Nice hotel, slightly outdated facilities but at the same time characteristic. Very nice staff and the combination of hotel with restaurant and pub is nice if you don't mind the noise.

Courteous staff. No elevator is the main negative concern, but the staff were very helpful in assisting us to carry our luggage up to the 3rd floor.

This historic tavern is well-preserved and well run. My partner & I stayed in-house but had our meals in the bar downstairs and enjoyed the boutique beer/cider. The atmosphere is relaxing & the meals well-presented and very enjoyable. The staff were very welcoming and helpful with any enquiries. The ladies toilet was the only disappointment: it is in dire need of a makeover as it was pretty old, messy & needing some repairs in the walls, etc.

Room was on 3rd floor and as this hotel is very old there wasn’t a lift and had to climb the stairs every single time, staff was helpful with carrying luggage’s all the way up and down bless them. Very annoying to back and forth with stairs specially when your room is at level three. I was exhausted.

I emailed support twice asking about check in and never heard back. We were not aware that the whole hotel would be shutdown with check in being at 2pm. I emailed asking before our stay if we could check in before 2, if we knew this was not possible we would have stayed elsewhere. We ended up missing our booked tours on Waiheke Island which was a shame.
