The room was nice, clean and spacious.
The service and amenities were fantastic.
The view was of a carpark and other buildings, making the room quite dark which made it a little depressing to spend a lot of time in.

We stayed 2 nights and really enjoyed the convenience of an apartment style hotel room with a fully functional and very modern kitchenette. The location of the Quest hotel on Lambton Quay couldn't have been better for shopping and restaurants. Had a great stay.
