Rooms were clean and spacious. At the time of our stay they gave us 20% discount when dining in their restaurant as well. Breakfast was a good selection of hot and cold buffet. Location is right in the heart of Auckland's CBD and was reasonably priced, with parking available on a first-come first-serve basis. A good place to stay.

Featured great meeting spaces. And, your wait staff was very accommodating and patient! However, your hotel rooms were exceptionally cold to sleep in. Need to keep the rooms warmer during the winter months. All the rooms should have extra blankets in them.
