Was very nice but does not warrant the extra $100 per night for the extra stare compared to others in the area. Was a bit of a joke having dripping liquid ice trays that ruined the food we paid a lot for in room service. Also the museum is an Appropriate name as they don’t even have smart tvs with Netflix. A lot of nice touches were completely absent which made the 5th star a bit of BS

We loved our stay! Our room was fantastic, and staff and hotel were super cool. Only a couple of gripes - the mattress wasn’t very comfy, and the Friday night street noise was loud. Would definitely recommend, but ask for a higher floor than 3

Booked an Executive Studio as a special treat for my partner and I. Was definitely disappointed with room. Sparsely furnished & an air conditioning unit that rattled like a freight train…couldn’t sleep with it on. On the plus side - a lovely big bath tub to relax in & super convenient location to restaurants. Also able to enjoy QT bar & artwork.

Nice property. Apartment studio room was good with lovely big bath and good size room. Not as seen in picture (smaller than photo) but it was ideal for our stay. The art work at this hotel is really interesting - I enjoyed checking it out. B’fast was nice but I was certain that the avocado on toast was from a jar (not fresh) which was disappointing. It is a little dated and as a huge traveller I wouldn’t say that it’s “luxury” but it’s a great hotel in a great location by the waterfront, Te Papa, shops etc. staff were friendly and helpful.
