I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The twin beds were super comfy and the facilities were great, but I felt there weren't enough amenities for four adults. The service was top-notch, especially the lovely receptionist from Mumbai. The location was convenient, although a bit uphill from the Wharf area. The dining experience, unfortunately, lacked variety and the basic offerings weren't too exciting.

This hotel is an excellent choice for travelers looking for a comfortable stay in the heart of Auckland.

The service provided is top-notch, with a truly hospitable staff, notably the receptionist from Mumbai. While the location is central, it's worth noting that the hotel is situated on a steep hill that may pose challenges for guests with mobility issues. Dining options are basic but included, and overall, the facilities are well-maintained and offer good value for money.
