Stayed at the hotel in March 2024 just for a night and its pretty decent. Room was basic but beds were confortable. Evening meal in hotel restaurant 'The Cut' decent if bit expensive. Breakfest was good had nice selection but wasnt hot just warm. Staff were great nice and friendly. Deposit of $100 needed when arriving by the way in case of breakages

Strategic hotel to book to watch the NYE fireworks. We stayed 2 nights in our room facing the Skytower. Staff was friendly. Check in was smooth and room was clean and tidy. We enjoyed our stay. Highly recommended!

Clean and tidy Very welcoming staff at reception - excellent customer service. Only feedback is around the restaurant - very expensive for what you receive - didn’t realise until i ordered that the steak did not come with sides and that these were separately priced. I then had to send the side back as it was cold! $63 for 1 main and a soft drink - can get exactly the same meal at a much better quality for a lesser price in my hometown. Quite disappointing.

I was lucky to receive an upgrade and had a very big suite. This included a lounge area, work desk, bedroom separated by a 3/4 wall, walk in wardrobe and a double bathroom with shower. This had everything you need for a business trip and a good night's sleep. Proper milk was included in the fridge (not the long life stuff) and the bed wasn't made from 2 singles joined together like most places, so no sagging in the middle.

The hotel was generally very quiet, especially at night despite there being quite a few large groups of tourists. The beds were very comfortable and I’m a hard person to please with hotel beds. It was a very good hotel for us, a couple in our late sixties. As we have stayed in Auckland before we were happy with the location. If you do stay in Auckland for a few days I recommend you use the buses. Go to Britomart station to get advice and the HOP card. Breakfasts were fine if a bit chaotic as the groups staying got up early for breakfast. Service couldn’t keep up sometimes clearing tables or re stocking food items. You do need more than 2 coffee machines though, the queues foe coffee/tea/chocolate were the longest.

Located on Federal St right in the CBD and in easy walking access of the harbour. Cost for a taxi from the airport was NZD110. The check-in process was simple and easy. The rooms are a reasonable size for two people. The services were very good - restaurant, room service, in-room facilities. Had the most comfortable night's sleep for a long time. Price was reasonable as compared to the competition.

I was surprised that the hotel was tucked in a small city area even though it is close to skytower. The lift was very slow and it happened one morning that we had to walk down from 10th floor to catch our tour when all the lifts were broken. We were compensated with buffet breakfast which normally costs around $30 per person. However, the breakfast quality was very disappointing. They charge you extra if you want egg omelette! The room however was clean and comfortable.

Room 1203 was quiet except for lift close by - a few noisy guests at night. Bed was comfortable, bathroom good. Views were good. Room was a hit tired overall. Refurb would imprive it. Bottled water would be good to have in fridge. Reception staff were excellent.
