Nice stay, but secluded
Pros:

The views are very nice, we were in room 329, so the windows have a direct view to the mountains. Modern room, we had a couch and kitchenette too. The wifi works fine, you can share the screen of your device to the TV for Netflix.

Cons:

Overall things are good, just some things to keep in mind before booking:
The location is rather secluded. Luckily the water taxi goes directly to the town centre, but yeah, no shops nothing nearby. The car drive to the centre can also take a long time.
As of the room, the showerhead had a low pressure. TV could be smart, the screen sharing was rather inconvenient. There is an under the sink light in the bathroom that is motion detect, that you cant turn off. The bathroom door is glass sliding door, which gives virtually no privacy. No outlets near the bed.

Also, there is 300 NZD security deposit while checking in, keep that in mind.

Pros:

The room, location..and facilities on site were perfect.

Cons:

The breakfast was horrible. Very little options and no halal options. I've never experienced this with any hilton hotel before. Was quite dissapointed after having spent so much in the room with breakfast included.
