This hotel is located at the Auckland viaduct, I had a marina view room , which was wonderful. The hotel was not noisy, the location was great and the staff very professional. There are many restaurants and bars along the waterside (viaduct), There was also free wifi which we used often.

Pure luxury! If you want to be totally spoilt do try the Sofitel Auckland. The rooms are spacious, the bed devine. We enjoyed the full breakfast at Lava dining. The decor is stunning. It is conveniently situated in the viaduct. Short walk to many restuarants and bars.

We so enjoyed our stay. The staff, food and atmosphere were outstanding. We were in the heart of things if we had wanted to venture out but the hotel offered us all we required for a relaxing stay. It made a special occasion for us even more special. Thank you

This Hotel was easy to find and for our purposes well located. on arrival service was efficient and prompt, the room better than expected.
