I loved how central the accommodation is. Walking distance to the shops & cafes. Room service was great. Having a restaurant, bar & offstreet parking is excellent. Staff was very friendly & professional. Highly recommend.

So nice to stay in a historic (old by NZ standards at least :-D) building. It is beautiful and should be celebrated like that. It was also lovely to read the pamphlet about its history. I wish they could put the parapet back up!
