We booked a last minute room for our 12 year anniversary and the kids came with us and we were blown away. Rooms were beautiful, spotless and had everything we needed. The staff were incredibly helpful and even delivered an anniversary surprise to our room. We can’t fault it! Thank you for such a wonderful stay

Beautiful, clean, comfortable and modern room and hotel. Staff went above and beyond the call to be welcoming and helpful (special shout out to Georgia). One of the best hotel breakfast buffets I have seen anywhere. I would absolutely stay here again the next time I'm in Auckland.

We really enjoyed our stay. We booked a king suite and it was wonderful—so much space, great water pressure, comfortable bed and pillows, and such a friendly and welcoming staff. Loved the view and so quiet. Plus very walkable to the viaduct and eateries. Would definitely stay here again.
