The accommodation was surprisingly good for the price and location. The receptionist was very accommodating and waited for me until I arrived before she called it a day. I liked the common bathroom outside the main house as it was really warm and spacious.

Right next to the river, great for walks, what more can you ask for, Everything a solo traveler needs is there. About 15mins walk to town centre. Friendly host Alice and dog Dash.

Stayed here for the night as it was one of the cheapest option. Private twin room with shared toilet. The kitchen is also well equipped. For the area I was staying in, total of 2 toilets with shower facilities.

I stayed here for one night while sightseeing in Wanganui. The facilities were very clean and I was able to use the kitchen and bathroom comfortably. The room was warm and comfortable. The location was great, right on the Wanganui River.

We're definitely not youthful but felt very much at home in Braemar House. We stayed in the B and B, finding it very comfortable, quiet, and with lovely touches - fluffy bathrobes and towels, a door onto the verandah, quiet, chocolates on the pillow, a basin in the room with bathroom across the hall - so many caring things. The shared kitchen is very well stocked with tools and pots, very clean and all we needed to prepare a meal. Calvyn and Alice are the nicest of hosts, very helpful and cheerful. We'll be back, and in the meantime are telling others about it. There is a wonderful cafe around the corner - The Yellow House. Great coffee and meals.

Welcoming hosts, beautiful tidy clean organized facilities, warm room, comfy bed, street parking (camera monitored). I stayed in youth hostel part out back, but there's also a B&B in the main building. Would definitelt stay here again.
