Newly opened and ready to roll, this hotel is your hub for discovering Auckland's CBD. This retreat has everything from elegantly furnished rooms to the Forester Bar & Grill, a top spot for respite, refuelling with classic favourites or easing off with an evening tipple. You're steps away from Viaduct Harbour's buzzing food scene, so grab a seat, watch the boats go by and enjoy a cocktail or two.
As an island nation, there are plenty of opportunities for exploring. Adventure lovers can kayak for an hour to Rangitoto Island, the youngest volcanic island in the Hauraki Gulf. Those who prefer a slower-paced vacation can take a leisurely 40-minute ferry to Waiheke Island, a veritable paradise for wine lovers and beachgoers alike.
