Great stay!!
Excellent stay. Rooms were very clean and beds were comfortable. Restaurant onsite was delicious and the indoor pool was a hit with the kiddo. Would definitely stay here again. Especially with the courtesy shuttle to the airport.

Convenient and Comfortable Stay!
Perfect Hotel for a Comfortable Stay Before Departure! We spent our last night here before heading to the airport and were thoroughly impressed. The hotel is clean, comfortable, and offers excellent fitness and pool facilities. The brunch was fantastic, and the customer service was top-notch. While we chose it for its convenience to the airport, it turned out to be a great all-around experience!

Very nice hotel!
Great, clean hotel with a very nice restaurant close to the airport. Nice little indoor pool and hottub and small, but functional gym. Felt very upscale compared to all of our other accommodations throughout NZ. Highly recommended.
