We had the villa for one night and wish to stay there much longer. The location is very quiet, nice view towards Auckland. We can definitely recommend the accommodation.

This is an older hotel that's absolutely full of character and should be enjoyed for what it is. We totally loved our stay there and will definitely be back. It's in a stunning location, the staff are all super friendly, it has a great restaurant overlooking Auckland, and the rooms are comfortable. It's not perfect and that's part of its charm, but it is unique and fun.

Stayed for 4 days very beautiful place to stay, fresh air and friendly staff. Fresh towels everyday. Gym room was good. Pool was nice too. Only gave 4 stars due to noise from other tourists in the hotel, too noisy late at night, when trying to rest. I would stay here again, thankyou.
