Te Aro

10/10 Exceptional

Spacious room and newly renovated bathroom. Good bed. Friendly staff. The hotel web site warns that it can be noisy on weekends due to the bar, but I was there on a Wednesday night and it was very quiet. Came from airport at 1am and access and check-in was fine. Good value and I would stay there again mid-week. There was a movable bar radiator in the room which (in my opinion) was a completely unnecessary fire hazard, given there was a proper wall heater bolted to the wall.
