Beautiful Hotel

5.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 19 Feb 2023
Unfortunately, we only had one night here. The hostess was incredible friendly and our room was very modern and extremely clean. It is about a 10 minute walk into the heart of downtown and a number of restaurants. The rooms are a bit small, but have great furnishings.

A fabulous experience, the quality of the accommodation is excellent – especially the one bed apt we stayed in, which comes with Netflix on a wide TV.

However, it’s the helpfulness and kindness of Cherie which really sets this apart, she was so helpful, providing all sorts of cables and adapters that I needed.

We were sad to leave, it was a great stay.

Highly recommended.

Rooms at Sails were lovely - we had a one bedroom for couple nights then an executive suite. Spotless, roomy and very well equipped. Our hosts were fabulous too, extrememly helpful.
Can't give it five stars because its on a noisy corner and the we found the traffic noise intrusive. Didn't disturb our sleep as the traffic dies down overnight but gets going around 7am. So if you are noise senstive this is not the hotel for you. Otherwise no hesitation.

Room tip: Dont stay in Room 103 if you are noise sensitive - its right on the corner and gets noise from both roads.

We booked a one bedroom unit at Sails on a road trip around NZ, and were so pleased we did. Gorgeous, well appointed modern unit with big plush lounge/ kitchen, beautiful separate bedroom and a luxurious bathroom. The manager was a delight, welcoming us and taking great pride in her lovely facilities. A substantial continental breakfast was reasonably priced. We only wished we could have stayed longer! Highly recommended.

I cannot fault the Sails. The room was well appointed, immaculate, clean and really well designed - especially the kitchenette that had everything you could want.

The couple running the place couldn’t have been more helpful. Fully recommend

Great location but most important, fantastic rooms (not only were they spotless they are so well designed, particularly the kitchenette), supernice staff, and a fantastic breakfast you can get delivered to your room in the morning. We could not fault the stay. Highly recommended
