We were put here by our travel agent who believed we'd enjoy being in this neighbourhood of Auckland. Turned out we were in the wrong location.

We were put here by our travel agent who believed we'd enjoy being in this neighbourhood of Auckland. Turned out we were in the wrong location. The hotel itself is unusual: an older building converted to several small suites. We had been in a huge suite in an upscale lodge the nights before, so we were under-whelmed when we arrived here. We went out to at dinnertime to explore the neighbourhood on foot and found we didn't resonate with the younger, funkier crowd. We really wanted to be in the harbour area, so we asked to cancel our second night. Our host was most gracious, allowing us to move without penalty. And, we left behind an item in the room. Our host contacted us in the new hotel and drove the time to us. That generous act greatly impressed us. We conclude we'd have been fine there except for the location.

A 1st class hotel located in Ponsonby, a walkable Auckland neighborhood with lots of food and shopping options. The hotel is a small B&B, professionally run with a lovely wine/beer happy hour and included, stocked fridge in the room. Breakfast was amazing with delicious options such as an eggs benedict on a potato rosti, or pancakes, added to a delicious continental breakfast of fresh fruit, yogurt and breads. Uber to the musuem and downtown Auckland was around 20 AUS. Read more
