This is a newer property and it has all the features and amenities expected for a comfortable and restful stay. For example the bathroom lighting and mirrors have multiple settings, and outlets included USB and USBC plugs. Easy to find and parking is simple. It's a 10-15 minute walk to the city center, but there are plenty of restaurants within a 5 minute walk including Vics across the street. The city bus also goes by as well - easy to use the system, but you need cash if you don't have a bus card, and they give change. Definitely recommend and would stay there again!

Highly recommend The Mayfair

The nicest staff ever. This place was adorable (not too crazy about the black walls in the room) but other than that the hotel was amazing! Everything we needed, great location, staff was the friendliest we encountered on our month long trip in NZ.

Make sure to order your pillows, right when you get there! We had a late check-in and all of our pillows were super firm, we tried to call the front, but there was no answer. The next night we had ordered some different pillows and it was much better. Overall, the facility is clean and nice.
