Our plane was delayed and we arrived at 3 AM. We were so glad we had booked this hotel—it’s within walking distance of the airport (a shuttle bus is also available, but we chose to walk). The staff were fantastic. Cody was especially knowledgeable and gave us excellent tips and an itinerary for our South Island road trip. Thank you

A great hotel minutes from the terminal. Surpassed my expectations of an airport hotel. Was modern, loads of amenities and staff super helpful. Free transfer bus to terminal was great and available 24/7. Great value for money too! Would recommend.
