Fick lägenheten på första våningen i hörnet mot vattnet (tror det var 109?) vilket gav en riktigt fin utsikt trots att det var längst ner. Var perfekt för oss som familj med barnvagn att kunna ta lite dagliga promenader i området, bla ner till hamnen där man fick en bra bild av Auckland skyline. Boendet i säg var bra och överensstämde väl med bilderna. ![Solnedgång i vardagsrummet ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/AEB58699ACD01A22AC51365971B4DB93380604691590003343589.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Magnus Stayed 4 nights in Mar 2020 ### 8/10 Good #### Mathias, Kempten 29 Mar 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities gute Lage zur Stadt, man erreicht mit dem Shuttleboat in nächster Nähe binnen 10 min. das Stadzentrum, so ist man nicht auf das Taxi angewiesen.

Check in was 2pm and we arrived at 2.05 planning to have an afternoon nap, then get ready to leave to go to a wedding down the road at 4pm. Unfortunately, the room was not ready, and we had to hang around until 3.10 to get into the room. Whereupon we had to race to get ready in time. If we had known, we wouldve stayed at home and gotten ready there. There were AT LEAST two other guests that this happened to as well, so it wasn’t a one-off occurrence. They offered us late checkout which was of no use to us, then Como breakfast, which TBH, was complete crap. Being your own food. The curtains were coming off their track and there was what looked like a bloodstain on the carpet. Not impressive. Disappointing response when I gave feedback. Judging by other feedback, the management of this hotel has declined in recent years. The chain management needs to step in and sort out. ##### Sarah Stayed 1 night in Feb 2020 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 5 Mar 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities Spacious, clean and convenient. Shower needs fixing, also cupboard doors need to be reattached to the fridge. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2020 ### 6/10 Okay #### Jeremiah 4 Mar 2020 #### Great Auckland Skyline Views The place is a little drive away, but if your willing to commute and go through traffic everyday, the harborside and Auckland skyline views are worth it. The place itself is a little worse for wear and would greatly benefit from a little touch up. Cleanliness was meadiocre. Its a shame because this place has the potential to be one of the best stays (good views, ok commute, good staff) in Auckland. However, during the middle of our stay, we asked our room to be cleaned. Good thing we went back early because we found our hotel room door, wide open, with all our stuff, othes and bags hanging around. I mean, i dont think anything was stolen and it looked like we came back to our stuff like how we left it, but it appeared like the cleaner left our hotel door a-jar after cleaning the room. It looked like theh were understaffed and busy that day, but that was very unacceptable. ##### Jeremiah Stayed 5 nights in Feb 2020 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 4 Mar 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities The room was large and a good price for the area. The kitchen was clean, tidy and kept well. The bathroom was big but a bit run down. I was in a garden apartment and there were ants along the wall in the lounge and into the bedroom. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2020 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller 29 Feb 2020 The room is big, however the wifi is really poor. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2020 ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller 26 Feb 2020 Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Booking stated King size bed we were given Queen size which was extremely soft and uncomfortable Apartment was old and needs redecorating carpets in the apartment are badly stained Restaurant menu was extremely poor and the advertised special we ordered was not available due to delivery problems ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Feb 2020 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 22 Feb 2020 Liked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The apparent was very spacious inside with modern kitchen and bathroom. There is plenty of storage space everywhere, including a walk in robe. The views from room 310 were excellent looking over the harbour and city, although there is a big ugly tree blocking half of it. The apparent windows were very dirty and the balcony was covered in leaves and sap from the tree. Not nice to walk on in bare feet. It is a short walk to the boat harbour and ferry. There are no restaurants or shops nearby, but the restaurant at the resort had nice meals at very reasonable prices. The view from the restaurant was perfect. Overall it was a nice place to stay for the night. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Feb 2020 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller 16 Feb 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Nice view from our suite.

