Beautiful hotel close to the CBD
I LOVED staying here! I travel to Auckland on business about once a year, and wanted to see another side of the city beyond the downtown. Ponsonby is a beautiful neighborhood that's only a few minutes' car ride from the business district of Auckland, so a great place to stay for some variety, and this hotel is so gorgeous and so full of little extras and attentions that I will DEFINITELY be returning there next year. Thank you so much for creating such a lovely place to be!

Cute hotel with friendly service. Essentially a classic bed and breakfast. Great location with all of the Ponsonby trendy shops on the doorstep and only a short walk to the CBD and k-rd bars/restaurants.
