SkyCity Hotel
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, albeit too short! We had the suite which not only had the 2 beds we hoped for, but a wonderful living space and a huge bathroom! The bathrobes and slippers were the icing on the cake! Thanks for wonderful service and accommodation - we highly recommend!
