Sadly the spa pool was cold and murky and the following morning it was unavailable. We pay big prices to have these amenities and they are unavailable, very disappointing

Adina Apartment Hotel Auckland Britomart
Great location right beside Spark Arena, and within easy walking distance to Britomart, and Queen Street. Comfy bed, but limited coffee & tea supplies. Reception team helpful but not particularly friendly. Yummy chicken burger via very prompt room service. Overall would stay again.
