New Zealand Portrait Gallery Tours and Activities

Highly recommend. I extended my stay as these apartments were perfect for my trip. I booked a one bedroom apartment. It was very warm in winter, decent kitchen (including stovetop), washer and dryer, great location to walk every where. Car parking is extra $ and uses a car stacker. The staff - from front desk through to cleaners - were so helpful and friendly. My room was on the back, so noise wasn’t bad and it seems a new build so sound proofed. Garbage collectors came in the morning - but thats common for being right in the city.

This hotel is down an alleyway surrounded by bars- please keep this in mind if you are a solo female traveller. The location is great, close to Cuba street and Te Papa. The only downside of being in this area is the bars surrounding this hotel, as it is quite noisy at night. It doesn’t attract the nicest people to the alley. This hotel has no physical reception, so felt like there wasn’t anywhere we could go to ask questions or request more towels etc. The restaurant below the hotel is very good- however the smell of food did woft into our room. We liked the decor, and the shower was fantastic! We liked how they embraced the heritage of the building through the artwork and exposed walls.
