Doris, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

We stayed in one of the two apartments. It smelt damp, the bed was very hard and uncomfortable and the couches had stains on them. Unfortunately the beautiful view didn't make up for that and the sauna didn't seem to ever get to temperature.
Anna, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We had the villa for one night and wish to stay there much longer. The location is very quiet, nice view towards Auckland. We can definitely recommend the accommodation.

Sharon, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This is an older hotel that's absolutely full of character and should be enjoyed for what it is. We totally loved our stay there and will definitely be back. It's in a stunning location, the staff are all super friendly, it has a great restaurant overlooking Auckland, and the rooms are comfortable. It's not perfect and that's part of its charm, but it is unique and fun.
