Room was clean, pleasant and spacious, although had a poor view out the back of the hotel and didn’t let much light in. For the price, it was nothing particularly special for a place promoted as a 5 star hotel.

This is a newer property and it has all the features and amenities expected for a comfortable and restful stay. For example the bathroom lighting and mirrors have multiple settings, and outlets included USB and USBC plugs. Easy to find and parking is simple. It's a 10-15 minute walk to the city center, but there are plenty of restaurants within a 5 minute walk including Vics across the street. The city bus also goes by as well - easy to use the system, but you need cash if you don't have a bus card, and they give change. Definitely recommend and would stay there again!

Highly recommend The Mayfair

The nicest staff ever. This place was adorable (not too crazy about the black walls in the room) but other than that the hotel was amazing! Everything we needed, great location, staff was the friendliest we encountered on our month long trip in NZ.
