Evening meal was superb. The surroundings obviously fab. I will go again and take my husband and heres how the perfect day would go - walk in the waitaks with a packed lunch, checkin to the hotel, shower (it was a great shower and I am very fussy about that) repair to the eclectic incredibly comfortable lounge and order a gin, head to the restaurant having pre-ordered a table by the window (night view to the city is speccy) and sleep in extremely comfy bed. Done.

Ok, it's not near Auckland but I didn't need to be near it for this trip. This hotel offers total peace and an incredible view. Room was very spacious and comfortable. The common lounge is a bit full with "heavy furniture" but gives it a unique aura. Breakfast buffet and a-la-carte were excellent and generous. Loved the powder coffee and french-press coffee machine in the room. Very kind ladies, they waited up for me until 0:30 as my plane was late.

The bed was very comfortable. However did not realise we were being put in the loft. Struggled with my suitcase. And there was no aircon, so opened a window which rattled with the wind.

Janice

The view is spectacular and the place is located in midst of a forest.

“Nice family run hotel - great breakfast!”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Stayed 1 night
The room I had booked (deluxe) was very dated, so as the hotel was empty we asked to upgrade our room. An excellent decision - the Premier Room are far nicer and modern, airy and with great views. Hot/cold water seemed to be a bit of an issue in our shower but they were working on this. Felt the upgrade cost of $50 was worth it if a tad unexpected given the hotel was empty anyway :-( - and we had already paid a fairly high price for the room for booking early even though the hotel turned out to be empty. My recommendation is to go for the Premier Room if you can afford it. Overall, our one night in the hotel was the most expensive of the trip when you include dinner (unless you're prepared to drive, the restaurant on site was good) - great for one night but could get a bit pricey if we had stayed there longer.
Restaurant was really nice - great views, food nicely prepared. Breakfast was amazing (best we had while travelling in NZ). The room (after we had changed it) was great.

The staff weren't very onto it. We had to return to reception to complete check in after we had already checked in. Staff also complained about other people to us which was a bit awkward. Fish smell in the reception area when we arrived.
I liked the location and the views of the city and forest. The room in the new section of the resort was lovely.

They Arrived at arranged time to be taken to a lovely room that had not been serviced. Dirty dishes empty alcohol bottle towels and bedding strewn around. Went to ask to have room serviced. Waited an hour in limbo. Offered a coffee that turned out to be a hot chocolate. No caffeine No upgrade or apology. Such a disappointment as it’s a lovely place but something seriously wrong here. Never struck anything like it before.
an amazing setting and view let down by dreadful service. Shouted my son to a night off after working hard on a property renovation. Not what I’d hoped for

Not a thing!
What a glamorous and friendly place to stay. We were received warmly and stayed in a most comfortable twin room overlooking the pool, with fresh fruit and plunger coffee provided. The chef personally discussed our request for the evening meal, which was delicious and enjoyed looking at the lights of Auckland. I would definitely stay again if given the opportunity.

“The ideal romantic stay whatever the time of year - highly recommended!”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Stayed 1 night
The GPS directing us to the lodge took us on a long, winding drive down Mountain Rd and up a dead-end road (which probably backs onto the property). Beware the GPS! Also, while the food was absolutely fabulous, it was on the pricey side.
The staff were so friendly and helpful. The location was breathtaking with views across to the city and Rangitoto Island. The native bush was stunning with lovely walks around the property. Room was very comfortable and the bathroom was spacious and new.

There was a huge amount of dust behind the television and on the writing desk that gave me a sore throat, requiring me to check out. Despite this, I was charged one extra night that I didn’t stay at the estate, even though I checked out before 10am. This was pretty poor customer service.
Great bed and view.
