A vibrant boutique hotel experience in the heart of Auckland City's fashion and business precincts; the Hotel DeBrett experience is like no other in New Zealand. Hotel DeBrett's point of difference is it's emphasis on funky design, a warm and welcoming environment with careful attention to detail and personal service. All of the 25 rooms and suites are individually designed, have their own distinctive style and personality and are complimented with eclectic furniture. The dcor is a celebration of contemporary New Zealand art and design, with hints of the hotel's art deco past. Luxurious beds feature hand screen printed throws, 100% cotton bed linen and goose down mattress comfort layer; probably the most comfortable beds in Auckland! Bathrooms feature stand alone showers with both rainhead and slide shower heads, most including divinely deep bath. Enjoy salon quality dryers, underfloor heating, magnifying mirrors, mirror demisters and both velvet and toweling robes. The central glass-roofed atrium provides stunning public space with highly-acclaimed 'Kitchen' restaurant, courtyard and the famous 'Housebar'. Guests have exclusive use of a sumptuous drawing room complete with library and honesty bar - a perfect place to mix and mingle over a pre-dinner hosted drink, complementary with your tariff as is a continental breakfast. Hotel Debrett is a short walk from the restaurants and bars of Viaduct Harbour, the Sky Tower, and the Ferry Building. It is surrounded by art galleries, theatres and the Auckland Art Gallery and is within easy reach of the Auckland Museum and the shopping and restaurants of Parnell and Ponsonby. Hotel DeBrett has won awards for design and service including the "New Zealand Architecture Award for Heritage and Conservation" and our restaurant, 'Kitchen', was awarded "2009 Metro Best New Restaurant" Included in your stay: + Complementary continental breakfast + Complementary pre-dinner drink in the drawing room between 6.30 and 7pm + Free wireless broadband (up to 2 MBps) + Free wired broadband (10 MBps) + Free local calls

Great Boutique Hotel

Great location, staff could not do enough for us, average continental breakfast, heated bathroom floor, ultramodern designed rooms. Minimal closet space. Be prepared for high prices in New Zealand.

Really amazing hotel

This hotel is ideally situated in downtown Auckland. Transport is extremely easy from this location. The hotel has been designed perfectly and was extraordinarily comfortable. The staff was warm and gracious throughout my stay. The complimentary continental breakfast was delicious and included a variety of items. I would not stay anywhere else in Auckland.

Atomic Age Class

If you enjoy mid-century modern decor you will love this place. Room was great and the bathroom glorious. The welcome Cocktail and the Continental Breakfast were very nice. Looks to be a very well managed business in a great location.

This Hotel is a great funky alternative

This Hotel is a great funky alternative to those 5 star anonymous chain places. The staff are ultra friendly, our room was luxurious and spacious with double glazed windows for whisper quiet sleeping. The bar and visitors room is classy and funky and full of 50's style furniture and nick nacks, sculptures etc. This is a place to go if you like to stay somewhere different, luxurious and funky. Couldnt really fault it .
