Staff were lovely. Bed was super comfortable. The access to the hotel was poorly communicated. We thought the entry of the hotel was on the waterfront - easy to come and go. We had to walk up stairs which were horrific, especially with luggage (we didn’t know about the road) or we had to walk up and down a hill which was the equivalent of 7 floors. If we had known then we would have changed hotels to be honest. An email two days before explaining a road change what taxi/uber drivers didn’t follow was poor. Then finding the actual entry was difficult. We luckily saw a staff member who explained to us where to go. There was no signs except for on the entrance door. We had two spoons. That was all the cutlery. We understood there was no kitchen but a knife and fork would have been handy especially for the price of the room. View was lovely. Room was quiet.

The hotel location is very nice, right across from Oriental Bay and easy walk to downtown. The restaraunt doesn’t really seem to serve the purpose of food for guests. It is more like an upscale city restaraunt. This meant we always ate out.

Overall getting an email less than 24 hours before check in and no way of communicating with the site was very frustrating and unprofessional by both parties. I would not recommend anyone to do that with either of you as the experience was stressful and not a good way to start a holiday.

The hotel was for a conference, the venue was clean and convenient. Staff were very friendly and accomodating. The room i had was dated but exceptionally clean. The view from my window was of the back of the hotel, which was a run down street area. Easy walk to the harbour . Amenities outside the Hotel were a 10 min walk. The hitel has amasing sea views if you are lucky to get the room with the views.

We always stay at the Copthorne for its super handy location, close to shops, restaurants and the centre of town and we love the close up views of the harbour from the King Harbour View room we always choose. The staff are always welcoming, friendly and helpful. I would like a plunger in the room rather than instant coffee for the price you pay though.
