Easy walk to town. Not impressed by dated rooms and poor staffing ratio at breakfast service to busy to serve coffee to guests and therefore we went down the road to a delightful modern cafe.conference facilities ok.

I was there on a business trip. The hotel is quite old now, with the bathrooms very outdated. However it is clean and the bed is very comfortable. The staff are helpful and the dinner at the hotel was ery good. However the breakfast selection was one of the not good. The big commerial size plastic bottle of Orange Juice... More

We stayed here on a recent trip to Wanganui to do some work and took our kids since it was school holiday time. As mentioned previously this place is - to be polite - a "retro" establishment! It has not had much work done to it for decades. Having said that though, it was clean and the beds were comfortable... More

I stayed here one night as part of a tour group traveling around the North Island. The Collegiate is in a nice, quiet part of Wanganui which means a bit of a walk if you don't have a car. The room was clean and comfortable. Overall, the Collegiate is an average sort of place to stay - nothing remarkable but... More

Way overpriced for an outdated one bedroom room. Old furniture, fittings, kitchen. good location but they need to spend some money on it to be charging such outrageous rates. Do not reccomend.

The hotel is seriously dated, they havn't spent any money on it since the 70's from what I can tell. Needs a refurb desperately. Hurry up and get satellite too, the TV reception is terrible, some channels you can't even watch. Restaurant is quite nice though. Not much to choose from in Wanganui, it is bit if a hole though...

We stayed here for only 1 night, thankfully. We were traveling with a 14 month old who was still crawling and not walking. After 5 minutes of crawling around, her hands, knees and toes were black from the carpet. It was disgusting. I did not want her touching anything. We thought we would get a 1 bedroom room for the...

Stay here regularly and at similar places in other main centres. It's not the newest place on the block the rooms are little dated 70's style, however the Collegiate compares very well in every other way. It is well located with clean good sized rooms. The staff are always friendly. One big attraction is the good well priced meals. At... More

We have stayed at the Collegiate before, changing to the Collegiate after a bad experience at another Wanganui Motel. The Collegiate is definately dated, but that is more than made up for by the execllent service from the staff and the convenience of having a Restaurant on the premises and being very close to town. We used the Restaurant and... More

Pleasant staff, fairly central location, very clean... everything you want in an overnight stop? Possibly, unless modernity is on your list of 'must haves'. The bedrooms are from a 1950's timewarp, offering a rather similar feel to a pre-refurb Butlins holiday camp chalet. We chose that hotel because it has large family rooms. But would we return... probably not.
