We stayed here on 2 separate occasions recently and are likely to return next time we’re in Auckland. With one tiny exception, service was great. The door staff (who look after the valet parking), concierge and reception staff are all fantastic. They remembered I had left a case with them when we came back for the second time, which was lovely touch. The bar staff also great (we didn’t have chance to use the restaurants). Both rooms we had were also fab: we had harbour views each time and they are totally worth it. The view is good for the soul! Location also excellent - really central and it’s easy to access everything. I removed one point because when we were there breakfast seemed understaffed and I got the impression the staff had too much on their plates and couldn’t quite keep all the balls in the air. I suspect that was a temporary problem rather than a typical thing though, so it won’t stop us returning.
