Good location. The hygiene situation is very average. There were blood stains on our pillows that hadn't been washed off, and there were also blood stains on the outside of the washbasin in the bathroom. The bathroom stuff is relatively basic, not quite like it will only open in 2023

Worse hotel ever in New Zealand
The hotel was terrible. We had problems checking in as they did not have any records of our checkin. We have to come back to the hotel after our meals and we had to drive to and fro. The bed is like a jigsaw puzzle and it is too soft. There is basically no make up of rooms. We asked for make up of rooms but the bed is undone, there is no replacement of towers and worse of all, they replace wrongly the shampoo with bathing liquids.

Great location
Place was really clean and tidy. Staff were helpful, but didn’t seem sure about where things were eg towels. Parking was also an issue at nighttime. Restaurant seemed closed too. Overall a good stay, comfortable and clean Easy walkable distance to the skyline too! 15 min drive to every location you would want to go

Put your PHONE DOWN and get your EYES OFF the computer to welcome people and just ask guests if they are ok as they walk past your desk. The main front door was locked for a period of time leaving two of us waiting outside. It put the person at reception out when I asked if the food I paid for from the restaurant could be brought up to my room. Where is your manaakitanga (hospitality)? This was my 4th stay and sadly; I won't be going back :(

We stayed for 2 nights and our stay was included with breakfast. Checked in late at around 9pm. I was asked to pay $50 deposit at the time of check in despite paying in full for the total stay via credit card at the time of check in. I was advised that $50 will be refunded to you on the day of check out. It has been more than 48 hours and i still have not received refund. By the way i was never informed at the time of booking that they do charge deposit as well. On Saturday morning we were given buffet breakfast which was fine. We were advised that on Sunday morning the breakfast will be anything from their menu. When we went for a breakfast on Sunday we got told that we can only order two items from the menu as they can’t make anything else. Very poor communication and coordination. We were only allowed to choose from bacon and egg and omelet. My wife was a vegetarian and there were no options from their menu that we were allowed to order despite paying extra for the breakfast. We requested the staff that if we could do few hours late check out as it was a Sunday and since we did do late check in, we were hoping that they can understand us. But, no, instead they asked us to pay extra money for 2 hours of late check out. Upon requesting few times to try and understand our situation they kept not listening to us and said my boss said to charge. The front staff has language barrier and difficult to understand customers point of view. I think their hotel is 1 star. Avoid it.
