The hotel is old-fashioned, but if you want to stay only one night is alright. Everything, what I needed was close enough.
The staff was helpful and friendly.

Interesting hotel in the historical building with the huge ceiling! Spacious room, very friendly and helpful staff. About 10 min walking from central station

The cleaness is really unsatisfied, but the front desk customer service is great. However, I think I would not choose to trip here anymore.

Huge rooms, the biggest I've had in New Zealand, however the room was sparsely furnished so they could have made better use of the space which was effectively wasted. For instance there were no chairs to sit in. A pair of chairs with a side table would really make a difference. Its a historic hotel but very much 'faded grandeur', however I knew when I booked that the hotel wasn't the most modern and that was ok as I wanted that historic feel. It's not everyday that you stay inthe same hotel that Queen Elizabeth did (in 1953). The bed was comfortable, the shower hot (a huge bathroom too) and the staff were helpful. Great location right in the city centre too.

Overall good value for the price. Should be aware that confirmation email and hotel policy on app says check out is 11 but was provided with information when arriving in the hotel that checkout is 10am.

Very rundown, old musty smell throughout, lift was dodgy, only upside was location.
Lots of noise coming from the street.
Will not be back.

Very accommodating staff. Would of been very glam in its day. Still clean large rooms, right in the middle of town.

A little tired but clean and value for money.
Quiet and relaxing.
Will stay again.
