What a hidden gem!! Highly recommend this place. Somewhere I haven’t heard of and that I’ve come apon before I found this whilst I was looking to stay close to Hampton downs. The room was lovely and warm when we arrived, comfortable bed, luxury underfloor heating and sky tv and a coffee pod machine as a bonus! The icing on the cake was the affordable nights stay! Happy couple 😍

Our room had the air conditioning unit outside the window which kept coming on and off all night. I had asked if the room was quiet!! I was unable to open the window as the room felt airless due to the noise from the unit which was even louder when the window was open.

Disliked: Staff & service
Accommodation was adequate. Service was ok, feels like they were either in training or a wee bit lazy/distracted. Room service request was disappointing- restaurant staff need further training! Restaurant food, sub average - very disappointed.

Amazing little hotel in Tuakau. Far enough from the city to not feel busy but close enough that it’s not a struggle to get into. Absolutely blown away with the presentation of this hotel, really bested all my expectations
