Always a great stay.
Pros:

Charming hotel within easy travelling distance of Hampton Downs Race track and Auckland.
Fantastic room and great restaurant and bar. Comfortable seating in the bar is rare these days, this is sofa heaven.
Staff are very friendly and the food from the restaurant is great.
We come here every time we need to stay over for events.
