A perfect treat for grandchildren 11 and 8 from Gisborne and to attend Weta Workshop unleashed.
Pros:

sauna and swimming pool were a great hit with my 2 granddaughters. It was a real treat for them from Gisborne. Really appreciated being able to leave luggage in room prior to regular check in. Original artworks in foyer are magnificent.
