Very quiet, extremely comfortable and very large bed. Good parking. Didn’t swim but looked nice.
Pros:

I lived in Tauranga for a decade and left recently, but Armitage wasn’t really on my radar. It is an older build hotel but the interior design is pretty good, a very pleasant room. Back to visit family. The central location was excellent and the room was very quiet.

Cons:

Most of the staff were really nice but one in particular was a bit off. I think they’re aiming for an above average experience and front of house was not there in this (singular) experience.

Central, and good sized comfortable rooms
