Great hotel, amazing food & saw Greg Davies!
Pros:

We mainly come to Auckland to go to comedy shows (Sky City Theatre, Kiri Te Kanawa Theatre, the Town Hall and Spark Arena) and we love staying here. It is truly central, plus there are some really good restaurants close by. This time, when we checked in, the staff member mentioned in passing that it was our 27th time staying here and then said … “Welcome Home”.

Cons:

Nothing.
