Lovely courtside room. Only problem was the ants that filled the rubbish bin when we were there for only a few hours and the slow reception service. Everything else was great including our evening spa in the rain

Clinton

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
The staff were generally helpful, but for the price paid, the rooms felt quite dated. I also had an uncomfortable experience when using the microwave in the laundry room to heat milk for my baby — the security staff on Sunday, 8 June gave me a suspicious look and questioned what I was doing. As a parent, this made me feel quite unwelcome. It would be great if all staff, including security, were briefed to approach guests in a more courteous and understanding manner.

All we wanted was a good relax and watch tv in bed after a hard long week after a tangi. Instead after and hour of trying to get tv working I call reception to be told tvs aren’t working and no discount was offered. Was clean and tidy and comfortable which was a plus.

We stayed in the thick of Waitangi preparations, so it was understandably busy. The room was fine enough for our needs as we were only there for two nights. Staff were helpful, and checking in and out was easy. We were misgendered on our welcome letter (Mr & Mrs Sykes, instead of Mr & Mr Sykes), but mistakes happen
