“Handy To Everything But Small Rooms”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 January 2012

We wanted a long weekend in Auckland to dine out, catch a show and go over to Waiheke Island for the day. So we booked a double room at City central. Reception staff were pleasant and the foyer had nice decor. The room itself was small with little space and nowhere to sit except on the bed. Everything was very clean and as we were out most of the day the room size didn't bother us too much. Apparently a studio room is more spacious. All in all not too bad for the price we paid knowing that Auckland CBD hotels are dearer.

Room Tip: May pay to have a studio room which has more space.

“When we opened the door we were in fits of laughter...”

Had read reviews of this place on Trip Advisor so had warned my sister that room was possibliy going to be quite small - When we arrived the place looked really nice, central and clean, reception was friendly and check in a breeze.
When we got to the room and opened the door we collapsed in FITS of laugher - so SO small!
We had twin enquite room with tea and coffee making facilities and tv but the room was hilariously small - the gap between the two beds wasn't even as wide as my anorexic sisters calf muscles LOL
Luckily we were only there for two nights and just there for RWC game so wasn't going to be in the room apart from sleeping! Price was great even with inflated pricing due to the games.
I would have no hesitation staying here again for a short stay

Room Tip: Ask for a larger room, we peeked in some of the other rooms on our floor after people had checked ou...

“too small a room”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 October 2011

l would warn you not to book this so called hotel more of a bed sit. We had 4 nights at this place in two diffrent rooms and both were to small.Had to walk over the bed to look out off the window as the only free space we had at the end of the bed was being used by our suit cases.(not enough room to swing a cat).To much noise from outside on most nights was too loud cars tooting horns and drunks shouting in the street. Had the cooked breakfast on morning that came out cold.
The bar was all ways closed but in the gloss it looks like a place to drink and watch games on the tv. Hope this helps you and chose elsewhere.
