The property was beautifully decorated and the manager who checked us in was super friendly and helpful. He also allowed us to switch rooms to a more quiet room which was really appreciated.

Loved this old building that has been restored to perfection, my only regret was we didn’t get to enjoy it all as this was a very brief visit, but will definitely be back.

Lovely boutique hotel. We also enjoyed the restaurant onsite. Would stay again. Only complaint, which I let them know about, was sewer smell coming out of drain in bathroom.

Unique, clean, and good quality, love the art selection. I like staying in a part of town that is outside of the CBD but still very accessible to all parts of the city.

Absolutely amazing hotel with wonderful staff. The room we stayed in was gorgeous with plenty of amenities to keep us feeling like we’ve been looked after. The hotel itself is so lovely and clearly a lot of love and attention was given to restoring this old convent. I’d highly recommend staying here if you’re visiting Auckland.

It was easy to find, decor was good, but the check-in process was met with an unhappy manager. The website closes at 7pm, but I got through to make a booking at 7.30pm. Nothing was said about this online, so we had to wait for the duty manager to turn up and didn't get to our room til well after 9pm

Very cool property with friendly staff and an excellent and atmospheric bar/restaurant. Walking distance to other restaurants as well. Loved hearing how the building was saved from the wrecking ball by the current owners. We stayed in the handicapped accessible room which had a shower that was open to the bathroom, so a big soggy but otherwise comfortable!

Lots of noise from restaurant as room overlooked the internal courtyard. Not a massive issue but was distracting. Room was quirky and inviting, bed was very comfy and bottomless hot water was wonderful. Would have like opportunity to have breakfast in the restaurant. As a solo traveller, this would haven been nice.

Lovely stay
Unique boutique hotel. Very easy to find. Super helpful and friendly staff who got us checked in early. Lovely attached restaurant.
If parking there, slim entry to parking lot - be mindful of mirrors

Great option for this location. A bit out of the downtown core, but I was not going into downtown. Short walk to Eden Park and highway access. Very interesting building given it was a convent in a previous life. Staff were very nice, polite, and helpful. I had a great stay there.
