Richmond Guest House is a very well managed and comfortable lodging. The rooms are well maintained, warm, and clean and tidy. As are the kitchen and lounge areas. The rates are very reasonable too. John is a neat guy who enjoys a good yarn and has a great sense of humour. I live in the Manawatu and work in Wellington... More

Firstly, when I booked by phone and asked a couple of questions, John kept saying "you obviously haven’t travelled very much!" which was a bit rude given he hadn’t met me yet. Despite this I booked 4 nights. On the first morning I was making a cup of tea with my own teabag and John demanded I move my stuff... More

I have stayed at the Richmond Guest House several times over the last two years - most recently in April. It is absolutely the best deal around and having breakfast included in the price is a real bonus (and is served just like at your favourite Nana’s with a glass of juice and choice of cereals followed by little bowls...
