An outstanding hotel in a great location. Our suite was large and comfortable with a great bathroom and a separate guest bathroom. Furnishings were carefully chosen and are excellent. The restaurant serves a full breakfast. One complaint: WiFi was not reliable and was unavailable for more than 18 hours.

We booked this hotel for our two nights in Aukland after a cruise. Nice hotel with character and helpful staff. It was easy to walk to the waterfront, maybe ten minutes. We arrived at the hotel with our luggage by 9am and the hotel was glad to hold our luggage until check in time. On our day of departure we had an evening flight hime and the hotel again was glad to hold our luggage until we were ready to go to the airport. We would stay here again.
