Reviews and Ratings
I had a pleasant stay at this hotel, which boasts a great location right in the heart of the city, making it super easy to explore. The rooms I stayed in were comfortable and had a nice view, but they were a bit on the smaller side, which might not suit everyone. The service from the staff was fantastic; they were really friendly and willing to help. While the dining options were decent, I think there could have been a little more variety to choose from. Overall, the hotel is good value for money, but it’s not without its minor flaws.

The hotel had a great, welcoming atmosphere and the staff was extremely friendly and helpful. The rooms, however, were smaller than what I experienced at other places in New Zealand and had a less than ideal view. The dining experience had room for improvement, and while the facilities met my needs, they weren’t outstanding. Overall, the value for money felt a bit off, considering the size of the rooms compared to the price.
