This is the second time I stayed here and I will definitely return. The views of the harbor are unparalleled. The hotel is conveniently located for easy access to the more popular cultural sites. Definitely a keeper.

On arrival from the cruise dock, we expected to have to store our luggage till check in. Our room was already available, which was great. The room was spacious and well equipped. The bed was a bit too soft for my husband. This was rectified within hours of him mentioning it. The restaurant was great and staff throughout the property were courteous and helpful. Our only issue was the touch pad controlling lights, aircon and window blinds. Maybe our age was the problem, as we found ourselves...

We love escaping here from the main island and city life. We are always well looked after and spoiled with good coffee and food. We rest well their amazing beds and we find ourselves recharged after just one night. We recommend at least staying 2-3 nights to rejuvenate properly. There are a lot of hiking opportunities and directly across the beach. You are in the central part of the island so if you want nightlife on a Saturday night it is all withing walking distance. We look forward to...

Lovely new hotel centrally located in Auckland CBD. Nice views of the harbour and well appointed room with a super comfy bed.
Nice welcome on arrival from Jameica on the front desk and great service from Thea in the Hotel Restuarant. Excellent food ,good portions and obviously cooked by a chef as opposed to a Cook.
We’ve tried a number of Auckland CBD hotels and this one is our go - to.

The hotel itself was absolutely lovely and very comfortable. Just be aware that there are extensive roadworks in Auckland and Uber drivers may feel uncomfortable driving directly to the hotel.

This has become my regular Hotel during my bi-annual trip to Auckland. The rooms are spacious and well-appointed. I love the location and the dining options, which are close to Britomart.
My only minor complaint is that I request a room overlooking Beach Rd however I am always directed to the back of the Hotel overlooking ugly buildings. But overall this is a good Hotel in a prime location.

Almost don’t have the words for how outstanding this stay was. It far exceeded my expectations. For an accommodation offering of theme, everything about this place oozes class and sophistication. The refurbishment is respectful of the history but modern and appropriate for today. The attention to detail cannot go unnoticed and there are discoveries to be found everywhere. Of particular note, the bed is so comfortable and the linen and pillows are of very good quality. The toiletries provided are...
