We had a great experience at the Atura and would like to give a special thanks to the staff for letting us keep our luggage with them after checkout since our car had been compromised in Taupo on the trip down. Much appreciated from both of us.

Room poorly serviced. Bed poorly made. There wasnt even a shower mat. Very mean with tea and coffee choices. TV poorly set up requiring tuning and access selection for HDMI everytime you turned it on. For $28 the parking access is poor which wasnt charged on our previous visit.

I am a researcher, so the property is very convenient to the research centres that I have to use: Alexander Turnbull; The National Archives and the Parliamentary Library. The reception staff were efficient and personable. They upgraded my room to one better suited to my needs: I am a single traveller and they moved me from a double bed unit (ordered online) to a single bedroom. They carefully explained the "Going Green" option, (which I did). The room was spacious with nice vistas of the streets and green belt. the facilities were excellent: Writing desk, iron and iron board, wardrobe, spacious shower and toilet. I went for the green option (3 nights), so cannot comment on the cleaning of the room. I do wish , however, that the coffee machine came with instructions, but I worked it out after two attempts. The wifi is excellent, which is essential for my purposes. I did eat in and the restaurant staff were always accomodating, and the food was more than acceptable. There is a supermarket nearby should you want to prepare your own food. Overall, my stay at Atura was an excellent experience. I will be staying with them again.
