The hotel is brilliantly located right on the lakefront. The superior king lakeside rooms are lovely and the bed absolutely massive (biggest in 2 months in Oz/NZ). It isnt walkable to the town but Ubers are easily found.

Ok, I hope this doesn't get posted but the hotel gets to read it. Your hotel I love. Every time i come home to NZ I try to stay. It brings back so many memories as a kid. I do have some recommendations. The Hotel front desk rocked. They cheerful, polite and over the top helpful with all requests. The dining room needs some staff training. The food was awesome but the lack of smoothness and smiles was distracting. Knowing where to present food from and retrieve was disappointing. Ran into the chef in the hallway, female, if I am correct, full of smiles and hellos. The staff not so much. That was a pity. Need to soften those edges and polish those skills in an upscale eatery. Food rocked!!

The room had a balcony that looked out over the lake. The bar/ lounge area was very inviting and comfortable with great live music Friday night. Our only disappointment was the restaurant. A very limited menu. Th3 seafood pasta had very little seafood in it and the pizza was one of th3 worst I have had. Butter chicken was excellent.
