Lovely room, welcoming staff.
We ate in the pub in the evening as well as the continental breakfast. Both were delicious with good portions.
Parking was easy once we’d located the car park!
Wouldn’t hesitate to return.

The Rutland Arms is great, central and easy to walk
The rooms was a good size and clean.
However no comfortable chairs in the room, water pressure in the shower was terrible, the bed was uncomfortable and the pillows were not very comfortable

The rooms met the old-world charm expected of a hotel of its age. The food and staff were both fantastic & welcoming, with the added advantage of booking meals & drinks to my room. Recommended as the place to stay in Wanganui.

Rooms are very spacious and extremely well decorated. No lift but the barman assisted us with luggage. The room attendant is 75 but she is an absolute gem and very thorough with the room makeup. Bar downstairs is not noisy and has great food BUT I didn’t like the vanilla rice pudding.
