Other than weak wifi signal we truly enjoyed our three nights stay. It's a beautiful estate in a beautiful natural setting, a great place for relaxing and going around exploring the nature beauty. The restaurant is great with limited choices but everything is cooked at a fine dining quality.

This is a unique boutique hotel located in the residential Ponsonby neighborhood. You will feel like a local walking to the dozens of restaurants and shops which are just steps away, while you can also walk to the Auckland waterfront in about 30 minutes or take an Uber for under $10.
The rooms are small and have no desks if you plan to work. But, the breakfast which is delivered to your room is absolutely outstanding, more delicious food than I could ever eat. The staff is very welcoming and...

Fantastic boutique hotel! We came from Philadelphia, USA, and have already decided we will be traveling the 8,700 miles to stay at the Convent Hotel again.
The chapel room had a garden wall that made the room always smell like flowers. The staff were extremely kind, inclusive, and accommodating. The Ada restaurant had the best breakfast I’ve ever had, and the best dinners that we had in our 5 days in Auckland. Parking and internet are included, and it was a decent walking distance to great food...

Excellent proximity to Westlake Girls High School where my wife was working, to the bus station - great transport to city and other areas, and to super eating/drinking places nearby. Easy to find from the motorway.

Full of character this delightful hotel is a homely b&b with all the amenities and attention to details you want when traveling. I had the blue room. It was spacious and had a kitchenette and lounge area. The bathroom was basic but spotless and the water was hot with high quality eco friendly shampoo etc.
The breakfast was top quality and cooked to order. If you prefer privacy your room has a fully stocked minibar or if you’re feeling social there is an honesty bar in the large spacious lounge...

This hotel was an absolute dream. It was a perfect combination of luxury and peace. I will absolutely be returning here. It was my birthday, and they were so sweet to me! Everything was clean, and we had a beautiful view, the food was delicious, we had a lovely time. Again, highly recommend.

The Indigo is an excellent hotel in all respects except the restaurant. The Bistro Saine, which is part of the hotel, is far too small to accommodate all the hotel guests, so long line-ups form for breakfast - and no prior reservations are available. Reservations are required for dinner and the evening dining experience has small portions, high prices and very slow table service. Plan to take 2 hours to eat supper.
Fortunately there are plenty of great restaurants in the local area.

Just one night - everything was great. Great view, great service, great room. Everything works in that hotel, fires on all cylinders.
Only negative was a bit of noise from the street later into the night.

The property was very clean but the standout reason I would go there again is the staff. We had a small issue with breakfast one morning and they went above and beyond to rectify it. They were kind enough to get us a van for our ride back to the airport and when my son accidentally left his wallet in the van, I called the hotel. They were able to reach (by some means) the driver who returned to the airport with the wallet. Every member of the staff ensured that our stay was memorable.

Excellent location. Staff extremely helpful, courteous, and went out of their way to help us find public transport suitable to our needs. The room was spacious and quite. There is a lot of construction around the hotel, which complicates traffic. Tons of restaurants within wañking distance. Would stay again.
