Stayed 2 different nights and both on 17th floor with amazing views of the Sky Tower and Harbour bridge. Lovely comfortable and quiet room. Breakfast was good with a wide variety and scrambled eggs which normally let down so many hotels were v good! Pool is great for lengths and location is amazing to enjoy Auckland.

We had a 5* experience from start to finish. It began with the wonderful Jessica. She was so friendly and kind. Our room was ready early, something we really appreciated after nearly 30 hours of traveling, and was amazing. The bed was super comfy and the drapes were blackout. The toiletries were top notch. Unfortunately we only stayed for 2 nights but it definitely got our trip off to a wonderful start!

Marta, Dublin

I arrived on November 24, 2005. Soon after going into my room, a man knocked on my door saying that he was from amenities. I said that i had not ordered anything. He knocked a second time, and I stated again that I had not ordered anything and to go away. This man then opened my door and entered my room. I yelled at him to get out. I called the front desk, who had the general manager call me. The general manager agreed that an employee should not have entered my room without permission. I want to be clear - the issue is that this male employee was told TWICE to go away, and decided to ignore the wishes of a female hotel guest and enter her room anyway. This is disgusting behavior, a violation of privacy and a complete disregard for the safety of women.

The hotel is pretty and staff are courteous, but its just a terrible location to have access to anything not on premises and parking is difficult, even though there is a parking garage. If Sky City’s limited attractions or casino is not the purpose of travel, its not ideal.
