Just a short walk from the bay and shops. Host Frank was very welcoming and friendly and quickly fixed a problem with our room. Good quality furnishings, kitchen and very clean and warm. Agree with other reviews, so a good choice. We only stayed a night but Wrights would be a good option for longer stays. Paraparaumu is a lovely town; we loved the Marine Parade Eatery for coffee too.

We stayed in a family room. It was spotlessly clean and had everything we needed to make a quick dinner and breakfast. The staff were really friendly. Beds were comfortable and location perfect. I’ve stayed in a lot of motels and was highly impressed by Wrights.

We were disappointed. It was dark, lacked cleaning, not well appointed. Not soundproof rooms. Quite expensive for what was provided.

Generally clean and comfortable, the shower was great, good pressure. Bed was very comfy. thank you, we did not appreciate garden chairs in living room, a couch, like in the photos, would have been appreciated . All the taps leaked, maybe a bit of maintenance sometime. The outside area was unkept as was the "Courtyard" from the room. maybe a broom and water now and again, and some gardening once in a while. Little issues that make a difference. But overall, a good stay, staff were very pleasant and helpful.
