10/10 Exceptional

Nice hotel. This part of Auckland is a bit rough at night, but very convenient and pleasant during the day
Aleksandr, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Fantastic hotel, can't fault it. Highly recommend

Excellent modern hotel with great facilities. Handy location near commercial bay restaurants/shops and the viaduct/ferry terminal. The rooms were large, comfortable, modern and clean. Rooftop bar is epic if you want a cocktail and enjoy the harbour views. Long indoor pool, jacuzzi spa, gym and even a sauna was a nice surprise. Would definitely stay here again.

Fantastic hotel bit quirky

Fantastic hotel we booked four rooms for two couples two children and an infant and a parent. The rooms were fantastic enjoyed all the services including the pool buffet breakfast. Our only complaint was the green lights in the room are a little bit of a night.

10/10 Exceptional

Beautiful, yet way too short

We stayed only one night and could not use all the great amenities. Dinner at the hotel was great. The room was spacious, clean, and very nicely designed. The hotel had a technical issue which could not be fixed during our stay and affected all rooms. The management however compensated us in a great and interesting way which was an amazing way to apologize for the inconvenience. Will we come back? Definitely! We still need to ise the spa, the pool, the gym, and many more amenities.

Rory, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We stayed with our newborn and found it very easy going and the staff were really sweet and accommodating. Loved the King Studio room! It was spacious and felt luxurious with lots of design touches. I wouldn't say it was particularly quiet with loud music from the bars and sirens on a Saturday night, but didn't bother us. The restaurant food and service was great, but would suggest they lower the lights for more ambiance?
Michelle, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Easy walking distance to spark arena!
John, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Was a terrible experience, the valet crashed our vehicle and the manager refused to be of any help, there was no compensation or any responsibility from their behalf, he was aggressive in his handling of the situation and the staff were very unhappy. Definitely do not recommend!!
Sarah, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Pool/spa and rooftop bar are great. Rooms on level 2 are a bit noisy (traffic on custom st). Best to be on higher levels.
