Excellent friendly, informative and efficient welcome at reception. Stunning modern, large, well-equipped and very comfortable room. Dinner in the hotel restaurant was good, with excellent service. Parking was free and secure, right beside the hotel. Breakfast room was lovely - lots of space and at 7.45am very quiet. Great breakfast selection, high quality and tasty options. Recommend the banana bread!

A beautifully presented hotel. Very clean and modern. The staff were very friendly and helpful. We had such a wonderful stay. The pool was an added bonus as were the delicious cookies. Great location for us as we had an event on in South Auckland.

Spent the last night of our north island road trip here prior to flight home. Warm cookie at check in. Rooms clean and comfortable. Good drinks at bar. Had one complaint that upon getting e receipt after check out, they charged us $10 for breakfast (we got free continental breakfast with gold status and did NOT upgrade to full so unsure of charge). Check bill but otherwise nice.

We had an incredibly nice stay at this hotel. We stayed here for two nights after cruising for 22 days. The rooms are nicely furnished. It’s new too. We were warmly greeted when we arrived, and every time we returned. The warm cookies were appreciated! We ate two meals in the bar, and they were bot( yummy.
Room tip: Ample free parking. The breakfast offerings are nice too.
