The Abstract Hotel is an inner city gem!
Pros:

The Abstract is a classy boutique hotel amongst a plethora of sterile, high rise, chain-hotel options. The common areas were elegant and inviting, and the rooms and bathrooms were spacious and comfortable. Every detail has been considered, right down to the kiwiana jet planes and jaffas at reception. Excellent options for late check out too!

Geschmackvoll, gute Lage, nettes Personal, sehr gutes Frühstück
Cons:

Leider klickt im Zimmer alle 20 Sekunden eine Sicherung in einem Sicherungskasten. Nicht laut aber für empfindliche Ohren etwas nervig.

Good for a short stay
Pros:

Good location and rooms were tidy, and looked nice. Overall a pleasant stay, and the front desk were nice as well.

Cons:

Rooms were quite cramped, the bed being in a nook in the room meant that it was difficult to fit 2 people. It also got quite warm and stuffy in the rooms.

Great location but with no air con, not somewhere we could relax or sleep.
Pros:

The location was very central. You can walk into Ponsonby/Queen St easily. Otherwise you can bus or uber no problem

Cons:

No air con! It was so hot that it was really hard to sleep. It was much hotter inside the room then being outside to hotel, so it was uncomfortable to spend time in the room unless you needed to. Sadly, this really affected what would othewise have been an enjoyable trip and took away from a Hotel that was in all otherways fantastic.
I saw the Hotel responded to this saying there is a fan.. there was, but it did not make a difference, and was noisy to have going all night. I would stay here doing winter anytime, but not in summer.
