Welcome to the traditional charm of the thoroughly modern Accommodation Russell & Hotels. Located in the Bay of Islands, Russell (Kororareke) was the first capital of New Zealand. Only 3 hours drive from Auckland, Russell has always been a focal point in the bay.The historic township of Russell can be accessed
by road, but it’s easier to get there by
catching a ferry in Paihia. During the time of
whalers and traders, Russell was known as ‘the
hell hole of the Pacific’; later it became
the first capital of New Zealand. Today it’s
a holiday town, with plenty of shops, restaurants
and bars. To learn more about Russell’s
colourful past, visit Pompallier House and the
museum. Christ Church still bears battle scars
from the Maori wars. At the wharf you can catch
a game fishing boat to hunt for marlin, tuna,
broad bill and shark. Nearby Long Beach is a nice
place for a swim. Functional facts: Approx. population
1140, information centre, ferry service to/from
Paihia, vehicular ferry to/from Opua.
