Located in Eastbourne Street, Quest Hastings is a two-minute walk from the recently upgraded and re-opened Toi Toi Hawkes Bay and Events centre; a venue that can accommodate up to 1,000 visitors and will host conferences, business events, theatre and performing arts.
The new purpose-built Quest includes 35 apartments, a mixture of studios and one and two-bedroom apartments. All rooms, come with kitchens, laundries and everything to make each stay, short or long, a comfortable one, with the larger one- and two-bedroom apartments perfect for that extended stay. Guests will also enjoy access to the usual Quest ‘extras’ being breakfast packs, a pantry shop for the longer stay guest and of course local restaurant chargebacks so you only have one bill at the end of your stay. As with all newly built Quest properties, there will be EV charging capability and mobile keys to access rooms through the Quest app.
Franchise Director Scott Bellingham has a long history with Quest Apartment Hotels starting in general management positions in Melbourne, Townsville & Ipswich in Australia before moving to Wellington where he managed Quest Wellington for 8 years before leaping at the opportunity to bring Quest to Hastings.
“We are really looking forward to heading up to Hastings, and especially that first day of business. This will be my first purpose-built Quest property, and to say that I am excited is an understatement” says Scott. We are very optimistic of the property being successful from opening and Sonia and I are excited by the move and the progressive nature of local business and government”
Scott recognises the importance of building and maintaining relationships locally to ensure that Quest Hastings is recommended as the preferred option to host business associates, friends and family visiting the region.
“I believe that like most of regional New Zealand, Hastings is a large village, with a ‘everyone knows everyone’ vibe and it will be a high priority for us to meet and engage with the local community”.
Quest Hastings is scheduled to open in June 2023. An opening early bird room rate will be offered to guests staying in the brand-new property during the first two months.
