Excellent Hotel
This is a beautiful hotel, "off the beaten track", near the North Shore of the North Island. If you want to be away from the city, this is the place to stay. Great accommodations, great service, an excellent selection of eating places and shops nearby, and a lovely beach for taking a stroll, in a lovely residential community. The service was excellent, with a very friendly and competent staff. The room was well-appointed, and a great value. The restaurant was a bit pricey, but a good quality. We rented a car, so we werent depending on public transportation, but there is a bus terminal nearby. Not sure how accessible touring buses would be, but you could always call before booking. They had a well-equipped fitness facility, complete with trainers, and an outdoor pool and hot tub. We were very satisfied with our experience at the Spencer.

Wonderful Experience
The staff were very helpful and did everything we could have wanted. (airport transfers, etc,) The area around the hotel had wonderful small shops, cafes, bookshops. Being close to the beach was great.
