kilometers) to the southeast of Wanganui. Book accommodation not far from the action at the Aubyn Court Spa Motel or the Shadzz Motel & Conference Centre.
Located 2 miles (4 kilometers) from Wanganui's city center is Wanganui Airport. Find a room nearby at Econo Lodge Wanganui or Braemar House - Hostel/Backpacker.
