We enjoyed a lovely stay - the room was exactly as pictured on the website - comfy and clean. The management and staff are very helpful and very nice. Pickup at the airport was prearranged (must request 24 hours in advance and provide flight info - easily accomplished via the email address link on their website) for $10NZ each and so appreciated after our long flight (Ubers are also readily available). The on-site restaurant, Fig, offered a nice selection of foods and we enjoyed small plates on arrival and a great dinner on another evening. Service was friendly and spot on. The area around the hotel is walkable, with additional restaurants and a large shopping mall and grocery store close by. Highly recommend 😊

Very nice and helpful check-in staff. Clean hotel, very nice room (makeup mirror settings in bathroom!), free parking, and about 15 min drive to town center. Restaurants and gas nearby. Would definitely stay there again. I think you need a car for the location I think.

An overnight stay for work, room was clean and tidy. A smallish room down on the ground floor, would have no problems staying again. Met some friends for drinks before dinner and was very comfortable in the bar. Staff helpful and friendly. A short drive or taxi to town.
