    We only stayed here for 1 night, as we didn't have time, even so everything was fantastic. The breakfast was warm with cappuccinos, and the restaurant was wonderful. The location was prime and best possible, for example, Stay was not very far from the hotel. You could walk to a shopping centre and a market.

    Recently renovated and well-maintained hotel, staff always amazingly helpful. Prime and best possible location for our visit to Māori galleries not very far from the venue. Found in a central area not far from very convenient in terms of access to transport, and a nice restaurant.

    Many things to mention - everything was spotlessly clean, tasty food, bright views. The location was prime and best possible, at a walking distance from Avon River. It was located in a central area near the Town Hall and all the major shopping areas and restaurants, a cosy base for me.

    Units with very large and comfortable beds. Private parking, very good service. No charge for wake up calls and ironing too. Great location close to all major attractions and many shops and restaurants, and the restaurant, few metres away from a pedestrian mall. Also, to the OGB which is a great pub...

    Good hot breakfast, it was included. The room was brand-new & compact with comfy bed, great view, as example.

    The room had depressing views.

    Hot breakfast with a lot of options, newly remodelled and fairly clean place. Fantastic, amazing location in the restaurant on the 5th January 2019 for dinner. So close to central city shops or riverside restaurants in less than five minutes as well as Botanic gardens and fabulous rose gardens.

    The location of the hotel couldn't be any better! It's right in the heart of the city, close to all the main attractions and within walking distance to everything. The staff at the hotel were incredibly friendly and attentive, providing excellent service throughout our stay. We were also impressed with the valet parking service, which made our stay even more convenient.

    There were a couple of minor downsides to our stay. the room lacked control switches, which made it a bit challenging to adjust the temperature and lighting to our liking.
