Guest Ratings & Reviews
I had a delightful stay at the hotel. The rooms were clean and spacious, with a very comfy bed. The staff was incredibly helpful and friendly. The location was central, with a great selection of nearby restaurants. However, the constant noise from the freight rail line next door was a downside.
My stay at the hotel was fantastic. The room I had was warm, clean, very tidy, and modern, and the location was excellent. However, the service was a bit mixed; some staff were very helpful and friendly, but others were unhelpful and slow to respond. The hotel's dining options were decent but not exceptional. The location was perfect for exploring the area, with plenty of restaurants within walking distance. Overall, a comfortable and enjoyable stay with a few minor hiccups.
Upon entering the room, I noticed a not-so-pleasant scent, probably due to the older air-con filters. However, the balcony offered a lovely view of Tauranga City, and the room had a large shower and spa bath. Being on a high floor slightly obstructed the view, but overall, it was still enjoyable.
The hotel offers fantastic rooms with a huge comfy bed and great facilities, although it can be a bit noisy due to its proximity to the elevator. The service was excellent, with friendly and welcoming staff who went above and beyond to cater to our needs. The location is perfect, very central and close to everything we needed, though there were sometimes long waits. The dining experience was good but could be confusing with advanced orders. Overall, a great stay with some minor issues.
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The rooms were nice and clean, although the view from the back wasn't too great. The service was excellent, with the staff being accommodating and friendly. The location was convenient, with easy access to dining areas and a beautiful view. The dining experience was good overall. There were both positive and negative aspects that stood out during my visit.
