    Only complaint was absence of towel rack! Definitely first world problem. Essentially nothing I didn't like.

    I always love staying at QT. Funky decor, with great art. Beautiful room with really comfortable bed. Lovely view of the harbour. Great location. Almost next door to Takina Convention Centre, and plenty of cafes/bars/eateries/shops nearby. Could walk either direction along the water. Delicious food from restaurant.

    I didn't like the bed and it made it very hard to sleep as there was a massive dent in it almost felt like a valley it should really be replaced along with the matress protector which I saw when fixing my bed (gross stains all over it in we will say a presumptuous area 🤮) as well as the pillows being super big and not as flat as I'm personally used to, the room was clean all apart from the hanging light having dust on the cord coming down from the ceiling.

    I liked the staff all super lovely and the pool, spa, sauna and gym also the breakfast was great!

    $40 charge for valet parking thought was excessive. Booked harbour view - but this is limited with Te Papa and other buildings - so main view is a bit of the marina … and the car park in front.

    Nice, and clean. Didn’t make use of a lot, was only one night and was really using it just as bed for the night.

    Harbour view wasn't much of a harbour view, and the room was noisy: earplugs just about made it bearable. I'd not put soft cheeses on the same plate as the meat at breakfast myself.

    Hotel was trendy, but still nice. Breakfast was very high quality goods (they were understaffed at Easter, but that can happen). Gym was good enough. Very good location. Lovely bath in my room.

    I didn't realize that breakfast wasn't included. For some reason I was under the impression it was. That's it really.

    Location was good. Room was clean and modern. They gave us a bottle of prosecco and chocolates for our anniversary and flowers which we thought was nice. The bar staff were super helpful and nice too. The art was cool too.

    No restaurants were open, the bar area downstairs is very basic. Probably need more staff on to provide the service they charge for. Also the shampoo conditioner and soap dispensers were all empty in our room. Date repeatedly asking to be refilled, no one came.

    Great location. Beautiful art work. Lovely rooms.

    Room temperature hard to control. Main lobby is dusty in places. The brass faces on the counters should be cleaned regularly as there are always fingermarks on them. Reception and concierge sometimes not staffed. Meals in the lobby bar take a long time to arrive.

    Great location.

    Staff were not welcoming on arrival or helpful with any issues.

    Great location but unfortunately we had a bad experience with some staff and air conditioning issues. Our air conditioner was stuck on heat symbol for 2 nights in summer and no help was given after numerous requests. We had 2 king deluxe rooms and one of the rooms was so uncomfortable that sleep was impossible. Other than that the facilities and amenities were excellent so let’s just hope this is an issue that will be addressed.

    It’s so dark, everywhere you go! I appreciate that it’s mood lighting, but you can’t even do your makeup in the bathroom mirror as the lighting is so poor. It’s like watching one of those shows on Netflix that are so dark that you don’t even know what’s going on. The cleanliness factor isn’t great. Part of our bathroom sink had been cracked and glued back together, there had been holes patched in the walls of our room which were very visible at certain angles, and the windows of our room weren’t very clean (however this could just be due to the salt spray from the harbour?). The water from the shower pretty much runs straight under the shower door into the bathroom, saturating everything in its path. There is almost no space on the bathroom sink to put any of your belongings. Speaking of space, there were small things such as a hanging pendant light shade taking over the bedside table meaning you could barely put anything on it, that were just annoying. The breakfast buffet was extremely limited and disappointing, and the breakfast items on the menu were just bland and didn’t live up to the beautiful surroundings of the restaurant that they were being served in. I wouldn’t recommend upgrading to a Harbour View room, as it’s pretty much just a view of the carpark next door (however the fruit & vege market here on the weekends is quite interesting to watch). Overall, I think I’m being very generous here with my rating, as the negatives just outweigh the positives too much :(

    The location was excellent, directly across the road from Te Papa Museum. There was quite a bit of parking on the side street when we arrived, which was handy. We ended up using the valet service and although quite expensive at $40 a night, it was convenient. The staff were very friendly, and nothing seemed to be a problem for them. Some interesting art to look at throughout the hotel, and the downstairs bar/lobby had a really cool vibe to it. If you opted out of housekeeping for the day, you scored yourself a $10 food & drink voucher which was a nice little bonus.

    Noisy aircon and the extraction fan in bathroom was also noisy. The window latch was broken and when the wind got up was a bit drafty. Didn’t worry so much about that as was summer. Hallways were really dark. Probs for the artwork, cool place to stay but may need a bit of a revamp

    Breakfast was good. Having a swim in the pool was great. Awesome location to shops bars and easy walk to the stadium along the water front Funky decor and some of the artwork was amazing

    They didn’t empty the bin from the previous guests so it had some rubbish from before.

    Cool art in the lobby and hallways, nice room and view.
