Surrounded by native bush, hammered by the Tasman Sea and divided by the Buller River, Westport is a true place of inspiration. Westport was first a gold town and then a coal town, with New Zealand's only bituminous coal mine still operating here. Nowadays Westport is known for its almost limitless range of adventure activities, awesome scenery and local arts.

The Westport Motor Hotel meets everyone's needs, whether it be bus tours, business people or locals, with its friendly staff, superb service, delightful decor and surroundings, and award-winning gardens.

Westport Motor Hotel is situated on Palmerston Street, next to the main bus depot in town and close to the main business area.