The property was what we needed. The only problem was the room was not ready on check in at the time as other guests over stayed so not their fault. Hotel was fully booked. How ever this was not our problem. We were left waiting with a young family. The room needed the floor cleaned it was stained and messy. We found empty bottles of alcohol under the bed. It must have been a party room. Overall not that impressed as too the cleanliness for the young family. ##### Ajax Stayed 1 night in Dec 2019 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller 5 Jan 2020 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Staff & service Property quite tired and untidy grounds. No one on reception when we checked out just after 8, room still being cleaned at 5pm on arrival, asked for blanket for bed and didn’t arrive. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2020 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Clayton Hotel Düsseldorf City Centre](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dusseldorf-Hotels-Hotel-Nikko-Dusseldorf.h16459.Hotel-Information) > > [Avani Auckland Metropolis Residences](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Auckland-Hotels-Avani-Auckland-Metropolis-Residences.h6374088.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Indigo Barcelona Plaza Espana by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Barcelona-Hotels-Hotel-Indigo-Barcelona-Granvia-Plaza-Espana.h1614045.Hotel-Information) > > [The Convent Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Auckland-Hotels-The-Convent-Hotel.h57330689.Hotel-Information) > > [Cordis, Auckland by Langham Hospitality Group](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Auckland-Hotels-Cordis.h8072.Hotel-Information) > > [SkyCity Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Auckland-Hotels-SkyCity-Hotel.h40995.Hotel-Information) > > [ibis budget Auckland Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Auckland-Hotels-Ibis-Budget-Auckland-Airport.h9144904.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Darlington](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Darlington-Hotels.d4619.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Lugo Rock](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Falmouth-Hotels-Lugo-Rock.h5950436.Hotel-Information) > > [Pestana Berlin Tiergarten](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Berlin-Hotels-Pestana-Berlin-Tiergarten.h4360170.Hotel-Information) > > [Spa Hotels in Arundel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Arundel-Hotels-Spa-Hotels.0-0-d5696-tSpaHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [The All New Grace Bay Suites](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Providenciales-Hotels-THE-ALL-NEW-GRACE-BAY-SUITES.h38338087.Hotel-Information) > > [Naumi Hotel Auckland Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Auckland-Hotels-Naumi-Hotel-Auckland-Airport.h10062481.Hotel-Information) > > [Novotel Auckland Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Auckland-Hotels-Novotel-Auckland-Airport.h4223624.Hotel-Information) > > [Merit Kensington Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Merit-Kensington-Hotel.h1785011.Hotel-Information) > > [Travelodge Hotel Auckland Wynyard Quarter](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Auckland-Hotels-Travelodge-Hotel-Auckland-Wynyard-Quarter.h48652636.Hotel-Information) > > [Sea Breeze Hotel & Apartments](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Fethiye-Hotels-Sea-Breeze-Hotel-Apartments.h19375783.Hotel-Information) > > [The Mole Resort - Hotel rooms](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Umberleigh-Hotels-Highbullen-Hotel-Golf-And-Country-Club.h3551639.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Millennium Auckland](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Auckland-Hotels-Grand-Millennium-Auckland.h408966.Hotel-Information) > > [Mercure Auckland Queen Street](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Auckland-Hotels-Mercure-Auckland-Queen-Street.h63852488.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Westgate-on-Sea](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Westgate-On-Sea-Hotels.d6238811.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Emerald Inn](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Auckland-Hotels-Emerald-Inn.h6317232.Hotel-Information) > > [5 Star Hotels in Mijas Pueblo](https://www.expedia.co.uk/5Star-Mijas-Pueblo-Hotels.s50-0-d6355771.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) ### Flights > [Flights from Edinburgh (EDI) to Arlanda (ARN)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/edi/arn/edinburgh-to-stockholm) > > [Flights from Liverpool (LPL) to Mahón (MAH)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/lpl/mah/liverpool-to-mahon) ### Cars > [Enterprise Car Rentals In Fareham](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Enterprise-Car-Rentals-In-Fareham.d4635-c15.Car-Rental-Guide-Suppliers) ### Packages > [Riverside Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Riverside-Park-Southampton.d6265277.Attraction) > > [Millennium Square](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Millennium-Square-Bristol-Floating-Harbour.d6170572.Attraction) > > [Rangiroa Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rangiroa.d6047708.Holidays-City-Breaks) > > [Kyrgyzstan Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyrgyzstan.d11404.Holidays-City-Breaks)
