Perfectly average rooms. Brilliant location. Friendly and accomodating staff. Great pub and restaurant below.

Staff was friendly but hiking up 4 floors to get to my room was pretty horrible with luggage.

10.0 / 10.0

No kettle to make a cuppa

2.0 / 10.0

It was horribly dirty, like no one even vacuumed the floor in years. Beds were uncomfortable and broken, very cold, bright from the street lights and noise at night. Horrible experience!

6.0 / 10.0

Pretty old and needs a good refurbishing, the shower head and associated attachment to the shower wall was hanging on byva threadcwas not attached properly. I managed ok but it was a real challenge to stop it fallingboff tgexwall.

8.0 / 10.0

Good based on price. Bathroom is a bit cramped and had some noisy people upstairs

3.0 / 10.0

Checking in was a bit difficult as you have to do it at the restaurant that is attached. This might be because it is the off season or because there are only a handful of rooms.

6.0 / 10.0

Loved the old building, but my room was on top floor and there was no lift, and there were no extra blankets provided so I was cold and there was a leaking cistern somewhere

10.0 / 10.0

4.0 / 10.0

Nice hotel above a brew pub so can get a bit noisy at night but not too bad. The building is historic so no elevator but the staff helped me with my bags. Many things within walking distance.

6.0 / 10.0

The other options in town are way better value for money cheaper parking

3.0 / 10.0

No one was there when I arrived. Doors all locked. Rang bell. Nothing. Luckily someone was coming out and we were able to store luggage. No hair dryer. I didn’t have right outlet converter. They did lend me one!!! Good location and close and walkable for sites!

1.0 / 10.0

While the staff were nice and very helpful , they were battling a building that is old, worn out, and dirty. I have a video of me opening my door with a credit card slipped into the gaping space in the door jamb. Not using the key! The air conditioner was always dripping on the bed and floor and soaked everything which is why it smelled like a swamp. The coffee pot has mold all inside it. Yuck. Cockroaches in bathroom. No lift up 3 flights. Location is fine but this is an old and running brewery pub downstairs. Smells like it. Keep the air conditioner off, open the windows and spray for bugs if you stay here. No paid parking either. Price was great though but we still left early. Not for normal travelers.

8.0 / 10.0

Nice hotel, slightly outdated facilities but at the same time characteristic. Very nice staff and the combination of hotel with restaurant and pub is nice if you don't mind the noise.

8.0 / 10.0

Courteous staff. No elevator is the main negative concern, but the staff were very helpful in assisting us to carry our luggage up to the 3rd floor.

6.0 / 10.0

Room was on 3rd floor and as this hotel is very old there wasn’t a lift and had to climb the stairs every single time, staff was helpful with carrying luggage’s all the way up and down bless them. Very annoying to back and forth with stairs specially when your room is at level three. I was exhausted.

10.0 / 10.0

This historic tavern is well-preserved and well run. My partner & I stayed in-house but had our meals in the bar downstairs and enjoyed the boutique beer/cider. The atmosphere is relaxing & the meals well-presented and very enjoyable. The staff were very welcoming and helpful with any enquiries. The ladies toilet was the only disappointment: it is in dire need of a makeover as it was pretty old, messy & needing some repairs in the walls, etc.

4.0 / 10.0

I emailed support twice asking about check in and never heard back. We were not aware that the whole hotel would be shutdown with check in being at 2pm. I emailed asking before our stay if we could check in before 2, if we knew this was not possible we would have stayed elsewhere. We ended up missing our booked tours on Waiheke Island which was a shame.

2.0 / 10.0

This is a very unpleasant experience of my life. We booked Rayland through Expedia today and when we arrived to hr motel they said they don’t have the bookings and there is no rooms available. We then spoke to customer service at Expedia and they couldn’t resolve that issue and then we paid double the amount to book the Shakespeare hotel for our stay. THIS IS MY WORST EXPERIENCE EVER !!!! The rooms are unclean, aircon isn’t working. The lights are not working, there is no hot water in the shower. The toilet have poo stain on the toilet which wasn’t cleaned before we came in. There is no phone to call the staff members, I have all the photos if you need. My family/friends have been using Expedia for all the bookings but I am going to recommend to stop promoting Expedia and booking through you because it was such a pathetic experience. NEVER BOOKING THROUGH EXPEDIA EVER AGAIN !!!

6.0 / 10.0

I loved the hotel. There were a few small things that were a bit of an issue but everything was perfect. The staff were nice and made check in easy

2.0 / 10.0

Auckland was the last leg of our trip and this was the worst hotel we stayed. Our room was more like an attic and I hit my head against low beams multiple times. The room was not completely cleaned, and the carpet must be as old as the bar.

8.0 / 10.0

Great location and an iconic building

4.0 / 10.0

It was a lovely old pub. Our room was on the third floor up six flights of steps with a heavy suitcase we are in our 60’s the staff didn’t offer to help. Food and beer was excellent

6.0 / 10.0

I had read the reviews before booking, so I was aware of what I might be in for. However, I found the check in quite helpful – there was an issue in the bathroom which staff apologised profusely for and as they were booked out he would have preferred to give me another room, but this understandably wasn’t possible. I arrived quite late, but this wasn’t an issue. It was conveniently located to my workshop and the room was lovely enough for the price. Unfortunately the shower was quite dirty but the room was nice and clean. The only other issue was a loud, drunk person outside in the hallway, but this wasn’t the hotels fault and thankfully it didn’t go on for too long. ☺️
