Lovely historic hotel.

Only downside was vehicle noise (there were quite a few ‘cruisers’ with loud exhausts and a ridiculously loud Harley Davidson motorcycle driving past repeatedly, but all quietened down at about 10pm.

As it was Xmas I presume the staff were on leave and so the rubbish etc weren’t emptied and there wasn’t anything like bins available so we could dispose of them I guess it’s why our room was invaded with ants luckily it was only in the kitchen walls and floor and kitchen top while there was tea coffee available no milk offered and supply was only for one day else beds were comfy slept soundly and clean facilities

Unexpected luxury ❣️

A latish checkin for us ( dire Auckland traffic 😩) Not a problem, as Bar Staff had all our details, so all sorted. The room was a haven! Huge bed, spacious bathroom, everything spotless and lots of towels! Extra bikkies with our coffee too ❣️ Everything just perfect!

I had the really small room. I knew it was going to be tiny when I booked it. All good. The bathroom was a good size. The thing i appreciated was attention to detail, I needed for nothing. They even had actual coffee grounds and a press, which I'm realizing in NZ is the norm. All other hotels I've stayed at here only have instant coffee. They had fresh milk and cookies ( bag). The room was super clean. I ordered the lamb dinner at the pub, super good!!
